The interviewer Speedy Morman has the perfect balance of a flattered fan and a professional, asking all the right questions with the perfect amount of enthusiasm to the legend A.I.
Players didnt dislike Iverson. I never heard Kobe, Shaq, Lebron, Carmelo, Wade, etc say anything bad about Iverson. He was an icon, all the fans had love for Iverson.
like SAS lol...Whenever I go to an NBA game I usually go early to see them warm up. Last man on the bench will hit 10 shots in a row like it aint nothin. Just to make it to the league is damn near impossible never mind actually sticking around for years.
Exactly. I have nothing but respect for these professional athletes. These guys are on the team for a reason. They can come give guys at your local rec center the business
@@kevinflowers463 So true... I seen a 40 year old KG up here in a pre-season game in Ottawa Canada drain eight deep two's in a row, all rain-drop-swishes (none touching the rim) in warm ups- this guy came straight outta high school to.
Much love and respect for one of the best ever. Dude was a stone cold savage on the court. Of the court, one of the most loving, passionate, and loyal people ever. I absolutely LOVE Allen Iverson. Real ass dude.
“I wanted to jump like Mike. I wanted to shoot like Bird. I wanted to pass like Magic. I wanted to be fast like Isaiah. I wanted to rebound like Shaq.” - A.I.
Iverson has one of the smartest endorsement deals ever made which pretty much promises him $800k a /year from Reebok FOR LIFE and after 55yrs he will get 32m's thats crazy. He must've had the worlds best manager or some shit lol. Many people seem to overlook the impact he had on the culture NBA & Hip Hop.
I know the reporter who did the netflix documentary on him. And yes his manager was smart as hell! He purposely set up his kontract this way so he wouldn't bekome another blak athlete who's force to retire and end up bekoming broke!
MJ said he almost cried during AI's documentary and said, "He loves that little guy". MJ respects killers (in the basketball sense), MJ respects the guy coming at your neck, going for the Kill all game long, and willing to leave his whole life on the floor, AI was of that ilk, like Magic, Bird and Kobe, all assassins, all killers.
The thing that caught my attention is the fact that HE KNOWS that he would never be the NBA logo . The NBA and David Stern hated him as much as it gets . He changed the culture , he was rocking way bigger jerseys , he had tattoos all over him and he was real , which is the thing that pissed the NBA the most . He knows that David Stern didn't like him and probably still doesn't and i'm happy for the fact that he scared the shit outta him in the Finals against the Lakers cause the NBA wanted the Lakers to win and A.I. challenged the fuck outta them . Respect for imo being the best and realest player of all time 👏
The. Best player pound for pound. Not enough respect for him at all. Remember all them Big East battles with him an Ray Allen. Basketball is not the same witout him or big east. Easily my favorite player all ♥. We talking bout practice! Dam he showed up on game day all heart. Love watching him play. Just gritty, fasf, and rutless on the court fuck any haters this dude was the real deal. God dam he made me have goosebumps when he played. He ain't broke you all are broke. Don't hate just give it up for once. Dame he could play football to. God gifted talent. He had what you can't teach heart and a will not to lose. The best ever to me.
Word. But the sixers never presented a challenge to the Lakers. That finals game 1 was a close one but AI was clearly overwhelmed as the sixers had just Dikembe Mutumbo to support him. The Lakers literally won the next four straight.
@@biggarah11 you must be a kid. The early 2000s was one of the worse periods in the NBA post 1970s. Terrible teams, boring one on one basketball, and a bunch of Euro stiffs being drafted at the top of the lottery. There were some great players but overall the league was hurting.
