ตั้งแต่ดูหนังมา. หนังเรื่องนี้เป็นหนังที่ผมกล้าแนะนำทุกคนแบบสุดเสียง
“2,215 เชื่อ บ้า กล้า ก้าว”
ไม่ใช่แค่”น่าดู”
“แต่..ต้องดู”
หนังเรื่องนี้สร้างจากโครงการ”ก้าวคนละก้าว”ของ”ตูน บอดี้สแลม”เมื่อปลายปีที่ผ่านมา
ซึ่งกลายเป็น”ปรากฏการณ์”ที่ยิ่งใหญ่ที่สุดครั้งหนึ่งของประเทศไทย
เมื่อคนๆหนึ่งวิ่งจากใต้สุดไปเหนือสุดของเมืองไทย
ก่อนที่”ตูน”จะเริ่มโครงการนี้. เขาเข้าไปคุยกับ”พี่เก้ง”จิระ มะลิกุล.
ตอนแรก เขาอยากให้ GDH ช่วยตัดฟุตเทจจากการ LIVE ของการวิ่งไปบางสะพานเป็นหนังหรือบันทึกความทรงจำ
แต่”พี่เก้ง”และ”วรรณ”วรรณฤดี. พงษ์สิทธิศักดิ์ โปรดิวเซอร์มือทองของ GDH บอกว่าการทำหนังกับการบันทึก LIVE นั้นแตกต่างกัน
ขอเป็นโครงการใหม่ที่”ตูน”กำลังจะทำดีกว่า
“พี่เก้ง”ชอบวิ่งอยู่แล้ว.
เขาเคยไปวิ่งกับ”ตูน”มาแล้วในโครงการบางสะพาน
ได้เห็นความงดงามและพลังดีๆตลอดข้างทางที่”ตูน”วิ่ง
GDH ดึง”ไก่”ณฐพล บุญประกอบ คนเขียนบทภาพยนตร์มือดี และผู้กำกับหนังสารคดีหลายเรื่องมาเป็นผู้กำกับหนังเรื่องนี้
“ไก่”กำลังเรียนต่อที่นิวยอร์ค เรื่องสารคดี
เขาบินกลับมาทันทีเมื่อรู้ว่าได้ทำโครงการนี้
”ไก่”และน้องๆอีก 5 คน ติดตามบันทึกภาพการวิ่ง 2,215 กิโลเมตรของ”ตูน”
สารคดีแบบนี้ไม่มี”บทภาพยนตร์”ล่วงหน้า
เพราะไม่มีใครรู้ว่าจะเกิดอะไรขึ้นตลอดเวลา 55 วันนี้
จากวันนั้นจนถึงวันนี้
7 เดือนกว่า
ฟุตเทจทั้่งหมดก็กลายมาเป็นหนังสารคดีที่ยิ่งใหญ่
“2,215 เชื่อ บ้า กล้า ก้าว”
..............
ผมดูหนังเรื่องนี้เมื่อสัปดาห์ที่แล้ว
ขอ”พี่เก้ง”เหมารอบให้นักเรียน ABC ทุกรุ่นได้ดูกัน
หวังจะเป็นจุดเริ่มต้นที่ดีของการร่วมบริจาคเงินตามเป้าหมายของ”ตูน”
ตอนแรก"ตูน"ตั้งใจที่จะให้ทุกคนได้ดูฟรี
"ตูน"ขอเปลี่ยน"ค่าตั๋ว"เป็นเงินบริจาคเพื่อจัดซื้ออุปกรณ์ทางการแพทย์ ให้แก่อาคารนวมินทรบพิตร ๘๔ พรรษา คณะแพทยศาสตร์ศิริราชพยาบาล
"ราคาตั๋ว"ขึ้นอยู่กับเราจะให้ค่ากับหนังเรื่องนี้แค่ไหน
"คิงเพาเวอร์"ให้การสนับสนุนโครงการนี้เต็มที่
เหมาโรงทั้งในเครือเมเจอร์และเอสเอฟให้คนดูฟรี 700,000 กว่าที่นั่ง
แต่ตอนหลังมีคนบอกว่าถ้าเปิดให้ดูฟรีอย่างเดียว. คนที่อยากดูแต่ขี้เกียจไปลุ้นหน้าโรงว่ามีที่นั่งว่างหรือเปล่าจะไม่ไปดู
เขาก็เลยเปิดขายบัตรตามปกติแต่ราคาถูกเป็นพิเศษ
และเพิ่มช่องทางให้คนที่อยากส่งต่อแรงบันดาลใจบริจาคเงินก้อนหนึ่งเข้ามูลนิธิและเหมาโรงให้นักเรียนหรือคนในบริษัทมาดู
"2,125 เชื่อ บ้า กล้า ก้าว"เป็นหนังที่น่ารักมากๆครับ
หนังเรื่องนี้พาเราให้ย้อนอดีตกลับไปสู่ช่วงเวลาแห่งความสุขอีกครั้งหนึ่ง
เรื่องราวของผู้ชายรูปร่างผอมบางคนหนึ่ง.
