Well my friend and I are having a stupid debate. He claims that Iverson is better than Jordan and has much more accomplishments. Of course I say he is wrong and etc. I gave prove and all but he would like to hear your opinions on it instead. He thinks only I believe Jordan is better than Iverson. BTW, intelligent responses please.
Your friend must have not watched Jordan. Jordan plays defense and won 6 championships. Where's Allen Iverson?
i really hope this is a joke. Iverson-league mvp once,all-star mvp twice(i dont think all star mvp is a GREAT accomplishment though) 7 time all nba (3 1st and 2nd and 1 3rd) led the league in scoring 4 times and led the league in steals 3 times. iverson had 84 games with 50 or more points, and 13 with 50 or more. Jordan-40 or more in 209 games. 50 or more in 39. 5 time regular season mvp. 6 time finals mvp. (i think this is more than enough to show jordan is better lol). has 4 nba final records, 3 time alstar mvp (not a great accomplishment). led scoring 10 seasons, 9 time all nba 1st defensive team. 10 time all nba 1st team. 1 defensive player of the year. theres a lot more i can list but i dont want to lol
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting NbaBaller:</div><div class="quote_post">He thinks only I believe Jordan is better than Iverson.</div> Give him a bull horn and make him repeat his quote so the whole town hears. Sit back and watch as everyone points and laughs at him. After the humiliation Then maybe he will do some research. Ivo cant F with the Goat. 72-10 Baby!!! LOL!!!!!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting authentiq:</div><div class="quote_post">Nbaballer, your friend never said that, your just looking for a thread to hit platinum. You liar. </div> No seriously he did. He doesn't believe me ,so I figured he would believe the posters on JBB.
when your bro thinks AI is better than MJ, don't say anything, just laugh at him. he'll get over it and start doing some research
This is so funny man. I like allen iverson a lot, but comparing him to jordan? That's crazy. Yeah iverson has accomplished a lot in his career, but look at what jordan did. From dpoy to mvp to six time.champ he is the greatest player ever. You just can't compare the two. Mj is too good, and much better than iverson. I think your friend needs to stop smoking.

He can't have actually watched Jordan play (in his prime) and concluded Iverson is better. Further, that he thinks you're in the minority in believing Jordan was better suggests he doesn't follow sports very much.

It's kinda funny though.
I truly hope you friend was joking, how can you even argue accomplishments? What accomplishment does Iverson have that Jordan doesn't, I really want to know because I can't figure it out.
