how good was Allen Iverson

Too good for his own "good".

The man had talent but couldn't capitalize on it... Scratch that! Wouldn't capitalize on it. He could'a pulled a Lebron and left to play for a team that would've surrounded him with greatness, but homeboi was too cocky. Ball hog. But he was a beast!

Also, if he could've marketed himself better, he'd be making mad money right now. He'd be like a Charles Barkley or Barry Sanders in the public and someone like ESPN wouldn't think twice about putting him on sports center to cover games or some shit.

Funny this topic came up because I had this debate with myself a few months back. Dude accomplished a lot as an athlete but could've accomplished so much more!
