Fuck a sentence I've been kinda waiting for the thread dedicated to that issue... I guess I'll be the one to say it out loud...






Derrick Rose today is already as good/valuable as Allen Iverson ever was.

And when you take into consideration how much more competitive the East is now than when I verson was in his prime it becomes that much more evident.

Niggas in here sounding salty... D. Rose is what AI was suppose to be however AI was still the fuckin man. Kemba will have an excellent career... He proved he can take it to the next level

??? Rose ain't accomplish 1% of what A.I. Did
What the hell are you talking about??
Are you aware of A.I.'s Stats??
He should have won three MVP's Easy
He also played Defense Led the NBA in steals
a few times and always finished in the top 3
But never made 1st Defensive team??!!

Kemba is a rare breed, if you really watch basketball you'll notice Kemba has a very high basketball IQ, is a great on ball defender, and he also has the ability to make other players better. He's a good rebounder for his size. He can get any shot he wants, and he gets buckets in the clutch.

I agree with everything you wrote. I think this cat is going to surprise a lot of people in the league. He has the heart and has a motor like A.I. I'm not saying he's going to give you 30 a night like A.I but he will be an all star caliber guard when its said and done. Him and Lamb really carried that team all the way to the championship. Also, let's not forget dude played almost every minute in those 5 straight games to win the big East tournament and balled his ass off. Everybody in the NBA has talent but only a few has the heart and a non stop motor. Kemba definitely has the latter.

I don't share his sentiments but in translation he said
(Get The Fuck Outta Here With That Bull-Shit You Dumb Ass N-gg-!)

I think that's what he meant to say in so many letters.

When was AI ever more valuable to a team than Rose is now?


What AI team was ever better/ played at a higher level than the team that Rose is currently leading?

Don't be silly Adrian Peterson. :hmm:

I think the way Iverson got black balled from the league at the end of his NBA career cause folks to forget what he contributed to the game.

First, PG and SG are two very different positions so a Marbury/D.Rose comparison is more viable. But to say D.Rose is more valuable than AI "ever was" is preposterous.

After Jordan retired AI was the best SG in the league and has the 1st Team All-NBAs to prove it.

Although he will win MVP, D.Rose may not even make first team all NBA this year. Kobe and D.Wade both equally deserve it.

In 2000-2001, the year AI won MVP and took the 76ers to the finals, the leaders in minutes played that year for the 76ers after Iverson were George Lynch, Aaron Mckie, Tyrone Hill, Theo Ratliff, and Eric Snow. Who?

Can D.Rose surpass AI in terms of value? Yes. It can happen if D.Rose sustains this level of output over the next few years. But give the homie Iverson some respect.

You sound like a certified fool. Even putting Rose's first two and 4/5ths of a season (he hasnt even played 3 full years yet) against a hall of famers entire career is beyond moronic. Doing so only shows how completely removed away from reality you are. As for you question about playing better or at a higher level, we can pretty much go and grab any year AI was in philly. When viewed in context and factoring in the pieces that AI was surrounded with its laughable to mention the two. And if you really want to get fly go grab AI's 2000/01 philly team and match it up against Rose current roster. Rose team is loaded with young talent while AI drug a roster filled with steaming hot shit to a NBA finals appearance. No comparison.

The entire argument is ludicrous.

Think a step behind the PG on Milwaukee....

They came out of high school together and went at each other all through their high school careers....

In time, Walker can be like him...same player.

I think thats the more accurate comparison and projection here. But i think Jennings is longer and a more skilled/capable point player than Kemba.

Trippin off what? I ain't saying D. Rose is better than AI all I'm saying it AI needed D.Rose defense and passing ability... they both are phenomenal players , AI is more special cause he was catching wreck at a shorter height.

So quickly people forget about how A.I impacted the game :smh:. No disrespect to D. Rose but dude needs show another 10 years of how he's playing now to be mentioned as better than A.I.

A.I might be the greatest anomaly to ever play the game. Dude was barely 6 feet, weighed 160 lbs and was arguably one of most dominant at his position for over a decade. I just looked at his career stats and you can't name more than 3 or 4 other guards that put up numbers like A.I in their prime as he did. I think we'll see another Kobe or Lebron before we'll see a player the same size as A.I that put up the crazy numbers like he did.

A.I could never have drose's defensive ability do to his size and weight, man

the kid was barely 160....hell i doubt if he if he was 155

the lil niggah stayed getting posted not because he lacked defensive skill, he was just too damn small

hell coach thompson isnt boeheim

You can play that same game with the other top 3 teams in the eastern conference that year. All four of them (with the exception of P. Pierce and A. Walker)featured a star and a bunch of nobodys. In other words, he took a group of nobodys past a bunch of other teams who were nobodys, then quickly lost in 5 against a quality team.

It's no exaggeration to say the Eastern Conference was a joke back then.

The reason AI's teams all sucked, is because what good player would ever want to play with a black hole like Iverson? They couldn't get him any help for that very reason.

I take nothing away from AI as an individual scorer, and to do what he did at 5'11 165 will never be duplicated, but it doesn't change the facts.

Basically... AI could ball, but too much gets made about his scoring avges and passing lane steals, and not enough about working hard in the offseason so you didnt have to work so hard during it. Not jacking up 30 plus shots a game just because you could. The fact that having a crossover will NEVER be a bigger weapon than a consistent J type shit. AI was never a great player IMO, he was a good scorer, but an inefficient one. AI will go down as one of the most overrated superstars in NBA history. Hood ninjas and females made him the icon he is today, not skill, not Bball IQ, not work ethic. Iverson wasted his talent but not honing it and working on it... Theres a reason no one wanted his ass even though technically he could still ball and belonged in the league. D Rose is a better, more complete player right now than Iverson ever was.

I actually agree with this. And im not a big AI fan, but none of that negates what he did and how impressive his accomplishments were or just how valuable he was to that franchise and his teams throughout his career in philly. He did far more with far less than Rose ever will. Also, i think the sixers could have done a better job of surrounding him with young shooters and defensive specialists. A 40year old deke was not the business.
