Allen Iverson
I just try to look into the mirror, and work on the things that I wasn't doing, and I made a promise to myself that after the season, I will look at the same mirror, and say that you did everything you could
Allen Iverson
Being an All-Star is everything.
Allen Iverson
If that many people recognize how hard I go every night and what I put into my game, to make myself and my team better, it means a lot to mean. I'm fortunate I'm blessed to be in the situation that I'm in right now.
Allen Iverson
We should because when coaches get fired, the players have a lot to do with it.
Allen Iverson
I had a lot of growing up to do. A lot of times, I learned the hard way.
Allen Iverson
I'm not perfect. But I am trying every day to concentrate on being better.
