5) Allen Iverson

"“We’re talking about practice… We ain’t talking bout’ the game! We’re talking about practice, man!” – Allen Iverson"

How could you make a list of favorite personalities and not include Mr. Iverson? Allen Iverson was an absolute joy to watch on and off the court. From his consistent banter towards other players when they screwed up to chewing out referees when they didn’t give him a call. Iverson played with his heart on his sleeve each and every night.

Does anyone remember that time when the Houston Rockets visited the Pepsi center back in 2007? Well, during the third quarter, Kenyon Martin flagrantly fouled Chuck Hayes, and the Rockets’ forward stepped to the free throw line. The ensuing shots will go down as some of the ugliest, most embarrassing shots I’ve ever seen.

If you watch the video, after Hayes’ first shot, Iverson casually walks over to the referee, loudly calls a travel.

It was a live look in on what Iverson did on a nightly basis for those he deemed inferior.