Israel Rosario Jr. commercially it wasn't doing good with the mainstream media but I think he meant the culture and the time, It was really great being a fan back then now there's so many casual fans and fake fans, back then only basketball fans watched basketball. But you can't call it boring there were a bunch of young iconic stars that came along with that era no one had seen an Allen Iverson before, Vince Carter dunking antics along with TMAC and Kobe , Kidd and Nash playmaking skills, The PF of early 00's, Shaq blah blah I'm getting off the subway now lol cya
@@myd0ugie commercially it wasn't doing well because the teams were terrible outside of the early 00's Lakers and a small handful of others like the Kings, Mavs, Spurs (who were boring), Nets etc. And, yes, I did say that there were some good young stars but overall there weren't enough of them to make up for the poor style of play and the bad teams everywhere. Everybody was trying to be an MJ rip off. I personally enjoyed it because I'm a basketball fan and fan of the NBA but it was a low period overall compared to the 80s, 90s and where we are now...even though I'm not crazy about the new rules in today's NBA. I just don't want us to overstate it by saying it was a legendary time when it wasn't. A lot of terrible basketball.
That story where AI said he jumped on Shaq going for a dunk and Shaq took him up with him and still threw it down, then Kobe said to AI "are you trying to die" 😂😭😂😭
Dj Omega Red is* the culture.. all the athletes today (nba,nfl,mlb) following AI trend. And I’m not sure that they’re even aware he’s the reason behind the look
MackinShizzaveli he brought way more than street culture to the spotlight he brought individualism and self expression to the forefront no matter how he chose to express that he went against the grain so players today can be more self expressive and not get fined for it.
This guy went to bethel high school in my district. I knew him from football, he was insane. I heard there was a time he threw a TD, ran a TD, caught a TD and returned a TD all in one game. I had no idea he even played basketball until he got into trouble at a bowling alley before college and they talked about losing much of his basketball scholarships opportunities.
I saw Allen Iverson play in his last two high school basketball games, during his junior year. But the first time I heard about him was when he was a 10th-grader, back when USA Today used to report daily on high school sports from every state. I remember reading that Allen Iverson, a sophomore, intercepted 13 passes this year and made first-team All-State. Allen Iverson was incredible playing for Bethel High.
Woke up and watched this 💯 🔥 can’t nothing or nobody ruin my day! My fav ball player of all time. Awesome job on the questions they were fresh and creative. #TheAnswer#D🌹 all day!
Greg Hubbard That’s funny. AI was great but not that damn great. ‘PRACTICE! PRACTICE!’ something you would have never heard from Kobe. He was a professional before, during and after the game.
@GPLOCK it's an expression. Kobe was named the black mamba in his playing days, known for his fierce competitiveness. Black mamba snakes are one of the deadliest poisonous snakes in the world. When Kenyon Martin was talking trash to him he was having a mediocre night, but he essentially wakened the beast inside him and destroyed them scoring 49 points.
pogiazz1 not true Kobe scored over 20 in the 1st so he started hot, it was game 1 where Kobe went I think 10 for 30 then the media was like Kenyon can guard Kobe then he score 49 with 10 assists the next game and torched him the rest of the series
Man, you know you're a good interviewer when you get A.I. talking so passionately about his babies. This was a great interview. It wasn't an interview, though, this was just a heart to heart conversation, one of my all-time favs. Thanks Iverson and Complex.
This man was a warrior. Left everything on the court, us people in Philadelphia embraced his blue collar work ethic and independent attitude. Props to AI and thanks for the memories.....
AI is one of the most humblest Superstars. Always give players full genuine credit whether they were players who played before him, with him , or after him
AI was a stone cold killa on the court, all these youngsters talkn bout Kyrie, Steph etc.. they have nothing on this man. Played every play like it was his last and was ruthless at getting to the rim. Like Jadakiss said “They even put a zone in the league to try stop him” Thanks for the memories Iverson, one of the greatest to ever lace em up.
I am huge AI fan. Steph is cold af shots on point like a mf totally different game than AI can't compare them two at all. Steph dont need to take 10 shots to only make 3 of them. Again everybody who knows me knows AI my guy. Steph keeps all his props he has earned. I'm going to speak the realistic truth tho
XJ9000 X I’ve never seen Jordan at that table answering questions with his kids. If you’re telling the truth then I stand corrected. I never seen it though.
XJ9000 X I’m not talking about after winning a chip when everybody is with their family. I’m talking about the trend you now see with athletes (especially NBA players) bringing kids to the press conference. After they shower & change, before they leave they go in the press room with kids.
