AI Would Pick Kobe Over Himself In The 1996 NBA Draft ๐ | @WillieDLive #shorts
Allen Iverson talks to Willie D and Scarface about what many consider to be the greatest draft in NBA history, the 1996 NBA Draft. Allen Iverson singles out Kobe and as humble as always, says that he would rather have taken Kobe over himself if he were the Philadelphia 76ers. I haven’t seen a single athlete ride as hard for his homies as AI did/does for Kobe. Much respect.

The Lakers knew what they were getting when they drafted him. Imagine him getting drafted to Philadelphia.
Held kobe back. Should've just unleashed him on the league off rip.
Kobe had a terrible rookie season and if I was in the same position as those gm I wouldnโt of pick him either
Who remembers nfl streets will all these legends on it man good times
He drove himself to be like Mike
Faced said all facts Ej wasn't letting kobe get off bench they had to trade Jones give Kobe opportunity
Willie D, come on bruh. Kobe was 13 years old? ๐๐๐
Move said that he didn't want the Sixers to draft him. For that reason I didn't realize Kobe's greatness until l8r in his career. ๐
Kobe wasnโt good enough to start coming out of high school. Eddie Jones was cold as fuck. Amazing
Nigga said Kobe was 13 years old in the draft ๐
I had that picture on my wall when it came out. From SLAM
That was the greatest draft of all-time, then the 84-85 draft. When you got MJ and Hakeem the rest on the list dont even matter
Only 2 won rings Ray Allen and Kobe
Willie D is super slow.
Jerry ๐ฎwest knew
The coach was just a idiots that why he got fired
Please don't let these dudes talk basketball no more. 13 years old? C'mon man
Jerry west knew how good Kobe was. He traded vlade divac which was a good center for the 13th pick which was Kobe. But dumb Del Harris didnโt play him, thatโs why he got fire.
Damn. It's a shame how much alcohol has robbed AI and Steve Francis of their skills and their appearance. Both look like old ass drunken uncles of their former selves.

No jerry west stamped kobe before he even stepped foot on a NBA floot 1ST game of summer league mr jerry west said wemby is just a bigger bill russell from my knowledge that was the last persosn he evaluated before he pass so im holding wemby accountable
Kobe was 13 years old? ๐๐๐๐
In order of all time points, the 1996 draft had Kobe, Ray Allen, Allen Iverson Steve Nash Stephon Marbury Antoine Walker Peja Stokakovic, Illgauskas, Marcus Camby, Eric Dampier, Kerry Kittles Malik Rose, Lorenzsn Wright, Shareef Rahim and more
โOh shitโ had me rolling
Second greatest draft look at he 84 draft.
As a senior in high school he averaged 30-12-6 4 steals and 4 blocks
Led his team to 31-3 and a chip
He was player of the year for every major award and then to Brandy to the promโฆ
Everyone knew Kobe
96 definitely the deepest draft class ever
MVPs: AI, Kobe, Nash
All stars; Ray Allen, shareef Abdul rahim, Stephon Marbury, Big Z, Antoine walker, Peja, Jermaine OโNeil, and then you got Ben Wallace that goes undraftedโฆ
I said the same thing. People always say that weak shit about he wasn't a starter his first year. Wasn't better than them my ass bro. With all do respect to Jones and Vanexle
