The greats in NBA history all have a tendency to get on their teammates in practice to get better. While Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson is not the guy to really enjoy practice, he did get on a young Lou Williams in a video that has surfaced across Twitter from practice with the two.
The video is an exchange between the two after it appeared that Williams was talking some smack after he scored a bucket Iverson by responding by saying that it wasn’t a real game so it didn’t matter. He then told him that he’s never seen him score a bucket in a real game. He then finished it by saying “go get taught”.
"Go get taught."

Williams is now known as the best 6th Man in NBA history, but he started his career slowly scoring just 1.9 points per game as a rookie and then 4.3 points per game as a sophomore. He then got more opportunity after Iverson was traded to the Denver Nuggets in his second season and he has scored in double figures ever since.
Who knew Iverson could be such a positive impact in practice? [lawrence-related id=29711,29688,29701]
