A.I. lets the world know he’s fully supporting crook!
In recent months, Allen Iverson has been quietly building back his relationship with the Philadelphia 76ers organization. The city of Philly is arguably the hardest to please from any professional athlete’s perspective, which Iverson became beloved by city for tough play and giving his all every night on the court. After citing he wants to even work for the franchise in the future, including being present for the war room on draft night, The Answer would reveal he feels Russell Westbrook reminds him of himself on the court.
“I’m the biggest Westbrook fan I think there is. He reminds me so much of myself as far as his heart, laying it on the line night in and night out. Just bringing it every single night.”
While there’s obviously no comparison to Iverson’s talent from 99% of the current crop of players, Westbrook’s coming of age this year and plans for the future should be intriguing for traditional basketball fans like ourselves who have grown tired with the soft and friendly era of players. If Iverson co-signing it, you have to listen!