บนเวที เขาเป็น"ร็อคสตาร์"อันดับหนึ่งของเมืองไทย
แต่ช่วงเวลานั้น "ตูน"คือ คนที่ทั้ง"บ้า"และ"ดื้อ"กับเกมที่เขากำหนดขึ้นมาเอง
55 วันกับระยะทาง 2,215 กิโลเมตร
ไม่มีการผ่อนปรนอะไรทั้งสิ้น
มีฉากหนึ่งที่ทีมงานบอกให้"ตูน"เลิกแวะถ่ายรูปหรือทักทายกับคนที่ยืนรอตามทาง
แต่"ตูน"บอกว่าเขาทำไม่ได้
ทุกคนอยากเจอเขา
ถ้าเขาวิ่งผ่านไป. ภาพนั้นก็จะยังติดตาเขาอยู่
แล้วจะ"คาใจ"ว่าทำไมไม่ทักทายคนที่รอเจอเขา
นั่นคือ "ตูน"
......
สิ่งที่ผมชอบมากในหนังเรื่องนี้ คือ บทภาพยนตร์
"ไก่"เก่งมาก
เขาเขียนบทจาก"ความจริง"ที่เกิดขึ้น
แต่เสริมแต่งอย่างเหมาะสม
ไม่ว่าจะเป็นการสัมภาษณ์พ่อ-แม่ของ"ตูน"ถึงวัยเด็ก
หรือการใช้เส้นเรื่องจากการสัมภาษณ์"กบ"บิ๊กแอส
คนที่แต่งเพลงให้"ตูน"
และเข้าใจ"ตูน"มากที่สุดคนหนึ่ง
เพราะ"ตูน"เป็นคนขี้อายที่จะพูดถึงตัวเองในมุมดีๆ
คำพูดของ"กบ"จึงช่วยทำให้เรารู้จัก"ตูน"มากขึ้น
ในมุมที่เราไม่เคยรู้มาก่อน
บอกได้เลยว่าหนังเรื่องนี้คมคายขึ้นเพราะคำพูดของ”กบ”
แต่ละประโยคของ"กบ"คมมากครับ
ในหนังเราจะเห็นว่าแท้จริง”ตูน”ก็เป็นคนธรรมดาคนหนึ่ง
ไม่ใช่”ซูเปอร์ฮีโร่”
มีทั้งอารมณ์เกรี้ยวกราด ขว้างของ บนรถบ้าน
ดื้อกับแม่
หรือมุขแป๊กในบางเวลา
แต่”ความยิ่งใหญ่”ของ”ตูน”คือ ขนาดของ”หัวใจ”
คุณเคยดูหนังที่ไม่อยากให้จบไหมครับ
ตอนที่หนังเดินเรื่องมาถึงเชียงราย
เรารู้แล้วว่าหนังกำลังจะจบ
เพราะอีกนิดเดียวก็ถึง”แม่สาย”
ปลายทางของการวิ่งครั้งนี้
แต่เรายังอยากดูต่อ
ไม่อยากให้จบ
แต่ไม่ว่า”ความปรารถนา”ของเราจะเป็นอย่างไร
“ความจริง”ก็คือ”ความจริง”
หนังเรื่องนี้ต้องจบ
เหมือนกับ”ชีวิต”ที่ต้องมีการแยกจาก
ถ้าถามว่าหนังเรื่องนี้ให้อะไรกับเรา
ตอบได้เลยครับว่าให้แรงบันดาลใจที่ท่วมท้น
ได้ตั้งคำถามกับตัวเองว่าเราได้ทำอะไรเพื่อผู้อื่นบ้างหรือยัง
ไม่ต้องเป็นสิ่งที่ยิ่งใหญ่ระดับชาติเหมือน”ตูน”
เพราะทุกคนมี”ขนาด”ที่เหมาะสมของตัวเอง
ไม่ต้องทำใหญ่เท่าเขา
แต่ให้ทำแบบเขา
ทำเพื่อคนอื่น
มีคนถามผมว่าเขามีเงินอยู่ก้อนหนึ่ง
จะบริจาคเข้ามูลนิธิทั้งหมดหรือเหมาโรงให้คนในบริษัทหรือนักเรียนได้ดูหนังเรื่องดี
คำแนะนำของผมก็คือ...
“เหมาโรงเถอะครับ”
เพราะผมเชื่อว่าหนังเรื่องนี้เหมือน”น้ำ”และ”ปุ๋ย”ที่จะช่วยให้ต้นไม้”ความดี”ในใจที่ทุกคนมีอยู่เติบโตขึ้น
ถ้าแค่ครึ่งหนึ่งของคนที่ได้ดูหนังเรื่องนี้คิดจะทำเพื่อคนอื่นแบบ"ตูน"
สังคมไทยคงงดงาม
..........
วันที่ดูหนังฝนตกหนักทำให้มีที่นั่งเหลือพอประมาณ
ผมติดนิสัยชอบดูหนังคนเดียวแบบโล่งๆก็เลยเลือกที่นั่งแถวหน้าๆ
เป็นแถวที่ไม่มีคนนั่งเลย
ช่างเป็นการตัดสินใจที่ถูกต้องมาก
เพราะหนังเริ่มไปแค่ 5 นาที.
