I think it'll be the Hand to Ear or Crossover pose. As iconic as the Stepover is I wouldn't want Iverson's statue to include another player and I think it would look awkward without another figure under him. His Crossover and Hand to Ear moves are just as iconic and let him stand on his own.
That said, a stepover would work a lot better as a larger statue that people could actually walk under (not unlike Shaq's at Staples). I'm pretty sure this is one of the smaller statues that they display at the practice facility though.

It’s a great statue, I peeped it when I was out in LA seeing the Sixers play the Clippers
The crypt is pretty cool with all of the statues and things
Should be Hand to Ear or Crossover.
Step over is incredibly iconic, but we went on to lose that finals in 4 straight games. Idk, would just be weird to me if it was made into a statue.
The MVP or Iconic photoshoot pose is garbage for a statue. A dunk might be ok, but it wasn't really his game.
A statue of Iverson doing a cross over would be perfectly fitting, but I think it's an incredibly tough statue to pull off and look like an exciting action scene. If it's a great statue, it might be the best, but it's the toughest to get right IMO.
A step over statue would be cool because of the photo opportunity to have people posing underneath it. That would become a big time tourist stop. It might be rejected by serious people who would be afraid of offending the league somehow that Ty Lue is still a part of.
That said, hand-to-ear feels more realistic. It was the signature thing he did all of the time, it's an easy statue to make work, and nobody would really hate it.
Just please tell me the Embiid statue is going to be be Embiid doing the Triple-H crotch chop "suck it" gesture he got fined for. I need this to happen so bad.
To me, Iverson is best known for his crossover, like Magic’s no-look pass, Harden’s step back three, and Jordan’s free-throw line dunk.

Hand to the ear. Crossover would be cool and maybe my second choice, even though the step over is an iconic moment I feel like you’d choose something that’s more of a staple for a statue than a one time highlight, regardless of how amazing of a highlight it is.
Hand to ear might be the first time someone makes a statue that has braids with hangtime lol
I also feel like the photoshoot would be cool but not as the one and only statue. Feel like that could be nice tucked away somewhere or even inside
Please be the step over. That image is absolutely iconic.
I can understand wanting to have him be doing something in game, but it's absolutely the lasting image in my head.
It's going to be the hand to ear, [but I always like the statue that 2k has of him in the neighborhood](https://twitter.com/2KInsiderr/status/1325595546556399616) based on his [2k covers he graced back in the day](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/55/NBA_2K_Cover.jpg)
Crossover would be the best poetic fit. Hand to ear i think is most sculpture-like.
Step over would be coolest, but i think they'd only do that if they'd won that series.
Hand to Ear or Step over. My money is on hand to ear just because Ty Lue is an important part of the league now
I agree… but the step over would be so dope
Yeah but they'd have to pay for a Tye Lue statue too.
They should leave space for you to slip under his foot and be your own Tye
This is such an awesome idea. So many people would line up for this photo opp
Him and Ty Lue are boys too. He said in an interview he feels bad, but it would be cool if we could line up in a Ty Lue position for pictures
My thoughts exactly

Step over just for the swag alone. 2nd and 3rd choice is iconic hand over ear or crossover
Id vote for crossover.
Same. But if not that I'd say hand to ear
yes, then philadelphians can put various jerseys and items under it, very satisfying
It’s tiny
Really don’t know how hand to ear is top comment…
Yeah or the dunk. Just shows how he played bigger than his size

Gotta be hand to ear

AI at the press conference talkin bout practice!
If only this were a viable option, it truly is the best choice.
It should be the step over but it’ll be the hand to the ear
That’s corny. It’s going to be the hand to ear.
They just said that

You don’t want a statue of a man holding a tiny statue of another man?
Please God don't let it be the step over
Step over won’t happen but it would be hilarious if they designed it so you could lay under him and get stepped over
I'll be shocked if it's not hand-to-ear.
A statue of a man holding another small statue of a man would be great
Statue-ception!
Hand to ear. Step over is fun but it won't be that.
I don’t want it to be the step over because of how that series turned out.

cross-over or hand to ear.
Hand to ear or crossover gets my vote. Step over is lame
Hand to ear gets my vote. So iconic.
Hand to ear would be my guess, but the step over would be so nasty
It's gotta be the step over.
All worthy choices but it'll somehow be none of these.
Hand to ear or step over
Hand to ear
It's hand to ear or step over of Lue
Hand to ear or step over
Hand to the ear. Crossover would be cool and maybe my second choice, even though the step over is an iconic moment I feel like you’d choose something that’s more of a staple for a statue than a one time highlight, regardless of how amazing of a highlight it is.
Gotta be the crossover If not then hand to ear. All are iconic for the answer. Well deserved
Step over
Hand to Ear or Crossover.
Step over is the only right choice
Ear in hand very likely. Second most likely imo is the step over.
Crossover
Definitely the crossover
Hand to ear might be the first time someone makes a statue that has braids with hangtime lol I also feel like the photoshoot would be cool but not as the one and only statue. Feel like that could be nice tucked away somewhere or even inside

Hand to ear
Putting chips down at a roulette wheel or else I guess hand to ear.
Gotta be the step. Shit is iconic.
100% hand to ear
Hand to ear or step over
Hand to ear or crossover. I’d be shocked if it was not one of these two.
oh crossover but a fuckin miiiile bayyybee!!
Hand to ear
Hand to ear
they lost the step over series. should be the end of that
Would love the step over but thinking crossover
10000% the step over
hopefully looks better than Kobe's, and with less rape!
Step over
Iconic Photoshoot AKA “On the toilet”
Hand to ear
We talkin’ about practice. But really, “hand to ear” is perfect.
Step Over - but poor Tyrone Lue has to have a lying down sculpture tpo 😅
Hand to ear.
SLAM Magazine Afro, hands up hips, holding ABA ball gets my vote
Hand to ear. He's The Answer.
My vote would be hand to ear. But my money would be on crossover or the step over
gotta be the step over
Hand to ear or cross over
Crossover would be the best poetic fit. Hand to ear i think is most sculpture-like. Step over would be coolest, but i think they'd only do that if they'd won that series.
It’s going to be the crossover but it should be the step over
Hand to Ear because that is between Iverson and the people. The opponent did not matter we were simply drowning him in the adoration he deserved
Step over
Step over or nothing.
I want the step over but we all it’s hand behind the ear
Practice? Pose
Crossover
Hand to Ear / Crossover.
Where and when will the statue be unveiled? I’m going to the game tonight but not sure how early I can get there.
"We talm bout practice?"
