Anybody see this one? I've always been a big Allan Iverson fan. I saw the rerun on Sunday and must say this film is great. He really got the shaft when he was arrested and charged with multiple felonies in highschool. I always admired how he stayed the same person even though the NBA and society pressured him to conform to a different image. There's a point in the film where Steven A. Smith was interviewing him and Iverson said "Everything I got, I deserved." He didn't make any excuses or blame anybody but himself. He made some mistakes but the guy is solid in my opinion.

If I recall correctly, a bunch of white people were bowling and then Iverson and his buddies came in all rowdy and one of the white people asked them to keep it down. Before you knew it, there was a huge fight and Allen threw a chair that hit some woman in the head. Hard to feel sorry for him, in my opinion.

he was made an example of because he was a high profile [black] athlete.
