Growing up, my favorite player had to be Allen Iverson. He was a little guy who changed the way we play the game of basketball. Pound for pound, the best guy to ever touch a basketball.

I remember the 2001 NBA Finals, Game 1, him stepping over Tyronn Lue.

That was the definition of Allen Iverson.

He did it his way.
