Oh，you probably thought you knew him; that you had made his ac－quaintance years ago and after countless All-Star Game appear－ances and sneaker ads; that you had come to know him fairly well.
Sure, you always knew he was no saint, that he sometimes was impetuous and irreverent and was part of his youthfulness; that in time, he would mature and realize our hopes for someone so gifted and rich.
Sorry to burst your bubble, folks, but that ain’t gonna happen. Allen Iverson is who he is, and despite our sincere so get used to ithopes, he apparently isn’t going to change, at least not any time soon.
Get used to seeing the 6- foot 76ers guard as we saw him these past two seasons, domi－nating the game like few players his size. And get used to seeing him as we expect to, surrendering to police under a cloud of criminal allegations.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is the real Allen Iverson. One part hoops hero. One part roughneck.
What’s that saying about being able to take “the man out of the hood”but not“the hood out of the man”?
唔，你也许认为自己很了解他，他就像是一个与你相交多年的老朋友。当他在无数次的全明星赛场和运动鞋广告中出现后，你已经对他相当了解了。
当然，你也知道他从来不是一个圣人，有时候他是非常粗暴无礼的，甚至还有点流氓气。不过你也会把这归咎为他还年轻，假以时日，他会逐渐成熟，并慢慢意识到我们对天赋过人的他抱着多大的期望。
各位，抱歉勾起了你们的美好想像。但遗憾的是，那无法成为现实。阿伦·艾弗森就是这样固执的一个人，尽管我们真诚地希望他能够变得更成熟，但他显然没有改变自己的打算———至少现在没有。
所以我们还是学会去习惯这样的他吧！
就像在上两个赛季所看到的一样，我们已经习惯于这个仅6英尺的费城76人队后卫主宰整场比赛，很少有像他这般身材的人能做到这一点。然后我们也习惯于看到在面临一堆犯罪指控时，他与预料中一样向警察投案自首。
这就是真正的阿伦·艾弗森：一半是篮球场上的孤胆英雄，另一半是街头的流氓阿飞。
要怎么样劝告他才能去掉他的痞子气，但又能同时保留他好斗骁勇的精神呢？
