1, it should be admitted that Iverson has played this role for a long time. The difference is that he vividly cloned the movie script into the NBA. In terms of cunning, Allen's favorite movie is the first episode, not Spielberg's artificial intelligence. The so-called stunt to create fear-coincidentally, this is also the abbreviation of his name. You know, this blockbuster 1995 has created a lonely hero that all Americans like. "Who is cooler than John and McClane?" Iverson said that the hero who died in the dust is always unique and cannot be copied. Jordan is a kind of, like Allen, just like you are used to Chinese food, and occasionally you think pizza is actually delicious and clever. 99% people on earth think Allen is cool.
Because he is against countless people all over the world, imprisoned, taking drugs, and against the coach-the enemy of the whole people, this decoration is fashionable.
Then he became the embodiment of ordinary people's unyielding dreams. When he fought all the way to the finals at 200 1 seriously injured 2 1, the outcome was eclipsed in front of his great god for the first time.
You may not like him, or even overlook him from a height. Maybe it's Yugong's efforts to move mountains, but you can't help but respect him. Just as O 'Neill can scoff at Kings point guards Mike and Babe being selected for the new American "American Dream Team", he has always been full of praise for Iverson, winning the sincere admiration of his opponents, and this relationship has become a gorgeous public enemy. This state is wonderful,
As we all know, the loudest nickname of Allen and Iverson is "Answer". There are probably two versions about the origin of this expression-one is that he played streetball when he was a child, and his friends thought that he had no problem on the court and could not reconcile! The second seems more credible. A man named Jamir and Blackmon claimed that when Allen was still studying at George University, he gave Iverson the nickname "Answer", which meant that he would solve all the problems in the future NBA.
The idea itself is very high. Unfortunately, it seems a little commercial now. When a person becomes famous, there are always some people who try to get a slice of it for unwarranted reasons. Later, the mysterious guy sued Allen for cashing in 25% of the nickname trademark right, and the result was of course nothing, just like Iverson's 24 charges of beating his wife and breaking into houses last summer-everyone was famous anyway.
In fact, the whole incident is not complicated. Iverson seems to have made many gossip reporters lose their sense of smell this year. He has no news and is no longer reviled. In a sense, this is not necessarily a good thing. Even on April 16 this year, it was finally reported that he and a group of friends were partying all night in a gorgeous nightclub in the old city of Fucheng, and his friends Larry and Robinson shot him, but the police soon confirmed that it had nothing to do with Allen.
So it even seems that a suspicious and familiar young man Iverson appears out of thin air. So, did the answer change the world, or did the world change the answer? No one knows the truth, because even if a person writes a top secret diary, he will lie insincerely. Where's Iverson? A fascinating mystery,
3. Everything seems-time can change everything, and Allen is gradually moving away from the human purgatory of "public enemy of the whole people".
"I want Jordan to play in the first round." Before the All-Star Game in 2003, Iverson claimed more than once, but in the end, Vince and Carter, who were "ignorant", suffered a lot, followed by his touching hug with Jordan before and after the game, but just seven years ago, he said that he would not respect anyone, including Michael, and was criticized by Buck.
"Larry loves me like a father," Iverson said. "If Allen doesn't join Dream Six, I won't be the coach of Dream Six," said Brown, coach of 76ers. Their voices are surprisingly consistent. It seems that telling this to the judge has long been tired of the intrigue in the past, but good people clearly remember their past quarrels. "If you think I can't, then I can leave." I'm fed up with this ghost life of Allen's solo "-who changed who? In the first game of the first round of the playoffs, he scored 55 points against the Hornets and Iverson, becoming the sixth person in NBA playoff history to score more than 55 points in a single game-the top five were Jordan, rick barry, Buckley, Chamberlain and elgin baylor. "Winning doesn't need 55 points. I don't want to put all the pressure on myself. I believe my teammates know what they can contribute. This is what he said before.
