Allen Iverson this week began shooting a major ad campaign for Reebok that'll hit the prints and air in November. The former Bethel High School standout will pitch his second signature b-ball shoe, The Answer, retailing for $120. The '76ers star's run-in with the law on pot and weapons charges seems not to have harmed his image. Indeed, may have enhanced it. Noted Nova Lanktree of Sports Celebrity Network: ``Ten years ago, this would have been the end of his endorsement career. Today, bad behavior is rewarded.''
