Allen Iverson won four scoring titles during his NBA career.
He also shot a woefully inefficient 42.5 percent from the field.
But it was a different time. Scoring is much easier now, with hand-checking restricted, and Iverson would likely be more efficient if he played now.
He would also probably score more. He addressed how much more during a chat with Shaq after getting permission to toot his own horn.
Allen Iverson says he would average 43 points in today’s NBA 👀

"I lost the scoring title to Kobe the year he average 35. I averaged 33. And I'm just thinking, like, if I was to play in this era, where it's wide open. If I was to average 33, ima just take it up to 43. Ten points more," The Answer said.
Shaq agreed.
Do you?