People are saying that Iverson has matured and used the intriguing word "terrible". Remember Iverson's history of crowding out stackhouse because of scoring and team leadership? Everything seems like a lifetime ago,
Another evidence is that Allen has been the "scoring king" for four consecutive years, and once disappeared from the scoring list this season (averaging 27.6 points, ranking third in the NBA), but the number of assists and steals (averaging 2.7 times, NBA 1) has been increasing, leading the Hornets by 2: 1, and the 76 ers led by Iverson have the prospect of winning the championship.
Iverson-a good boy with a low eyebrow and a smooth aim, he is no longer in trouble, and the world is coming towards us ... maybe everything should be like this.
NBA President david stern even went to Philadelphia to watch Allen play in the second playoff game. For me, what worries Allen most is not that he can score 50 points, but that he makes great efforts every night, which is unbelievable.
I hope Allen's simple 29 points won't spoil his appetite. It seems that Iverson is not too stupid sometimes.
As a result, people began to miss the scene of 1997 rookie season when Allen kept dribbling with lightning legs and changing direction to dribble Jordan. They even cursed that Allen would one day get rid of the "plow" which represents the black symbol of the lower class in the United States. He looked strange in a suit and tie.
But is this really the case? Not necessarily, as Iverson himself said, "I am who I am. I don't want to be a hypocrite. I just want to be a real Iverson!" " ""I hate repeating my point of view. Victory has changed everything. I am still me, but your attitude towards me has changed. "
The real and illusory Iverson overlap into a vague figure, which is thought-provoking, like an unpredictable Pandora's box. Sometimes I think that the answers that can't be quoted are more in line with the appetite of human self-deception.
However, no matter how it changes, the rules of NBA determine that Iverson is still the public enemy of the whole people. As long as he does not leave this basketball world, he will deprive others of the right to live forever, and his heart will never bow.
That's all,
You don't have to try to understand him, because Iverson is always full of irreconcilable paradoxes. He despises power and does whatever he wants, but sometimes he has to make limited compromises-swaggering to hide illegal guns in the car, making CD records with insulting words about women and homosexuality, laughing at the league's stipulation that players must wear suits and ties when they are away from home, and treating media attention as garbage when they marry their bride Turner. ...
In the United States, Iverson's existence has actually caused a serious impact on traditional conservative culture. Before the 200 1 all-star game, Iverson once said, "I estimate that about one million people can vote for me, but one million people don't like me." As a result, he really got more than one million votes! The absolute opposition between the pros and cons is thought-provoking, isn't it? In fact, many old guys hate him and like to publicize his mistakes, but they can't stop their children from doing what Allen says, which in turn hurts them. As far as the impact on the outlook on life of millions of young people in the United States is concerned, Iverson has indeed reached the realm of a superstar, and he is riddled with lawsuits. As a result, the sales of the Reebok sports shoes company he signed up for soared, and crowds of fans took to the streets wearing T-shirts that "released Iverson". There was even a funny scene where a serious judge asked him for his autograph before the trial. The league needed Iverson's star effect to save the market-Allen was harassed by fans all night every time he played away, but his unique style always made them angry and helpless.
In short, whether it's bonzi or candied dates, Iverson has always been free from it, sitting and watching the clouds roll and relax.
Finally, the tone of American magazines seems to represent some signs of compromise on Iverson's current image. On September 1 9, 20065438+9, they awarded Allen the year-end award of "Best Athlete in America" on the grounds that "this man has made outstanding achievements and brought such great changes to our society" ... At the same time, Iverson's high school alma mater hung up his jersey and retired at the right time. ...
Can a former public enemy of the whole people rise to such a high level? God knows, in fact, people prefer a changed Iverson and a well-programmed Allen, so Iverson's dazzling cynical and unruly eyes keep appearing on the covers of major sports print media in the United States.
But Iverson has always maintained a pure bottom line, and this last fortress is unbreakable.
It must be admitted that Iverson is an American who was "once" extremely painful. Although this john mclean-style lonely hero always looks very determined, if there is any change in Allen today, it is that he has turned the pain of the past into an unyielding motivation, which makes his determined eyes particularly charming.