One of the best interviews I’ve seen. Hands down. Not just basketball players, but in general. Hats off to the guy doing the interview and for Complex for picking this guy to do the interview.
My kid is 10 yrs old and his favorite player is Iverson thanks to youtube. He plays basketball since he was 5 yrs and tries to imitate his moves all the time. The smallest on his team and always attacks the rim🤦🏻♂️😂.
IamKOKAYN MJ called him a bitch as a rookie that’s harsh so I’m glad AI got him back. Offense has the advantage over defense so it’s no shame in getting crossed up. MJ was closer than I thought he’d be to blocking him after getting shook. He got back quick but AI got him. I was watching that game
757 born and raised. Growing up every kid had a headband and arm sleeve, EVERY KID. 4x tall tees, big ass earrings that made your ear lobes hang 😂. But A.I was the TRUTH. Every kid from the 757 looked up to A.I. 🐐
That interviewer was mad real bro, the whole interview went mad smooth cuz of him. You could tell he was a big fan and he did his homework. Very good job
I love hearing these stories. AI is definitely one of the top 10 most influential players of all time...bringing the hip hop flavor to the NBA...keep it rollin AI...your legacy is up there with the greatest of all time....love that Reebok is still making your kicks..
This guy was amazing. Nuff respect to A.I. Who else remembers the double crosover on MJ and then hit the shot. I remember him having short hair. What a legend.
Way to go Complex - this interviewer gets it. He’s smooth, knowledgable, & asked all the correct questions
This was incredibly good
I definitely agree.. it was real fluid
AGREED. I enjoyed that b.
Hat tip to the interviewer. He definitely got it right with this one.
Right and didnt ask questions like what was it like to cross jordan lol . but what about practice ?
This is literally a perfect interview. Iverson was open and honest, the journalist did not say um or struggle. Legit best interview ever.
Absolutely. It starts with AI being *REAL* . Real as it gets. And then the interviewer did it right.
Dude is comfortable in his own skin. Can't beat that at all.

That dude is a great interviewer. Respect and salute for this awesome 24 mins of conversation
His Reebok sneakers are highly underestimated, incredible quality and comfort .
All I wear is answer shoes
@Jamal Vines how
@Jamal Vines fool you crazy af his shoes were were top quality
@Jamal Vines nigga I wear iverson cuz everyone wear fuckin Jordan's n kayne's n LeBron n all other types of shoes I'm not kid bruh
That's cool and all but these shoes are ugly as hell.
Most hated and uncelebrated player in history. The refs were against him. The league and hundreds of players. He is still a champion in my book.
Love to hear him speak. So honest and humble and REAL!
the refs gave him more fake foul calls then almost anyone and refused to call carry and palming against them.
A.I what could've been of em.
Players didnt dislike Iverson. I never heard Kobe, Shaq, Lebron, Carmelo, Wade, etc say anything bad about Iverson. He was an icon, all the fans had love for Iverson.
Real talk bro I’m go a step further in my opinion Allen was better then Kobe in my book fam
Soooo happy he acknowledge the "bums" on the team. I hate when critics act like they didn't work hard to get there.

his agent deserves props

My kid is 10 yrs old and his favorite player is Iverson thanks to youtube. He plays basketball since he was 5 yrs and tries to imitate his moves all the time. The smallest on his team and always attacks the rim🤦🏻♂️😂.
El Ovni nice hell adapt to his style and grow from it, only making em a better player. TIMING IS EVERTHING THOUGH
Always a small guy's fave
My favourite player ever, such an inspirational character.
Kobe's stories told by other greats are always so amazing and inspiring.
7:12-- " once I got to the league I was gonna try my move on the best so....he was just the victim that night"
I was weak when he said that 😂😂😂
Savage af good expression shows he still heartless on that court.
U suc
Yea that was cold
Real shit💯
All the questions i would ask AI if I had the chance. Well done interview. AI super chill. Everyone's big bro coming up in the 90s
Man do you know how Cold Blooded you gotta be to be able to call MJ a victim... even if it's for one play.... A.I. the God
Every body in hood watched his moves
IamKOKAYN I thought I heard that wrong the 1st time lol
LOL that's what i liked about that play as much as MJ is a king in his own right A.I. took the teacher to school on that one and didn't give a fucc!!!