นัยน์ตาเริ่มมีความเปียกชื้นมาปกคลุม
ถ้ามีคนนั่งติดกัน. ผมจะรักษาฟอร์ม นั่งนิ่งๆ ปล่อยให้น้ำตาเอ่อไปเรื่อยๆ.
ความมืดในโรงหนังมีประโยชน์ตรงนี้
ถ้าเราไม่แสดงอาการ ไม่มีใครรู้หรอกว่าเรากำลังร้องไห้
ถ้ารำคาญมากก็แกล้งคันตาหลังจากซีนนั้นผ่านไป
แล้วก็พยายามดึงอารมณ์ไม่ให้คล้อยตามหนัง
จะไม่ยอมเสียฟอร์มควักผ้าเช็ดหน้าขึ้นมาเด็ดขาด
แต่วันนี้สบายมากครับ
ทั้งแถวที่นั่ง ไม่มีใครเห็น
ผมควักผ้าเช็ดหน้าออกจากกระเป๋ากางเกงอย่างสง่าผ่าเผยเลย
ถอดแว่น แล้วซับน้ำตา
ก่อนเก็บผ้าเช็ดหน้าเข้ากระเป๋า
ผ่านไปอีกพักหนึ่ง. เฮ้ย...คลออีกแล้ว
เหมือนเดิม
ควักผ้าเช็ดหน้าขึ้นมา เสร็จแล้วเก็บเข้ากระเป๋า
พอถึงกลางเรื่องเอาอีกแล้ว
ครั้งนี้ผมควักผ้าเช็ดหน้าวางไว้บนตักเลย
ท้า”ไก่”ณัฐพล. ผู้กำกับฯในใจ
รู้แล้วว่าเขาไม่หยุดแน่
เอาเลย”ไก่”... ตามสบาย
"ผ้าเช็ดหน้า"พร้อม
"2,125 เชื่อ บ้า กล้า ก้าว"ไม่ใช่หนังเศร้า
แต่เป็นหนังที่น่ารักมากๆ
คุณเคยเจอหนังที่น่ารักจนจนน้ำตาคลอเพราะความประทับใจไหมครับ
หนังเรื่องนี้เป็นแบบนั้น
..........
ตอนใกล้จบของ”2,215 เชื่อ บ้า กล้า ก้าว”
มีฉาก”ตูน”บอกกับทีมงานก่อนลงไปวิ่งครั้งสุดท้าย
“จบแล้ว ไม่ทำอีกแล้ว”
เหมือนจะบอกทีมงานที่เหน็ดเหนื่อยทุกคนว่า”อาทิวราห์ คงมาลัย”จะไม่ทำอะไรบ้าๆแบบนี้อีก
ผมเชื่อว่าฉากนี้”ไก่”คงไม่ได้คิดเอง
แต่ทีมงาน”ก้าว”กดดันผู้กำกับ
ขอให้มีฉากนี้ในหนัง
เพื่อเป็นหลักฐานยืนยัน
เวลา”ตูน”คิดอะไรบ้าๆขึ้นมาอีก
ทุกคนจะเอาฉากนี้ให้”ตูน”ดู
“สัญญาว่าไง”
เพราะทุกคนรู้ดีว่า”ตูน”คงไม่จบแค่นี้แน่นอน
“เส้นชัย”สำหรับ”ตูน”
มันคือ “การสิ้นสุด”ของสิ่งหนึ่ง
เพื่อจะ”เริ่มต้น”สิ่งใหม่เท่านั้นเอง
เพราะนี่คือ”ความสุข”แท้จริงที่เขาได้ค้นพบแล้ว
Since I watched the movie. This movie is a movie that I dare to recommend everyone.
" Haha. I believe that I'm crazy. I dare to
Not just "nice to watch"
"But.. must watch"
This movie is made from the " One Step " project of " Toon Bodyslam " at the end of the year.
Which became the greatest "phenomenon" of Thailand.
When someone runs from south to the north of Thailand
Before "Toon" starts this project. He went in to talk to "Brother Keng" Jira Mali KUl.
At first he wanted GDH to help cut the foot from the live of running to bang saphan or a movie.
But " Brother Predatory " and " Wan " Wan Rit Dee. Pongsak, GDH's golden producer said that the movie making and live recording is different.
Let's be a new project that "Toon" is about to do.
"Brother Predatory" likes to run anyway.
He has been running with "Toon" in Bang Saphan project.
I have seen the beauty and good power on the side of the road that "Toon" runs.
GDH Pull "Kai" Nathaphon Bunprakkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
"Chicken" is studying in New York about documentaries.
He flew right back when he found out this project.
" Kai " and 5 other sisters follow the 2,215 km run of " Toon "
Documentaries like this don't have " screenplay
Because no one knows what will happen all the time 55 today
From that day till today
Over 7 months
All the footage became a great documentary.
" Haha. I believe that I'm crazy. I dare to
..............
