Yeah but Iverson is the 2000's James Dean. Coolest dude ever and straight took it to the rim a 5'10 165 pounds. Always heard he was a better football player than basketball
That is a myth.
He would have been good enough to play in the NFL for sure, but to say he was better at football is stretching the truth. His high school highlight reel was mighty impressive, but he also never played against high level competition.
He was ranked the #1 high school senior in the country in football so it's not a myth
Could have went to any college football program in the nation. He won back to back state titles on his back.... so it ain't a myth.

Point is, we saw him excel at the highest level in the NBA. He never played college football, let alone pro. Also, what position would he have played? QB? Probably not in the NFL. He was only 6 feet tall. Surely he would have weighed more than 165 had he chosen football, but he is still awfully small.
Unless you are projecting him as Barry sanders or Jerry Rice, he would have been highly unlikely to have anywhere near as successful a football career.
This is a way better description but i was always amazed that he could do things at his size that guys way fucking bigger could and completely dominate at the same time. I watched him play and he was amazing. Not just laying it in over 7 fts, but shooting and defense.
