“I didn’t build Reebok all by myself,” said O’Neal, who won three straight NBA titles with the Los Angeles Lakers and another with the Miami Heat. He signed with Reebok in 1992 and made the brand popular with his first signature shoe, called the Shaq Attaq.Iverson’s signature shoes, The Question and The Answer, were some of the top sellers in the industry. He signed a lifetime endorsement and marketing contract with Reebok in 2001.

“I needed A.I. to be vice president because if you’re a guard, you want to see a legendary guard,” he said. “I wanted to do a show that’s not scripted. Not polished. I wanted it to be real work.”Iverson called documenting his role in helping revitalize Reebok a “full circle moment” while working alongside O’Neal, who he calls “big bro.”“I get the honor of doing this with (Shaq), having a relationship with him,” said Iverson, the former Philadelphia 76ers guard, who was an 11-time All-Star and won the league’s MVP in 2001 — the same year O’Neal and Iverson faced off in the NBA Finals. Iverson was known for being an undersized guard who played with a supersized heart.

“The type of things I learn from him — on and off the court. He’s just a beautiful guy,” Iverson said about O’Neal. “He stands up to his faults. The things that he felt he did wrong in life. The way he treats his mom. All that resembles who I am. That makes this special.”Reebok, founded in 1895, became a household name in the early 1990s, thanks to Boston Celtics guard Dee Brown and his iconic Pump sneakers. The brand took off from there inking major deals with O’Neal and Iverson, partnering with the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB, and even stepping into hip-hop with signature lines for Jay-Z and 50 Cent’s G-Unit.

But Reebok’s cultural momentum began to fade after Nike doubled down on star power with

. Adidas bought the company for $3.8 billion in 2006, aiming to better compete with Nike on a global scale.Since then, those games are rare.

Out of the last 73 NBA Finals games, starting with the 2012 Heat-Thunder matchup through last season’s Boston-Dallas series, the average margin of victory has been 12.4 points per game.There hasn’t been an instance of more than three consecutive single-digit finals winning margins in that stretch, and 45 of the 73 games have been decided by at least 10 points.

And there have been only six games in the last 12 finals decided by three points or less — while 10 have been decided by 20 points or more.There hasn’t been an overtime game in the NBA Finals since Game 1 of the 2018 series between Golden State and Cleveland.
