Allen Iverson is arguably one of the most exciting players during his time with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Iverson even won an NBA MVP and brought Philly to NBA Finals and set up a championship match up with Kobe, Shaq and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Iverson could've a better NBA career if he only had the mentality Kobe had during his NBA career. But unfortunately for the 6'0 guard, he doesn't like practice.

Iverson was once asked about a future NBA coaching position. The former NBA MVP had a short response:


"No, I would never want to coach. We would never practice."


Iverson became controversial during his Sixers days as he was reportedly skipping team's practice.

AI even had a long rant about practice:

"We sitting in here -- I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we in here talking about practice. I mean, listen: We talking about practice. Not a game. Not a game. Not a game. We talking about practice. Not a game. Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last. Not the game. We talking about practice, man."