I watched this movie last week
Asking for "Brother Predatory" to buy round for all models of ABC students to watch.
Hope to be a good start of donating money according to "Toon" goal.
First episode "Toon" intended to let everyone watch for free.
" Toon " would like to change " ticket " to buy medical equipment for Akaranwamin 8 4 Buddhist Lent of Medicine Siriraj.
"Ticket price" depends on how much we value this movie.
"King Power" supports this project.
Buying both major and SF group for more than 700,000 seats to watch.
But later, someone told me that if I open it for free only. Those who want to watch but lazy to see if there is an empty seat. I won't go to see.
So they are open for sale as usual, but it's cheap.
And add a way to those who want to pass on inspiration to donate money to the foundation and buy a school for students or company.
"Haha. I believe that I dare to step" is a very cute movie.
This movie takes us back to the happy times.
The story of some skinny man.
On stage he is the number one "rock star" in Thailand.
But that moment " Toon " is the one who is " crazy " and " stubborn " with his own game.
55 days and 2,215 km distance
No respite at all
There is a scene where the team told "Toon" to stop by to take photos or say hi to those who are waiting along the way.
But "Toon" says he can't.
Everyone wants to see him
If he runs through. That picture will still be stuck in his eyes
Why don't you say hi to those who wait to see him?
That's "Toon"
......
My favorite thing in this movie is the movie.
"Chicken" is very good
He wrote a script from "truth"
But enhance the proper decoration.
Whether it's an interview for "Toon" to childhood.
Or using the line from the "Kop" interview.
The one who wrote the song for "Toon"
And understand one of the most "Toon"
Because "Toon" is shy to talk about himself in a good corner.
The words of " Kop " help us know more about " Toon "
In a corner we never knew.
I can tell that this movie is sharp because of the words of " frog
Each sentence of "Kop" is very sharp.
In the movie, we will see that "Toon" is an ordinary person.
Not a " superhero
There is a temper, angry, throwing stuff on the car.
Stubborn with mom
Or a joke some time
But the " greatness " of " Toon " is the size of " heart "
Have you ever finished watching a movie that you don't want to finish?
When the movie came to Chiang Rai
We knew the movie was about to end.
Because just a little bit more to "Mae Sai"
Destination of this run
But we still want to continue watching
Don't want to finish
But no matter what our "desire" is.
" Truth " is " truth "
This movie must end
Just like "life" to be separated from
If you ask what this movie gave us
I can answer that it gives overwhelming inspiration.
Have you asked myself what have we done for others?
No need to be a national big thing like "Toon"
Because everyone has their own "size"
No need to do it as big as him
But let's do it like him
Do it for others.
Someone asked me if he had a bar of money
Do you want to donate to all the foundation or buy theaters for people in the company or students to watch movies?
My advice is...
"Let's buy the shed"
Because I believe that this movie is like " water " and " fertilizer " that will help the " goodness " in mind that everyone has growing up.
If only half of the people watched this movie think about doing it for other people like "Toon"
Thai society would be beautiful
..........
Movie day. Heavy rain makes a lot of seats left.
I'm addicted to watching movies alone, so I choose front row seats.
It's a row where there is no one to sit.
What a right decision
Because the movie started for 5 minutes.
Eyes are getting wet.
If someone sits in a row. I will keep the form, sit still, let the tears, uh, go.
Darkness in the theater is useful here.
If we don't show symptoms, nobody knows we're crying.
If you are very annoyed, pretending to be itchy after that scene has passed
Then try to pull the mood from the movie
I won't lose the form to take a handkerchief.
But today is very comfortable.
The whole row of seats, no one can see.
I took the handkerchief out of my pants gracefully.
Taking off my glasses and tears
Before packing handkerchief in the bag
It's been a while. Hey... again
Same same same same as usual
Finished taking the handkerchief and packed it in the bag.
When it comes to the middle of the story again
This time I put my handkerchief on my lap
Challenge "chicken" at cuddle thaphon. Director in mind
I know he won't stop
Go ahead "chicken"... at ease.
"Handkerchief" ready
"Haha. I believe that I dare to step" not a sad movie.
But what a lovely movie
Have you ever met a movie that is so cute that you cry because of the impression?
This movie is like that
..........
Near the end of "Haha. I believe that I dare to step"
There is a scene "Toon" to tell the team before going down to run for the last
"It's done. I won't do it again"
It seems to tell all the tired team that " Sunday, I will never do anything crazy like this.
I believe this scene "chicken" doesn't think about it.
But the team "step" pressures the director.
Let's have this scene in the movie
For proof of confirmation.
When "Toon" thinks more crazy
Everyone will show this scene to "Toon"
" What do you promise
Because everyone knows that "Toon" won't end this for sure.
" finish line " for " Toon "
It's the "ending" of one thing.
To "start" something new
Because this is the true "happiness" he has discovered.Translated

I was debating with myself whether I should post this. Finally, I thought “F*** it, this might encourage or motivate someone”. I’m all about spreading truth and positivity, so here goes.
