Allen Iverson wants to get into the Hall of Fame.
But "The Answer" doesn't desire to be enshrined in Springfield, Mass. purely for his own benefit. He wants to do it for all those who stuck with him through the thick and thin of his 14-year career. That's what he told Sway Calloway during an interview on "Sway in the Morning" during all-star weekend in Toronto.

"It's a tribute to people like you, people like Heather B. (Sway's co-host), the people that supported me," said Iverson at Reebok, event commemorating the 20th anniversary of the release of his signature "The Question:" sneakers.
"The people that helped me get to that point—my family, my friends, my teammates, my coaches, everybody—the people that helped me. I couldn't have done this without the people that helped me get there. It's a tribute to them."
Iverson continued: "If it happens, I'll be happy for everybody else that helped me get there like my fans, the ones that stayed on deck, the ones that never wavered, the ones that was always there for me though the ups and downs, my mistakes, my faults, me being a human being. Those people that never left, it's a tribute to them, and I can't wait for them to have that feeling and have that moment."
