Iverson, who was exhausted by Philadelphia's patience, finally chose to leave, joining the Nuggets and Melon Anthony to form a super scoring combination in the league, known as the golden double gun, the team only attacked and did not defend, that is, to completely crush the opponent's defense line with offense, the style of the ball was once sought after by the audience, and it was the norm to score 100 points in a single game, and even often reached more than 130 points.
3. The average per game is 110.7 points, and the single game is 168 points
Iverson and Anthony's combination, once made the Nuggets become the hottest team in the West, the so-called greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, under the leadership of the two super scorers, the regular season Nuggets killed all sides, the Nuggets became the strongest team in the league, the second season of cooperation between the two, He set a record for an average score of 110.7 per game, and on March 17, 2008, the two showed their scoring talent to the extreme, when the Supersonics also had the infant Death God Durant, and as a result, he was beaten by the Nuggets, with 48 points in the first quarter, 36 points in the second quarter, 43 points in the third quarter, and 41 points in the fourth quarter, and 168 points in the regular season! Playing Du Xiaoshuai can not find the north, but at that time advocating the era of defense, into the playoffs defensive intensity increased, Iverson and Anthony's non-defensive combination is difficult, the offensive efficiency declined, directly led to the team in the playoffs have no ability to fight back, the first season of the playoffs was flattened by the Spurs, the second season how in the first round was eliminated by the Lakers 4-0, at this point, the Nuggets are unwilling to give up Anthony's peak time period, in the 08, 09 season will be Iverson traded, sent to the Pistons, Since then, the answer has become a lonely hero.
4, a lifetime of memories, after all, the character harms the answer
After joining the Pistons, was told to play on the bench, the arrogant Iverson did not compromise, he published that classic quote, never heard the MVP play the bench; never heard a player play the bench; never heard the scoring king play the bench; never heard the Olympic player play the bench, why should I play the bench. As soon as this remark came out, Iverson and the Pistons broke up completely, and after that Iverson went to the Grizzlies and overseas leagues, but he always missed Philadelphia and the team that once belonged to him, and finally Iverson's tragic twilight was back to the 76ers, back to the place where the dream began, and the moment he kissed the floor of the 76ers' home stadium, I believe that those who knew him would feel something, even if he was no longer the answer to the omnipotence of that year.
5. Decommissioning

Iverson is great enough that if he puts aside his arrogant character, he will build a dynasty, but this is the answer, this man who always believes that he alone is enough to fight everything, and only then is Alan Iverson.