Whether you believe it or not, I grew up with body dysmorphia. I don’t think anybody ever knew this about me, not even my closest friends or family. I’ve had various skin problems throughout my childhood and even into adulthood, most of which, I’m fairly certain, could be attributed to a bad diet and stress. At times, the psychological impact of not only the skin issues but also other physical features was severe enough that I would shy away from certain social activities or even avoid them completely. Some of these issues left physical and emotional scars.
Over the years, I have worked very hard on fixing myself, without letting anybody know what I was going through. Some people who don’t know my struggle might think of me as arrogant, narcissistic or simply a show-off. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. I have always been extremely self-critical and have always yearned for being accepted by others. That said, weirdly yet fortunately, I have always had love for myself, which probably was what gave me the hope and the strength to fight through all my insecurities. I’m happy I can say I have overcome most of them.
Sometimes, people compliment me on the growth they’ve seen me go through as a person and on how I come across on TV, which I really appreciate, but the most important growth is only apparent to myself. I am proud of what I have accomplished internally. It feels very liberating to be able to do things I used to be scared of doing when I was younger.
Shame is one of the most toxic emotions a person can feel. We should not be ashamed of enjoying the freedom of being true to ourselves as long as we don’t harm others. Do not shame others for having the courage to do things you wish you could do. Love yourself and work hard to become the best person you can be. Trust me, I know the struggle. You may be waiting for help, but it starts with you.

I was on FaceTime with my sister (Mrs Mom) one night and Ali came over. He said to me very excitedly, “I’ve just published my own book today!” I didn’t expect to hear that from him, but I quickly said, “Wow, that’s good news!” Ali got even more excited and he started showing me the content of his book. He explained every part of his book, one by one. Then I asked him, “How much is your book?” He was stunned a bit, then slowly he said, “Umm, £3...” I guess he wasn’t thinking how much his book would be 😁 So I said to him, “Ah, £3! I wanna buy your book. Can you sell your book to me please?” Oh, you should have seen his face...Ali was ecstatic! He was over the moon!!
—
For some, this book may be meaningless, coming from a 4yr-old boy. But for me, this book means the whole world. And I’m so proud to be ALI’S FIRST CUSTOMER! I remember so well how my parents raised me. Every little idea I had when I was a child, they always listened, they appreciated, they praised, they encouraged. They always took me seriously. Not once did they ignore me. Not once did they tell me that my idea or what I did was bad or useless. Not once. There was so much love, so much support, so much encouragement...from my childhood until now. Truly, it all started at home. And now I want to give the same thing back to my nephews and nieces. Love. Appreciation. Support. Encouragement ♥️

have you seen my childhood 在 pennyccw Youtube 的評價
For those who were there at McDonough Gymnasium on August 4, 1994, few will forget the arrival of a 6-0 freshman guard who needed no introduction. The rumors of Allen Iverson's arrival to the Kenner Summer League were true, and by game's end, Iverson had scored 40 points. By the Sunday afternoon final, before an overflow crowd inside the gym and a crowd of those outside who could not get in, Iverson finished a combined 99 point effort in three days against some of the best collegiate talent in the city. This, of course, from a player that had not played organized basketball in over a year.
The Allen Iverson years had begun.
A brief profile can't do justice to tell the story of one of the greatest pure athletes ever to attend Georgetown, a man without peer in his talent over two years at the collegiate level. Just a year before his Kenner debut, few would have imagined Allen Iverson ever playing college basketball.
Iverson was not only a 31 point a game guard for Bethel HS, but a football player of tremendous skill. As a quarterback and defensive back his sophomore season, he produced nearly 1,600 yards offense and 13 INT's. By his junior year, he accounted for 2,204 yards, 21 touchdowns by rush or interception, and 14 touchdown passes. In a region which has produced NFL quarterbacks such as Michael Vick and Aaron Brooks, there are those who will still say "Bubbachuck" Iverson was better than both of them. Schools such as Arkansas, Kentucky, Duke, and three dozen other top programs across two sports were vying for perhaps the greatest two-sport star the Tidewater had ever produced.
When he led Bethel to the state title, someone asked what it was like to win the title. "I'm going to get one in basketball now," which he did. In late February, 1993, en route to the state title he had promised, Iverson was one of a large group of Bethel teammates at a Hampton bowling alley when a fight broke out between students from rival schools trading racial insults. Three people were hurt in the aftermath. Despite conflicting testimony from eyewitnesses and no clear evidence linking him to the crime, Iverson was one of four black students arrested.
Racial tensions were heightened when the prosecutors passed on a misdemeanor assault charge and charged Iverson with three counts of felony "maiming by mob", which carried a 20 year prison sentence. Despite video evidence which did not place Iverson in the crowd at the time of the fight, he was convicted in a racially charged case.
The 20 year sentence was later reduced to five, and Iverson was granted clemency by Gov. Douglas Wilder three months later, sending Iverson to a detention program at an alternative high school. (The original charges were thrown out by the Virginia court of appeals in 1995.)
