Iverson isn't overrated. That's silly talk.
I used to be an Iverson stan as a kid, but when I got older, his flaws become more noticable to me though.
Iverson was a strong minded dude, a big strength of his but a flaw at times later in his career. Despite that, dude accomplished a bunch and when you factor his size in it makes it all the more incredible.
Game 1 in the 01 finals still rustles my jimmies though. The lakers could've went 15-0 in the playoffs that year

You don't think he was MVP material?
That he won it more so because he was small, ?

What exactly is Iverson's rating. Can't say he's overrated without setting the ground rules.

A 4x scoring champion and 1x MVP is not overated in my book. And he always carried the 76ers.

Shaq got robbed ....
carried them where.... Mo is that 01 team fit him perfectly. Put him on a Chicago bulls type team from the modern era and hell do something. put him on the spurs or a offense of that nature. No good.
he was pure ISO ball and he loved it. That was how he played. Dude had skills can't deny it and he wasn't a b *** dude. Never liked him as a player but I liked what he was about. He was himself and gave no Fs....

I think the ground rules or rating for Iverson being good are simple. His career speaks to that.
He's the smallest guy on the floor on any given night but scored in the paint or out of the paint.
How many scoring titles? MVP,
How many 1st teams.?
Edit: just saw
EddieDoyers
dropped the awards.
That's the rating right there

Idk why, but Embiid's Twitter personality makes me think he won't be that good. 
His Twitter personality reminds of Thabeet or some MWP type ****. You rarely see great NBA players that active on social media like that. I'm thinking its just something he's doing in the offseason, though.

Where or what do you rate AI in comparison to where he is rated in reality?
He's without question a top 10 shooting guard of all-time, though the position isn't very strong historically. Could make a case for him being top 5. Other than that, I don't see anyone saying he's Kobe or Jordan or even Wade..

From who I've been able to see play he's top 5. Plenty ppl at the time felt Ai was better then Kobe.

It doesn't sound like you think he's overrated then.
Do the people you hear talk about him being like a top 10 player of All Time or something?

In his prime he was rated on or better then kobes level. Especially cuz of the MVP.... I never felt he was close. Plus he shouldn't have won MVP. The MVP award is given to the wrong person....alot

He was better than Kobe though, for a couple few years.
Iverson came in doing work in 96, Kobe was what 98? I think Iverson had a scoring title before Kobe was a starter though

Reminds me of when he got hired by the Cavs right when Bron left for some reason. Pringles quit on them so they look for the guy who didn't really coach that offense and got carried to the finals by JKidd.
I hear ya.
Because Byron was coaching in the 01 finals
?

Iverson was in a different situation then Kobe. Kobe wasn't even starter cuz we had ej....yeah Iverson won Roy. Kobe was as second year as a reserve. Lakers had 4 as that year if I remember correctly . After 00 Kobe was the best sg in the L till he got hurt.

If you ask me Kobe wasn't the clear cut best Player in the NBA in 2000-2004.
It was (Orlando) McGrady>Kobe
Same time frame too, I think
