More quotes by Allen Iverson
How the hell can I make my teammates better by practicing?!
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.
Allen Iverson
We talkin' about practice?
Allen Iverson
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.
Allen Iverson
I thought we'd be discussing about me not leaving Philadelphia and they just kept asking me about the practice, so I lost it.

Everything comes back around. You never thought Louis Vuitton and Gucci and all that other stuff would come back. You know what I mean? And now it's one of the highest brands there is out. Everything just comes right back into circulation. Baggy jeans might come back out again. Might be a while, but they might.

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.
Allen Iverson

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
Believe me, I am not even that brave enough to miss that many practices.
Allen Iverson
People try to start things with me because of who I am, and I know that means I have to stay away. Its definitely racial.
Allen Iverson
I see kids today trying to do the things I did, and it makes me feel like I've come a long way.
Allen Iverson
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.
Allen Iverson
I love you Philadelphia. I want to thank you for accepting me, and letting me be me and make this my home forever.
Allen Iverson
Only the strong survive.
Allen Iverson
You know, I've always told him (Larry Brown) I wanted the relationship that Michael Jackson... Michael Jordan, I'm sorry. ... I wanted the same relationship with him like Phil Jackson and Michael Jordan had.
Allen Iverson
Please don't try to make things nice! All the wrong notes are right? I want it that way.
Allen Iverson
There's nothing less than that. I don't care about just going to the playoffs I've been to the playoffs before.
