Man what a memory. For one night, the Philadelphia 76ers were better than the L.A. Lakers. Game 1 of the 2001 NBA Finals saw greatness at its finest, as Allen Iverson and his team of soldiers took down the might Lakers in L.A.
The signature moment of that game will always be this crossover and step-back corner jumper that Iverson nailed over Tyronn Lue. For good measure, ‘The Answer’ stepped over Lue to bury him and the Lakers.
Now a Cleveland Cavaliers assistant coach, Lue was in Philadelphia for a game on Monday. A fan asked Lue to pose for a picture wearing a t-shirt with that famous play on the front.
Lue was a good sport.
