There may be one million people who love me, there may be 10 million people who hate me. What do I do? I go to battle for those 1 million people.
Allen Iverson -
I thought we'd be discussing about me not leaving Philadelphia and they just kept asking me about the practice, so I lost it.

Come the fourth quarter, we buckled down and got the stop and made some good plays offensively. Earl, I don't want to call him a backup point guard because he's just as good as many guards in this league.
Allen Iverson -
If that many people recognize how hard I go every night and what I put into my game, to make myself and my team better, it means a lot to mean. I'm fortunate; I'm blessed to be in the situation that I'm in right now.
Allen Iverson -
We didn't get any stops. We are trying to get better defensively but we got beat by 30 points, so obviously we are not getting better defensively. ... Obviously if you get beat by 30 points then the coach can question your effort.
Allen Iverson -
Life is short. Im gonna be happy with mine.
Allen Iverson -
I love my fans in Philadelphia, but this is the hardest place in the world to play in. And I think it's the hardest place to play in to be a superstar. Just to be the No. 1 guy. All eyes on you - because everybody wants you to be perfect, but not themselves.
Allen Iverson -
We had a lot to do with Randy being fired. If we were to do a lot better, then it probably wouldn't have happened.

We talkin' bout practice?
Allen Iverson -
I've been in Philadelphia 10 years, man. I knew it was going to be a challenge, mentally. I always thought life would come to an end if I ever left Philadelphia. And I feel like a newborn. Being in Denver it's just a better situation for me. And I'm just happy that I feel like I got an opportunity where I can win basketball games here.
Allen Iverson -
There's no way to explain it. We just got beat up. We're not stop-ping nobody, man. ... And if we can't stop nobody on the defensive end then it's hard to get into any type of running game, easy baskets. Every time they're scoring on us, and we're coming down and playing against a half-court set.
Allen Iverson -
They want us to get down. I'm going to get down.
Allen Iverson -
God blessed us, ... It rained but we're still out here. This is what life is about. I'm glad I could get out here to put some smiles on these kids' faces.
Allen Iverson -
I'm not perfect. But I am trying every day to concentrate on being better.
Allen Iverson

He gave me an excuse, and I didn't buy it. I told him that's what we need him to do. Andre is not selfish at all, but he has to be selfish in that sense to try to get shots up, because we need him to.
Allen Iverson -
What I have always loved most in men is imperfection.
Allen Iverson -
I don't want to just go to the playoffs, I don't want to go to the playoffs and win the first round, second round, and not win the whole thing because it's bittersweet.
Allen Iverson -
I thought he played great. He played well in training camp. I'm excited about it. We played well with each other tonight.
Allen Iverson -
We stopped doing the things that got us the lead, both offensively and defensively. You can feel it. You're not getting easy shots anymore.
Allen Iverson -
That is just something that I don't deal with. You may not think about it as much, but it is something that you must think about because if guys have families here and maybe have to get up and just leave. It would be tough, so it's something to think about. It is part of the business and you just have to deal with it as a professional.
Allen Iverson
-
You don't want somebody shooting that had been making a lot of shots.
Allen Iverson -
Last night they kind of took me out of the game defensively and my teammates stepped up. Tonight was just a little different. I stepped up in the fourth quarter. We just need everyone to contribute.
Allen Iverson -
I just wasn't picked. I'm not bitter. I'm not mad. It just means I'll get to spend more time with my wife and kids over the next three summers. I still hope they bring back the gold. I'm just honored to have played before.
Allen Iverson -
We had our chance to get back in the game in the third quarter when Dirk went down but Jet (Terry) and Marquis picked up their games and we didn't.