In the spring of 1994, with Iverson still in detention, his mother approached John Thompson with a plea to help her son get to college and start a new chapter of his life. Though Thompson had passed on a number of troubled players in the past, he offered Iverson a scholarship in April of that season, contingent upon his completion of high school and his legal release, which was granted 48 hours before his Kenner debut.
By his debut in a Georgetown uniform in November 1994, Iverson had been the subject of intense national media attention. In the Hoyas' annual exhibition with Fort Hood, Iverson scored 36 points, five assists, and three steals in 23 minutes. Local columnists were in awe.
"Hang his number up in the rafters," wrote Tom Knott of the Washington Times. "He's better than most of the point guards in the NBA right now."
"I saw Lew Alcindor, Austin Carr, Moses Malone, Alonzo Mourning, Albert King, Ralph Sampson and Patrick Ewing play in high school," said the Post's Thomas Boswell. "Now, I have two memories on my first impression top shelf. The man who became Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Allen Iverson."
Iverson opened the 1994-95 season in Memphis, TN in a 97-79 loss to defending NCAA champion Arkansas, scoring 19 points. Six days later, he scored 31 in a nationally televised game with DePaul, followed by 30 four days later against Providence, leading the team in scoring 22 times that season. His only game under double figures for the season (and his career) was a game where he played only ten minutes in a loss at Villanova, a game Georgetown coach John Thompson threatened to forfeit when a group of Villanova students paraded through the Spectrum in black and white-striped prison garb, with a sign comparing Iverson to O.J. Simpson.
"You accept certain ribbing, but there is a line," Thompson said after the game. "I can condone any Christian university sitting and watching that happen...If that happens [again], I going to walk. It that simple." Such fan behavior was not seen thereafter.
Later in the season, with President Bill Clinton in attendance, Iverson scored 26 as the Hoyas routed Villanova, 77-52. He followed it up with 21 to beat Syracuse, 28 versus St. John's, 31 in a Big East tournament opener with Miami (a game that saw Iverson outscore the entire Hurricane team at the end of the first half), and 27 versus Connecticut in the semis. In the NCAA regional, he scored 24 in the loss, but held Jeff McInnis to 1 for 8 shooting. By season's end, Allen Iverson had been named Big East Player of the Week nine times, Rookie of the Year, a second team all-conference selection, and honorable mention All-America recipient. Having led the Hoyas in points and steals en route to the school's first NCAA regional appearance since 1989, Iverson was already a star. By 1996, he would become nothing less than a sensation.
The leaser of a talented team that featured four future NBA stars, Allen Iverson dominated the 1995-96 season as no Hoya has done before or since. Adept at the crossover dribble that became his NBA trademark, lightning quick to the basket, and able to score on opponents at will, Iverson was largely unstoppable. Even more impressive was an effort to improve his shooting touch, for despite averaging 20.4 points as a freshman in 1994-95 (2nd all time for a Georgetown rookie), Iverson only shot 39 percent from the field, 23 percent from three, and 19 percent from three in Big East play. For his sophomore season, his field shooting increased to 48 percent, his three point mark to 36 percent. The results were striking.
In the pre-season NIT versus Temple, Iverson shot 50 percent for 24 points and a career high 10 rebounds. After a 23 point effort against Georgia Tech, he scored a career high 40 against Arizona, one of two 40+ point games that season. In Big East play, Iverson could ring up points with ease, such as the game where he scored 21 points in only 20 minutes against Rutgers.
In the final three months of the season, Iverson led the team in 21 of the team's 25 games: 40 against Seton Hall, 39 against St. John's, 34 against Providence. He scored 30 in a wild win over Memphis, and followed it up two nights later with 26 in an upset of #3 Connecticut. For the game, Iverson totalled 26 points, 8 steals, and 6 assists, including a soaring dunk past Ray Allen and the Huskies. It was the highest ranked team any Georgetown team had defeated since 1988. His best performance of the season might have been a 37 point, 8 rebound, and three steal effort against #6 ranked Villanova, playing only 27 minutes. The 106-68 win represents the sixth largest margin of victory and the largest margin ever by a Georgetown team against a top 10 opponent.
Iverson was capable of an off game; unfortunately, two came at particularly inopportune times for the Hoyas' hopes for a national title. Entering the 1996 Big East Final with a #1 seed on the line, Iverson shot 4 for 15 and the Hoyas lost by one, 76-75. As a result of the loss, Georgetown was seeded #2 behind top ranked UMass, and in the regional final between the two teams Iverson struggled with a 6 for 21 effort in the loss. For the season, though, his statistics were astonishing: his 926 points broke the then-record by 124 points. He set new single season marks in field goals, field goal attempts, three pointers, three point attempts, steals, minutes, and scoring average (25.0), the latter of which ranked 7th in the nation that season. The Big East's defensive player of the year, he was named a consensus All-American amidst numerous other awards.
If he could somehow have stayed four years, Iverson undoubtedly would have shredded the Georgetown record books. But whatever hopes existed for Iverson to resist the lure of the NBA were short lived, particularly with the news that one of his sisters had fallen ill. Seeing the opportunity to take care of his family's medical needs, Iverson announced for the NBA draft soon after the end of his sophomore season, becoming the first Georgetown player in the Thompson era to do so. The compact that had bound so many great Hoya players to a four year commitment--from Ewing to Williams, Mourning to Mutombo--had now been broken.
