Iverson channels practice rant in Atlanta Braves commercial

Brandon Apter, Sports Talk Philly editor  

Philadelphia 76ers icon Allen Iverson is mostly known for his MVP awards, accomplishments with the Sixers and most recently, his Hall of Fame induction. Oh, and you can't forget how he led the Sixers to an NBA Finals appearance during his MVP season. Another instance that Iverson is remembered for all around the sports world is his practice rant. A few days ago, he channeled his practice presser to do a promo for the Atlanta Braves and their fans concern about parking at their new ballpark.

The Braves new stadium, SunTrust Park, will have nearly 15,000 parking spots, but getting to them will be the issue. Atlanta is one of the busiest cities in the nation, and the new ballpark is smack dab in the middle of their most crowded highways.

Nice to see A.I. has found humor in his practice rant from 15 years ago. Iverson will serve as a player/coach in the new BIG3 Basketball League, debuting this summer.
