I spent most of my elementary school years shooting hoops in the alley outside my house with tape wrapped around my arm to emulate the arm band worn by Allen Iverson.

I would cut the sleeves off old white T-Shirts and write Iverson and a 3 on the back, with Sixers across the front in Sharpie.

I even wanted cornrows.

A stroll down memory lane, thinking back on 20 eventful years of Sixers fandom.

I wanted to be Allen Iverson when I grew up.
