Old school late 90s/00s all day every day I don’t like this skinny jean, pink clothing era birthed by these new age mumble rappers. Tall white tees, baggy shorts, high top sneakers will be my style whether it’s 2001 or 2051.
If it weren't for A.I. these players today wouldn't be able to dress the way that they do, A.I. was like Jesus in a sense 😆 they crucified him for expressing himself!!
@CAJ Action The point that he is making while humorous is quite true. People often try to emulate other people but why bother, when you can simply be yourself. You should be able to do it better than anyone else.
Jordan is the G.O.A.T, but Allen Iverson will and forever will always be my favorite player of all time. He changed the game back when he played. Crazy how he'll probably never get the recognition he deserves because people want to call him a thug.
Allen Iverson was not only a basketball icon he was even a fashion icon. He help the hip-hop fashion characterized the basketball fashion for a decade.
Every time AI tells some story is pure gold . He's a natural storyteller . He could write 1000 books about his years in the NBA . I mean , 1000 only with the stories suitable to get published .
He was my favorite player growing up after Jordan retired. I wore everything he wore had his shoes, the arm sleeve, the finger sweatband, cornrows. I'm 37 now but I tell you this, I was the only kid in my city, at that time around the late 90's to have that arm sleeve. People always wonder where I got it from and even ask me the wear it lol I found it in a medical injury doctor book by accident. So I had the most swag in town. This brings back old memories.
@@King-ww1kz it was bad for the bottom line. Basketballs main customers, the ones that buy season tickets every year didn't like the style. It's easy to get emotional over things that seem to affect us. But sometimes things happen for a bigger reason than racism.
AI did his thing clothes wise,however David Stern and Phil Jackson were hating,i dug the R Kelly line and they respect one another, respect Allen Iverson being himself
They really incorporated the dress code after AI started rocking opposing team's jerseys (which was popular at the time). The NBA was thought it was confusing. Fun Fact: in Philly it was alright with us but we wasn't feeling that time he rocked a Boston jersey during a post game interview. That one didn't fly
You shouldn't roast your dad George reason your here see thsts the problem with your generation always wearing skinny jeans and sagging yall soft I'm from the old school I still dress like 2005
I wonder if Iverson could have gotten a pattern on that sleeve back in the day so that it could have been his own invention? And he be the only one to sell it, if so he'd be a billionaire..
I'm from the same area as him Hampton slash Newport news VA what I loved about his look was it wasn't unique to him all the young brothers looked like that braided up with tats and fresh clothes that's why I say he was iconic because he had the whole league looking like us
AI ain't lying. I wanted to wear a shooting sleeve and I played football. My coach told me to take it off after I fumbled one game so I stopped wearing them...
@@88949597 oh man. Even funnier? I think I will now that you said that haha. I started watching when we first David lee the rebounding machine 😂 I don’t live in New York anymore but I must say this is the first time I’ve been excited about our team since the melo/amare squad.

He definitely revolutionized the cornrows. He's the reason people were telling me to wear cornrows and to grow my hair. On the other hand, I revolutionized the twists, despite not being famous. I was wearing them and later on I be seeing 👀 few other people wear em.
A.I. Is my dude. He held it down for the 757. Because of him, Hampton Roads influenced fashion world wide. He is a legend back home in the 757! 2 things we all had back then… a flight coat and an A.I Jersey!
Aye,,, that guy took my offensive game 10 notches. 💯💯💯👑✊🏾 So for the young buls,, I went from a on ball Lockdown to a 2-Way Slashing Shot Creator.. 🤣😂🤣
Some people wanted Iverson to conform to their standards as far as dress code, but if you put a suit on him he is still the same person at the end of the day. I think the more the NBA went after Iverson for his image the more people supported him.
That's why i always dismiss Ai dosrespect. The man literally changed the game in multiple ways. Only a hand full of players carry that distinction ...LIterally.
Some from my generation like to criticize these youngins about their tight jeans, but we looked just as ridiculous in those 3 sizes too big clothes in our day
He wasn’t stereotyped for his shooting sleeve. He had problems way before he started wearing it. That became fashionable thanks to Iverson fans that copied his game and look. I remember when even girls copied his game. That was the most beautiful sight to behold. Imagine if he had been Skylar Diggins idol? 😮🔥
HE stated he was dressing like the people in the neighborhood.. But on a bigger platform like NBA and being an Icon people gravitate to you and they mimic your style so ,he changed the culture world wide
I’m the same age as the majority of these new age rappers and I still dress like someone from circa 2002. 2xl white tee, fairly baggy jeans/shorts, high top sneakers and buzz cut Simple and rugged.
A.I. changed the game. Nowadays players look lame and overwhelming flashy, he looked badass and ghetto in such a tremendous good way. That era had the bast handles, best dunks, best finals, and the best looks. That mojo is simply unmatchable.
Do you like how AI dressed more or new-school NBA players?
Old school late 90s/00s all day every day
I don’t like this skinny jean, pink clothing era birthed by these new age mumble rappers.

Iverson represents us that's y the culture love him
Righttt 👏🏾👏🏾
The NBA owes Iverson and apology and a lifetime honor and award for his originality and changing of the culture.
You could tell Iverson's peers genuinely like him .....bless up Allen.....you too AL 🙌🏾
A.I. was a fashion icon and he changed the game wearing braids
AI wasn’t the greatest player but he made basketball 🏀 more cool than anyone.😁😁😁😁😁
@@nikkyblammon6814 pound for pound the best player
100%
I believe Latrell was actually first though
💯the best era ever I miss the 90’s & early 2000’s
There will never be another player or person like AI. Real icon in and out of the court.
✊🏼
It is but not as famous as iverson plenty of guys like him but never mad it to be popular as iverson
Bubbachuck is effortlessly hilarious. I'm over here cracking up at this man. Lol!
Me too !
He got me crying with that R Kelly comment
A. I. was a such a trend setter he started trends without even trying 😂
@Brandon Marshall Who said they were? I don't see what you're getting at.
Tht r Kelly comment to me out😭😭😭

Still my fav tooo
A I was a great player but if he was 6' 6" without a championship people would hardly ever talk about him.

that AI and jada commercial was lit !
Fasho It Was

The NBA likes battymon so they wouldn’t mind that
Aye AL grill has always on point.. this man smiles when he’s angry
AI should’ve capitalized on that back in the day, and put out his own sleeve
I said the same. He could have done that with so many things that he created.
That R Kelly part took me out bruh.
AI did his thing clothes wise,however David Stern and Phil Jackson were hating,i dug the R Kelly line and they respect one another, respect Allen Iverson being himself

Now these players dress sus.
On point

And that for sure is embraced. 🤔
They dress in lil sister clothing

I got corn rows because of AI...I rocked them for 6 years...proudly

Al Harrington really enjoys when AI talks..😃
i do too

This era is pure blasphemy. Men should always wear clothes that fit them and have function.
