Throwback: Kobe Bryant 26 vs Allen Iverson 37 Duel Highlights (NBA Finals 2001 Game 5)

IF THE SIXERS COULD HAVE KEPT KUKOC IN THE MUTUMBO TRADE THEY WOULD HAVE TOOK THE LAKERS TO SEVEN AND POSSIBLY WON THE CHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rip.kobe

Fatality!!!

in a parallel universe the 76ers win the series and ai is the mvp

The sixers got robbed lol

15-1 damn

Kobe and shaq all day fuck the 76ers

IVERSON is the most underrated legend of all time

Dang Iverson is on the Mount Rushmore of NBA Goats. It’s LeBron, Jordan, and Iverson

Iverson the type of guy who can compete in finals 1v5

Kobe is definition of basketball

Without shaq lakers never won this title...

I see D-fish chasing down AI at the end of the game in the tunnel to congratulate him on a great series.

AI shoulda took more 3’s

If the 76ers were in the west they might of not even made the playoffs in 01

Imagine if Iverson had a player like Shaq on his team

Shaq looked slow af kobe was right

If iverson team up with shaq and that lakers. AI will be the GOAT.

IDGAF Ai3 still a champion in my book, little guy is tremendously hearted, plays bigger than himself, one of my greats of all time.

Luckly that Ai doesn't have a good partner.but he was able to carry his team tru fnals

Don't know if anyone knows this.. but Kobe died in a helicopter accident in January...

And people want to compare Harden and Kyrie Irving to him. Ok lol.

Dream match!. My God.

Poor AI if only he had at least 2 superstars 🥺😭😭

i miss u kobe😢

Uncrowned king 👑

This 6er team had no place in this finals. The raptors and bucks were both way better teams this year.

If Iverson had one more star it would have been a different game

Man I was in 7th grade and had the braids, the wristband, I had the Questions because my mom couldn't afford the A5s or A6s. I even tried to get hurt so i could play injured lol. Iverson was everything to me. I use to rap the commercials with him and Jadakiss. Knew every single word. Iverson is the greatest player and competitor I've ever seen in my lifetime.

I personally think that this finals Sixers team is the worst team to ever play in the finals… An old injury worn Mutombo, Eric Snow, Matt Geiger, George Lynch, Aaron Mckie, Tyrone Hill…. Many others not worth mentioning, the fact that they won a game speaks to how good Iverson was. He single handedly got them to that point dam near. Sheesh

Ai looks mad tired and still played well. Impressive

The real first super team..Shaq n Kobe

Saq+ jverson
Kobe + mutombo.......
Winner.........???? 👌
Jverson SOLO Contro TUTTI! I love Is game
From Italy 🇮🇹

A.i was like me against the world

Do uou have game 6?

Allen iverson just didn't have the right team with him to pull in a chip ...ok if he had Tracy Mgrady ..Tim Duncan ...Yow Ming ...then he would of had more weapons to pull from but when it's mostly you doing the majority of scoring its not good.

Everyone here is nostalgia-creaming themselves over Iverson... let's keep in mind he needed 32 shots to score those 37 points, and was 2-8 from 3. Pretty much a microcosm of his whole career... volume scorer, ineffective defender, shot hog. Not close to Kobe's caliber.

If Vince Carter made that 3pt shot agaisnt the Sixers! G7 (ECF) It wud be a good fight between Toronto and the Lakers!(NBA finals 2001)nonetheless AI is fighter! Even on loss....

No discussion kb ah great but Iverson had defense and can hit any shot 3sss or inside 💯🤣🤣🤣🤣🙊🙉🙈 that's why he just dog any playa mj Kobe who ever 😂😂😂

Take shaq away that’s a chip for iverson. Kobe wasn’t ready yet.

Iverson is a Legend

Mi corazón, y todo mi ser quería ver a los Sixers Campeones, con Allen Iverson a la cabeza.

No me gustan los Lakers.

What an amazing game. Kobe and AI were phenomenal as well as Shaq. When I watch this games I feel nostalgic and at the same time impressed to see so many stars sharing the floor. This classics brings good memories of my childhood.

iveson era el mejorrrrrrrrrr , que bestia de jugador
