Former Philadelphia 76ers

legend Allen Iverson recently took to Instagram, declaring his all-time NBA starting five. Iverson, a 14-year NBA veteran and former league MVP in his own right, selected some of the usual suspects to round out his team. To begin with, he chose six-time NBA Finals MVP and 10-time scoring champion Michael Jordan. Next, he selected a five-time NBA champion and 18-time All-Star, Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant.

For his third pick, he included the newest 76ers' addition, LeBron James, who signed a two-year deal with Philadelphia this offseason. James is a four-time champion and has made All-NBA selections in 21 of his 23 NBA seasons to this point. As his first and only big man, Iverson then selected a 15-time All-Star

and another four-time NBA champion, Shaquille O'Neal, who is widely regarded as one of the most dominant players in NBA history. Last but not least, Iverson filled out his starting five with another active player, choosing a two-time MVP and four-time NBA champion, Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors.
