Allen Iverson, the 31-year-old man, has become the most exciting player in the NBA. At 1.83 meters tall, he is as fast as lightening and no one can stop him. However, Allen used to be the trouble maker that the NBA did not want.

Born to a single mother, Allen had a very hard childhood. He grew up on dangerous blocks in the US. Sometimes his house had no electricity, hot water or lights. He sometimes stayed with his friends in his teenage life and a couple of times he even stayed in a shelter(避难所). Because of his terrible childhood, Iverson became as tough(粗暴的) as his friends .

Allen was always a trouble maker. When he was in high school, he was once put in jail(监狱) for throwing a chair to a white girl. Later on, he was put in jail a second time because of fast driving. When he was on the school basketball team, he didn’t like practicing and even laughed at his coach. Because of the troubles he had made, the NBA at first didn’t want him.

He was a talented basketball player but with bad behavior. Allen realized that he wouldn’t win any championship or be the top if he didn’t change himself. He looked at himself in the mirror and asked, “Who is Allen Iverson?” In this way he changed himself. Over the years, he has changed and become a leader. “If you’re getting older and not getting smarter, something is wrong,” said Iverson. On November 6, he was named the Eastern Conference Players of the Week . Now he has become many people’s idol. “I’ve become matured(成熟),” he said. “I’m trying to be a better person first, and then a better player.
