Although our cover for SLAM 96 ended up being this photo of Allen Iverson without the blacktop in the background, it’s no doubt that the streets of Philly always had The Answer’s back. Dude gave it his all for the Sixers night after night for a decade.  This past year may have made some forget, but when you see AI drop 30 more than a few times in a new city next season, don’t say we didn’t warn you.—Adam Fleischer

    AI is the man…to me better on raw talent than all the stars of the Post Jordan Era…while all of them were trying to straight up copy or jack MJ’s spirit; this guy didn’t sign up with NIke and get the ‘package star’ deal, he went rogue and did it his way….God Bless A.I. whether he had game or not….

    We should NEVER EVER QUESTION THE ANSWER!!!