A man with a story, a man who rarely growls with passion, and a man who keeps advancing according to his own right path, is unfathomable in his heart.
Who's Iverson? Where did he come from? Allen, who kisses two sleeping children affectionately in the camera, is silent, which is a history that dare not open the scar easily. ....
So far, Allen has admitted that the only time he lied was about his birth, "Hey, you bastard!" "However, Allen Jr. decided that his stepfather, Michelle Freeman, who was only recognized at the age of three, was his biological father, and then got a slap from his mother when he went home and asked to change his surname to Freeman. Although the irresponsible bastard Alan Brown abandoned them early, his father was his father, and those entanglements about identity and blood were doomed to be impossible for people to choose, so Iverson never thought his father was a hero or even nothing, but he had to bear the cross.
Yes, this spiritual shadow has been accompanied by Iverson's growth. He will never forget how he and his mother can only make ends meet. In those years when the Jewish community was bullied, survival and struggle became Iverson's first term, so basketball became his escape from reality.
In the United States, if you are born in poverty, if you can't be a good lawyer like Abraham and then become president, or if you don't want to go to jail, then play basketball, which will give you an equal dignity with others, or have a feeling of being one against three. Iverson did it, and he did it very well. For a long time, he was even extremely addicted to the ball "rinse" when he entered the net. God knows,
6. Some people say that suffering is inestimable wealth, which is actually a very emotional statement. If there is a choice, who would like to start a life struggle from below the horizon? According to Iverson, it is: "Go to hell!"
If anyone has personally experienced Iverson's difficult growth, it will come to the conclusion that in the face of difficulties, it is either survival or death.
1, was born in a slum, his mother worked odd jobs to support his family, and his stepfather was an ordinary factory worker. He was imprisoned for taking drugs, and no one told Allen what was right and wrong.
2. Because I couldn't afford to pay the rent and went to the shelter, the fight in an instant was mistaken for the culprit.
When he was in college, nobody wanted him because of his poor grades. In the end, Thompson, a handsome man from George University, took him in.
4, height is not dominant, so you have to work several times more than ordinary people.
.........
But that's the truth. Iverson finally came to the NBA, unlike many American basketball geniuses who entered the league early. Iverson's heart was full of contradictions at that time. This kind of ideological struggle does not come from the skill of the ball, but from the heart. Iverson is 10,000 fans who don't want to leave the university campus because he doesn't want to be far away from the careful cultivation and enthusiastic support of his teachers. But he doesn't want his mother to live that suffocating life-a single mother needs at least two jobs to make a living, and then packs meager food in plastic bags to prevent cockroaches from attacking ... After many years, this has become another unspeakable pain in Allen's heart.
Fortunately, in the "rookie" season, Iverson performed well, scoring over 40. 1787 points in five consecutive games, setting a rookie scoring record, and becoming the "best rookie" with an average of 23.5 points and 7.5 assists. He suddenly became a myth, but greater pain followed.
From the first day he joined the League, many people have been looking at him with displeasure, surrounded by a bunch of friends, as if he were an upstart from the American underworld, with dazzling hair style and disrespectful words. The next year, he was reprimanded for being found taking drugs in the car with his friends, and even turned over his old scores of imprisonment in college and smoking marijuana before.
Allen, who was inexperienced, was deeply confused for a time. For a time, he even asked his teammate Aaron McKee how to get rid of the pain. On another occasion, Iverson, a discerning eye, went straight to his mother Ann and cried, "Don't the whole world understand us?" Then the mother and son hugged each other and cried, which made people sad.
"I don't understand why I have to be accused so much. I am alone, too. Like everyone else, I sometimes make mistakes, "Iverson told American TNT reporters so sadly in 1999.
Iverson even hopes that if he can choose the time of his death, his mother can go to heaven one day earlier, and he can let her engrave the following sentence on his son's tombstone: allen iverson, a man misunderstood by the whole world, indeed, Iverson has been misunderstood by the world too much.
7. "Life changes at that moment" seems to be the lyrics of a song, which is perfect for Iverson.
