I.E. dribble penetration, breaking down defense, vision for passing lane steals, better handle, keeping/adapting his shot to/because of certain defenders..etc.Originally Posted by Im Not You
when you say skilled...exactly what do you mean?Originally Posted by thesimplestlife
ahahah. just trying to start some stuff? nah man, it's not even like that. I truly believe iverson was/is more skilled/talented than bryant. That's not to say that kobe isn't skilled/talented. Sure he is, I just think Iverson was a little more. I will be the first person to say that kobe is the best player in the league, right now. However, there was a time when Iverson was that player. That's all I'm sayingOriginally Posted by Bigmike23
I wouldn't even say ai natural talent is better then kobe
Listeve don't even believe what he just said just trying to start some stuff
I mean there are things in Kobe's repertoire that Iverson never had. Like a post game for instance.What skill did Iverson have that Kobe didn't? Iverson's career was based around dribble penetration and that's primarily it.
The absolute irony of the thread title being is AI's career "underrated" is so fitting right about now.