IamKOKAYN MJ called him a bitch as a rookie that’s harsh so I’m glad AI got him back. Offense has the advantage over defense so it’s no shame in getting crossed up. MJ was closer than I thought he’d be to blocking him after getting shook. He got back quick but AI got him. I was watching that game
AQUAPHREESH193 the moment and second he did, that game MJ went in but all people remember was AI crossover lol
“are you trying to die” kobe voice would have been hilarious
By far the best iverson interview I’ve ever seen S/O 2 speedy n A.I complex been stepping it up 🔥
favorite player growing up hands down.
I swear A.I got to be one of the realist dudes.
Yoooo complex , Speedy morman is the truth, I never watch interviews all the way through but this got me, love to AI
The best 6'0 n under player in the history of nba
Nah Isiah Thomas
@Da Sh he is not the best 6'5 and under player ever
He is the best pg
@Da Sh na. U reaching strong
Not even debatable.
Don't underestimate him, this guy was an iron man
Nobody underestimates him
Fa Sho!
He had to be who was he gonna dish it out to.....Van Horn and his compression socks.

This was a great interview. It sounds like those chairs had their own entire conversation as well.
757 born and raised. Growing up every kid had a headband and arm sleeve, EVERY KID. 4x tall tees, big ass earrings that made your ear lobes hang 😂. But A.I was the TRUTH. Every kid from the 757 looked up to A.I. 🐐
lol the seven cities is the home of trendsetters forreal from Timbaland to the Neptunes to Missy lol something in them Virginia waters

This guy was amazing. Nuff respect to A.I.
Who else remembers the double crosover on MJ and then hit the shot. I remember him having short hair.
What a legend.
when asked how he was doing, his response was "can't call it."
felt that in the soul Iverson a true one.
Va shit
Its a Bad News thing. Didn't expect u to understand 🤣😂🤣
VA SHIT
Faaaacts!
That a 757 thing. It’s nothin bad or good. lol
"Are you trying to die?!" I'm dead XD
They shook the tree and the mamba fell out. I like that, RIP Mamba. Good to see the mutual respect between 2 phenomenal ballers. Iron sharpens Iron
Pound for Pound the Greatest to ever do it! 🐐🐐🐐🐐
Habib Bundu maybe isiah
Naw, that'll be Isaiah Lord Thomas III
Habib Bundu, yeah hE's definitely O.N.E of the World's GreAtest💎
A.I. Put MJ on Skates! like Yoooo, that's just KRAZY but his Fearlessness and Heart is exactly why he My Fav🏀rite
18:42 "I'm the franchise player" LEGENDARY
Great questions. Not the same ol questions
I live in Philly and AI is a local, I see him at the casino, at comedy clubs, strip clubs. He out.
He was a regular at the Piccadilly. You didn’t even flinch when he was in there. It was normal. Dude would drop 50 then go to the strip Club lol
@@brkjeff when he's in the A
He be here in charlotte alot too
He's a regular out here in DC at MGM National casino too... this dude might have clones. lol
Malcolm Darden he be at mgm and motor city casino here in Detroit also
Whether good or bad iverson lived life how he wanted...balance is key he looks balanced now
A. I. my fave player still keep a pair of the questions and the answers in my 👟 collection to this day...... 🐐🏀🥇
Only AI can call LBJ a "little dude" and "my little guy" lol ... AI is the truth though.
"He was just a victim that night" -AI talking about MJ 👀🤯
You caught that to? Lol..I'm a year late but the way he said with that look lol
It’s true this nigga not only got to share the court to play against his idol but he outplayed him as well that day. It was gorgeous and true.
Shout out to A.I. for the Mahmoud reference story, that dude was official af too. Legend in his own right as well
Thekid GQ 1--Yeah ya. Mahmoud brought the fire. One of the baddest little guys to lace em up... And he was on it before Kaepernick.
