IMO Allen Iverson was one of the top 5 best guards to ever play the game if you base it off of sheer talent. He's only SIX FOOT TALL! If he were 6'8" like Kobe just imagine how much better he would have been with how talented he was. Almost every shot he took was contested by someone a half a foot taller than him. And watching him drive was great, because he hit the basket not by trying to go over everyone, but by finding an open space from underneath. You can disagree but in a league where height is so important I wholeheartedly think this is true.
That being said, it doesn't deserve a spot this year. Sorry AI, but you don't. Let the new kids start playing.
And you're right about the fan voting. If Jordan decided to play ONE game this year as some washed up has-been he'd get voted in.