The first pick in the 1996 NBA draft, Iverson signed a $3.9 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers and a ten year, $50 million deal with Reebok. His effort on the court is well known and respected, but for all the media portrayals of Iverson as the anti-hero, an icon of a "Hip Hop Nation" that ran counter to the NBA's carefully constructed marketing image, or as a symbol of all that is allegedly wrong in professional basketball, he remains remarkably well-grounded.
Married for six years and the father of two, Iverson is fiercely loyal to his teammates and to his childhood friends. He considered it an honor to play for the U.S. Olympic team in 2004 when other NBA stars passed on the offer, and maintains a number of charity events to benefit his local community. In comparison to his NBA career, his years at Georgetown were largely free of the intense media and personal scrutiny, providing at least two years where he could grow as a person as well as a basketball player.
His arrival and exit at Georgetown is still a source of debate in some circles, but his performance on the court is not. Allen Iverson found a home, even briefly, at the Hilltop, and remains one of its brightest stars. "In my heart, I know I'm a basketball player," Iverson said following his 2006 NBA trade, "being that I know I can play with the best of them."
From that first Kenner League game on 1994, no one has doubted it since.

For those who were there at McDonough Gymnasium on August 4, 1994, few will forget the arrival of a 6-0 freshman guard who needed no introduction. The rumors of Allen Iverson's arrival to the Kenner Summer League were true, and by game's end, Iverson had scored 40 points. By the Sunday afternoon final, before an overflow crowd inside the gym and a crowd of those outside who could not get in, Iverson finished a combined 99 point effort in three days against some of the best collegiate talent in the city. This, of course, from a player that had not played organized basketball in over a year.
The Allen Iverson years had begun.
A brief profile can't do justice to tell the story of one of the greatest pure athletes ever to attend Georgetown, a man without peer in his talent over two years at the collegiate level. Just a year before his Kenner debut, few would have imagined Allen Iverson ever playing college basketball.
Iverson was not only a 31 point a game guard for Bethel HS, but a football player of tremendous skill. As a quarterback and defensive back his sophomore season, he produced nearly 1,600 yards offense and 13 INT's. By his junior year, he accounted for 2,204 yards, 21 touchdowns by rush or interception, and 14 touchdown passes. In a region which has produced NFL quarterbacks such as Michael Vick and Aaron Brooks, there are those who will still say "Bubbachuck" Iverson was better than both of them. Schools such as Arkansas, Kentucky, Duke, and three dozen other top programs across two sports were vying for perhaps the greatest two-sport star the Tidewater had ever produced.
When he led Bethel to the state title, someone asked what it was like to win the title. "I'm going to get one in basketball now," which he did. In late February, 1993, en route to the state title he had promised, Iverson was one of a large group of Bethel teammates at a Hampton bowling alley when a fight broke out between students from rival schools trading racial insults. Three people were hurt in the aftermath. Despite conflicting testimony from eyewitnesses and no clear evidence linking him to the crime, Iverson was one of four black students arrested.
Racial tensions were heightened when the prosecutors passed on a misdemeanor assault charge and charged Iverson with three counts of felony "maiming by mob", which carried a 20 year prison sentence. Despite video evidence which did not place Iverson in the crowd at the time of the fight, he was convicted in a racially charged case.
The 20 year sentence was later reduced to five, and Iverson was granted clemency by Gov. Douglas Wilder three months later, sending Iverson to a detention program at an alternative high school. (The original charges were thrown out by the Virginia court of appeals in 1995.)
In the spring of 1994, with Iverson still in detention, his mother approached John Thompson with a plea to help her son get to college and start a new chapter of his life. Though Thompson had passed on a number of troubled players in the past, he offered Iverson a scholarship in April of that season, contingent upon his completion of high school and his legal release, which was granted 48 hours before his Kenner debut.
By his debut in a Georgetown uniform in November 1994, Iverson had been the subject of intense national media attention. In the Hoyas' annual exhibition with Fort Hood, Iverson scored 36 points, five assists, and three steals in 23 minutes. Local columnists were in awe.
"Hang his number up in the rafters," wrote Tom Knott of the Washington Times. "He's better than most of the point guards in the NBA right now."
"I saw Lew Alcindor, Austin Carr, Moses Malone, Alonzo Mourning, Albert King, Ralph Sampson and Patrick Ewing play in high school," said the Post's Thomas Boswell. "Now, I have two memories on my first impression top shelf. The man who became Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Allen Iverson."
Iverson opened the 1994-95 season in Memphis, TN in a 97-79 loss to defending NCAA champion Arkansas, scoring 19 points. Six days later, he scored 31 in a nationally televised game with DePaul, followed by 30 four days later against Providence, leading the team in scoring 22 times that season. His only game under double figures for the season (and his career) was a game where he played only ten minutes in a loss at Villanova, a game Georgetown coach John Thompson threatened to forfeit when a group of Villanova students paraded through the Spectrum in black and white-striped prison garb, with a sign comparing Iverson to O.J. Simpson.
