Allen Iverson is an unremarkable small guy, but his energy is beyond imagination. Philadelphia fans are hoping Iverson will become their Michael Jordan.
Why not their Ah Gan? Because Iverson is nothing like Ah Gan. Many young fans hope the young players and teams can defeat Ah Gan.
On the night of the game day, at the Philadelphia National Bank Center, all 21,000 seats were filled. After Iverson successfully challenged Jordan, people were expecting him to challenge the ultimate boss, the perfect classical hero, Ah Gan.
On the poster at the entrance of the stadium, Allen Iverson and Gan Guoyang were opposing each other, the little guy challenging the NBA's first giant, and people eagerly anticipated Iverson would trip Gan Guoyang during the game.
The win or loss of the team wasn't that important. Winning in a one-on-one duel was a must, representing the late '90s NBA values.
