Based purely on talent: #1-Iverson #2-Allen #3-Arenas
Allen Iverson has an incredible game for only being six feet tall and has incredible toughness to be able to get beat up by big guys every night when he drives to the basket and still keep playing strong. Ray Allen is an incredible shooter though, but he is just surrounded by a terrible team. Gilbert Arenas has some nice teammates in Caron Butler and Antwan Jamison, and he can light it up at times.
Statistically, all three score lots of points, Allen and Arenas nail lots of threes, but Iverson's assists give him the edge. Overall, based purely on talent, I would have to say that Iverson has the edge over the other two. By the way, his nickname is "The Answer."

Iverson is the best individual player HANDS DOWN but if you want a Team Player, I suggest you get Gilbert Arenas, cause he is downright passionate about winning and willing to get it (though the botched free throws against Cleveland questioned this). The knock on ray allen is he doesn't play D, he needs a shotblocker to protect his back. AI plays the passing lanes and Gilbert (when motivated) plays decent straight-up D. All of these guys can burn you in scoring but when it comes to the easiest to play with, it's Gilbert cause Iverson's really good and all but don't expect to get the ball cause he handles and shoots it most of the time (unless double teamed). Also when it comes to work ethic, nobody is better at being a gym rat than Gilbert. He gives a good example for teammates. Iverson is so blessed and talented he doesn't think its necessary to come on time every practice. (and he started lifting weights only on the latter part of his career).

Gilbert Arenas guys... 4th in the NBA in scoring this year. Iverson was second but he didn't put up the wins Arenas and the Wizards did. If you watched the playoff series with the Cavaliers and the Wizards you would agree. He and LeBron had battles in those games that were amazing, and in game 6, he hit a 40 foot shot to tie and send the game to OT (only to lose to the greatness of LeBron James). Iverson would be close, but I would definately say Arenas. He amazes me.

Although Iverson is past his prime he is still superior to arenas and allen. He has lead his team to the NBA finals and is an incredible scorer. Arguably when he has 50 point games it is a greater feat then chamberlains 100 becuase Wilt had such a height advantage. But if i was to pick one of the three as my franchise player i would chose arenas becuase he led the sub par wizards into the playoffs.

I think it is Ray allen because he is a leader and iverson is getting old and is having problems. Arenas is a good player to but he need a little more improvement and he will be the best. But right it is Ray, Ray!!!