"You accept certain ribbing, but there is a line," Thompson said after the game. "I can condone any Christian university sitting and watching that happen...If that happens [again], I going to walk. It that simple." Such fan behavior was not seen thereafter.
Later in the season, with President Bill Clinton in attendance, Iverson scored 26 as the Hoyas routed Villanova, 77-52. He followed it up with 21 to beat Syracuse, 28 versus St. John's, 31 in a Big East tournament opener with Miami (a game that saw Iverson outscore the entire Hurricane team at the end of the first half), and 27 versus Connecticut in the semis. In the NCAA regional, he scored 24 in the loss, but held Jeff McInnis to 1 for 8 shooting. By season's end, Allen Iverson had been named Big East Player of the Week nine times, Rookie of the Year, a second team all-conference selection, and honorable mention All-America recipient. Having led the Hoyas in points and steals en route to the school's first NCAA regional appearance since 1989, Iverson was already a star. By 1996, he would become nothing less than a sensation.
The leaser of a talented team that featured four future NBA stars, Allen Iverson dominated the 1995-96 season as no Hoya has done before or since. Adept at the crossover dribble that became his NBA trademark, lightning quick to the basket, and able to score on opponents at will, Iverson was largely unstoppable. Even more impressive was an effort to improve his shooting touch, for despite averaging 20.4 points as a freshman in 1994-95 (2nd all time for a Georgetown rookie), Iverson only shot 39 percent from the field, 23 percent from three, and 19 percent from three in Big East play. For his sophomore season, his field shooting increased to 48 percent, his three point mark to 36 percent. The results were striking.
In the pre-season NIT versus Temple, Iverson shot 50 percent for 24 points and a career high 10 rebounds. After a 23 point effort against Georgia Tech, he scored a career high 40 against Arizona, one of two 40+ point games that season. In Big East play, Iverson could ring up points with ease, such as the game where he scored 21 points in only 20 minutes against Rutgers.
In the final three months of the season, Iverson led the team in 21 of the team's 25 games: 40 against Seton Hall, 39 against St. John's, 34 against Providence. He scored 30 in a wild win over Memphis, and followed it up two nights later with 26 in an upset of #3 Connecticut. For the game, Iverson totalled 26 points, 8 steals, and 6 assists, including a soaring dunk past Ray Allen and the Huskies. It was the highest ranked team any Georgetown team had defeated since 1988. His best performance of the season might have been a 37 point, 8 rebound, and three steal effort against #6 ranked Villanova, playing only 27 minutes. The 106-68 win represents the sixth largest margin of victory and the largest margin ever by a Georgetown team against a top 10 opponent.
Iverson was capable of an off game; unfortunately, two came at particularly inopportune times for the Hoyas' hopes for a national title. Entering the 1996 Big East Final with a #1 seed on the line, Iverson shot 4 for 15 and the Hoyas lost by one, 76-75. As a result of the loss, Georgetown was seeded #2 behind top ranked UMass, and in the regional final between the two teams Iverson struggled with a 6 for 21 effort in the loss. For the season, though, his statistics were astonishing: his 926 points broke the then-record by 124 points. He set new single season marks in field goals, field goal attempts, three pointers, three point attempts, steals, minutes, and scoring average (25.0), the latter of which ranked 7th in the nation that season. The Big East's defensive player of the year, he was named a consensus All-American amidst numerous other awards.
If he could somehow have stayed four years, Iverson undoubtedly would have shredded the Georgetown record books. But whatever hopes existed for Iverson to resist the lure of the NBA were short lived, particularly with the news that one of his sisters had fallen ill. Seeing the opportunity to take care of his family's medical needs, Iverson announced for the NBA draft soon after the end of his sophomore season, becoming the first Georgetown player in the Thompson era to do so. The compact that had bound so many great Hoya players to a four year commitment--from Ewing to Williams, Mourning to Mutombo--had now been broken.
The first pick in the 1996 NBA draft, Iverson signed a $3.9 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers and a ten year, $50 million deal with Reebok. His effort on the court is well known and respected, but for all the media portrayals of Iverson as the anti-hero, an icon of a "Hip Hop Nation" that ran counter to the NBA's carefully constructed marketing image, or as a symbol of all that is allegedly wrong in professional basketball, he remains remarkably well-grounded.
Married for six years and the father of two, Iverson is fiercely loyal to his teammates and to his childhood friends. He considered it an honor to play for the U.S. Olympic team in 2004 when other NBA stars passed on the offer, and maintains a number of charity events to benefit his local community. In comparison to his NBA career, his years at Georgetown were largely free of the intense media and personal scrutiny, providing at least two years where he could grow as a person as well as a basketball player.
His arrival and exit at Georgetown is still a source of debate in some circles, but his performance on the court is not. Allen Iverson found a home, even briefly, at the Hilltop, and remains one of its brightest stars. "In my heart, I know I'm a basketball player," Iverson said following his 2006 NBA trade, "being that I know I can play with the best of them."