200 1 is an unusual year for Allen. Besides wrestling with the Lakers in the finals, his best friend langford was shot dead after quarreling with others in a bar, which also gave Allen a fatal blow. After several introspection, he began to understand one thing-since he chose basketball, he had to experience it, otherwise there was really nothing.
"I know that langford never left me, and he encouraged me to continue to play well," Iverson said affectionately.
If Iverson is still living in pain and seeking some relief before the age of 26, then his marriage with Turner is undoubtedly a new milestone.
"I have become a real father and husband, and this feeling is really great, giving me a sense of belonging that I have never had before."
How can a man with a family and mature psychology fail in his career?
So today we see a completely different Iverson. He is never late for training and works hard on the court. He really looks like a team leader. On March 22 and April 22 this year, he scored 12 assists in the game against the eagle and the bull, which once again shattered the negative comment that he likes to "eat alone". At the same time, he pays more attention to defense and teamwork. Considering what defense can bring us, once my teammates have a better chance, I will not hesitate to pass the ball to him. I am trying to play in the right way. Allen is promoting the progress of this team in the most positive way. Iverson took the initiative to take responsibility after the 76ers lost to the Rockets 79-88 at home on April 6, and he only scored 8 points on 4 of 23 shots in that game.
"The sea" was used twice by Allen in this year's playoffs, but the meaning is completely different. The first time, when he scored 55 points, "I found the rhythm and felt that the basket was like a Wang Yang, so I threw a few stones into it." Then, after losing to the Hornets in the third game, "my shooting is like sinking into the sea."
A desire to win supported Allen to beat the team's morale with the most perfect language.
What really makes Iverson adjust himself is not reality, but himself-this inner energy is the most terrible, which does not conflict with his position of refusing to kitsch the so-called power.
The sad days have long passed, and the whole world finally knows a brand-new Allen-never give up and always fight against fate. Everything seems to be developing in a good direction, but Iverson will never forget where he came from. In fact, he often goes to the hospital to visit dying children, and he often goes back to his hometown Hampton with his friends to set up a foundation to raise funds to save the local "boys and girls club" that is on the verge of bankruptcy.
"I hope the children can learn from me and let them know that no matter what setbacks and grievances they suffer, they will succeed one day, no matter where you come from or what kind of life you used to lead," Iverson said emotionally. Everyone knows that his experience is the result of countless lessons.
8. The playoffs are a war, and everyone's reason is to fight. If you don't advance, you will retreat. This trait can never be changed in a lifetime.
Humans are born to look for something, or just for a certain need, like Jordan, to look for a certain pleasure of victory, while Iverson is just looking for a seemingly impossible challenge, which is totally exciting and reckless, so Iverson's heroic feat in the playoffs is more approachable. He is not a god, but he is flesh and blood.
"Meeting Allen is the most unimaginable thing in my life, and his indomitable spirit is an example for us to learn," said Hornets defender Barron Davis, who scored 28 points and 8 assists in the third game of the first round of the playoffs. Indeed, when you see the little man who is only 1.83 meters tall, he enters and exits in a long crowd and then shines with a bloody heroic atmosphere, you will feel a sense of sadness involuntarily. In fact, Iverson is often covered with protective gear this season, just like a semi-mummy: long elbow pads and knee pads cover almost one leg. "Children will feel fashionable when they look at it, but I just use them as protective gear. I will say to others, "Hey, man, you don't know why I brought these. I need them so much," Iverson said.
Yes, Iverson has always had aggressive blood in him. Iverson grew up in a single-parent family in a black slum in Virginia. Iverson knew early on that he could not be bullied by outsiders. When he beat Allen Jr. with one enemy against five, he went home and picked up a fishing rod and hit him, but his mother Ann never dissuaded him because she knew that cowards could not survive in the harsh reality. "I am the most injured person in the league, but I am not afraid. Those who can fight are always afraid of getting hurt. "
This is Iverson. You can beat him physically, but you can never beat him mentally.
9. Allen Iverson, an American-style adult hero fable, is wonderful. This wonderful story continues, and only the "answer" can change the world.
