I want to return to the NBA this season, and help any team that wants me, in any capacity that they feel that I can help. I'm disappointed.
Allen Iverson
Image
I just wanted to set a good example. I wanted to do things that I hadn't done before. My whole thing was to just try to be professional. I think when you work hard, good things happen, so obviously, because we're going to the Finals.

I'm not perfect. But I am trying every day to concentrate on being better.

This is like a tribute to them, the people who helped me to get here. The thing that makes me feel good about the whole thing is, the fans voted me here.

When you get to that level, it's not a matter of talent anymore - because all the players are so talented - it's about preparation, about playing smart and making good decisions. If I don't believe it, then they don't need me on the court. I've just got to believe that in my heart.

When I was a little kid I used to go on the playground and say: today I will shoot like Bird, pass like Magic, jump like Mike, be quick like Zeke. I am thankful to them, since without seeing them do things they did, I wouldn't be in the NBA.

I don't want to be another Jordan, Magic, or Isiah. When my career is over, I want to be able to look in the mirror and say 'I did it my way'.

I thought we'd be discussing about me not leaving Philadelphia and they just kept asking me about the practice, so I lost it.
Allen Iverson
Image
I play every game like it's my last game. All that matters is that you go out there and play every game as if it was your last.

I've been in Philadelphia 10 years, man. I knew it was going to be a challenge, mentally. I always thought life would come to an end if I ever left Philadelphia. And I feel like a newborn. Being in Denver it's just a better situation for me. And I'm just happy that I feel like I got an opportunity where I can win basketball games here.

I dont want to be a point guard, or a two-guard, I want people to think of me as creative, I just want to create on the court.

We had a lot to do with Randy being fired. If we were to do a lot better, then it probably wouldn't have happened.

When you are not practicing, someone else is getting better.

This is the thing you dream about when you're a kid, even before getting into the league.
Allen Iverson

My whole thing is, if you love me, then love me. If you don't, then believe what you hear and run with that.

I didn't know I had this many fans in Puerto Rico. I'm going to carry this memory to my grave.

My whole thing was, just being me. Now, you look around the NBA and all of them have tattoos, guys wearing cornrows. Now you see the police officers with the cornrows. I took a beating for those types of things.
