书籍简介
这是一部引人入胜、坦诚的回忆录,出自NBA容易被误解的名人堂球员艾伦·艾弗森之手。书中详述了他在弗吉尼亚州的艰苦童年,如何以状元秀身份进入联盟,以及他备受争议、改变文化的职业篮球生涯。在《被误解》一书中,艾伦·艾弗森以敏锐的洞察力和感人的坦诚,讲述了他从弗吉尼亚州贫困儿童到高中冠军、乔治城大学传奇教练约翰·汤普森的得意门生,终成为NBA全明星球员和锐步篮球副总裁的历程。艾伦·艾弗森家喻户晓——婴儿潮一代和X世代见证了他数十年来在费城76人队作为一名斗志昂扬、顽强拼搏的篮球运动员的辉煌历程,他重新定义了篮球的风格(无论是在时尚方面还是在比赛方面);而千禧一代和Z世代或许更熟悉他的锐步系列的复兴、他在波兹·马龙的热门单曲《白艾弗森》中的亮相,以及他在电影《继承之战》中与肯达尔·罗伊儿子同名。
艾弗森既是运动传奇,又是时尚偶像,还是嘻哈缪斯,他是首批将生活方式、文化和体育融为一体的名人之一。然而,尽管他的名字家喻户晓,却很少有人了解艾弗森跌宕起伏的人生。《被误解》揭开了艾弗森跌宕起伏的人生帷幕,带你走进这位斗志昂扬、才华横溢、格格不入的球员的内心世界。他的首要目标,远胜于名利,始终是帮助家人和朋友摆脱贫困和暴力。
艾弗森在回忆录中讲述了他如何彻底打破了20世纪90年代和21世纪初NBA球星的固有模式,与此同时,他还要应对法律纠纷和个人创伤,而这些经历反而增强了他的个人主义和明星影响力。这是一个令人难忘的故事,讲述了一位开拓者不仅改变了篮球比赛,更改写了“崛起、跌倒、再崛起”的规则,同时始终坚持自我。
A compelling and candid memoir from Allen Iverson, the NBA’s most misunderstood Hall of Famer, detailing his tough childhood in Virginia, his entry into the league as the number one overall pick, and his controversial, culture-changing pro basketball career. In Misunderstood, Allen Iverson shares in searing clarity and touching candor his meteoric rise from impoverished child in the Virginia projects to high school champion to Georgetown University protégé of legendary coach John Thompson, and finally to NBA All-Star and Reebok’s Vice President of Basketball. Allen Iverson is a household name—Boomers and Gen Xers watched his decades-long run as a scrappy, tenacious basketball player on the Philadelphia 76ers who redefined the sport’s style (both fashion-wise and playing-wise), while millennials and Gen Zers are perhaps more familiar with his Reebok line’s resurgence in popularity, his callout in Post Malone’s viral hit “White Iverson,” and for being the namesake of Kendall Roy’s son on Succession.
Part athletic legend, part fashion icon, part hip-hop muse, Iverson was one of the first celebrities to fuse lifestyle, culture, and sports. But while everyone may know his name, few have seen behind the curtain on Iverson’s tumultuous life. Misunderstood lifts the veil and brings you into the mind of the pugnacious, ultra-talented misfit whose foremost goal, more than fame or fortune, was always to lift his family and friends out of poverty and violence.
In his memoir, Iverson explores how he completely shattered the mold dictating what an NBA star could be in the 1990s and 2000s, all while dealing with legal troubles and personal traumas that only contributed to his sense of individualism and star power. This is the unforgettable story of a trailblazer who not only changed the game of basketball but rewrote the rules of what it means to rise, fall, and rise again while staying unapologetically true to himself.

Allen Iverson played for fourteen seasons in the NBA, during which he was Rookie of the Year, MVP, and eleven-time All Star. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2016. In 2021, Iverson was selected to be part of the “NBA 75,” a group of the seventy-five most important players in the league’s first seventy-five years, thus cementing his status as one of the sport’s best players. Know equally for his aggressive, fast play style and groundbreaking integration of fashion and self-expression into sports, Iverson helped to usher in the age of hyper-individualistic sports personalities and shaped American culture in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Iverson has had a career-long partnership with Reebok, for whom he now serves as Vice President of Basketball.
