The Sixers probably think he's perfect for them.

we do need to get younger. but iguodala is not the prudent way to do it.

paying a non-franchise player (even if he is still a very good player) franchise money is the quickest way to bury a team.

:lol Philly isn't going to let him walk. And given how well the Sixers are doing lately and their upside, I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to actually leave (unless of course he gets a great offer)

Oh Hedo Turk with a sprained wrist and Jameer Nelson with a jaw contusion (got hit invadvertently by Howard). Both questionable to return.

If anybody thinks he isn't returning to Philly, they're crazy. He's in a great position right now.

I don't trust guys who suddenly get good in the second half of a contract year.

He's been a good player since he came into the league.

Igodala's always was good, it was just hidden behind Iverson.

I see him a lot hanging out at Qdoba during my lunch breaks :)

Iggy is the definition of "borderline all-star" and I mean this positively.

Three issues that you have to account for:

1. Even if the Sixer management is open to him leaving, they are not dummies. They will simply not allow him to walk away without compensation. What would you be willing to give up in return?

2. Iguodala will be looking for "lead dog" money, even though he's not a lead dog. Spurs have little cap room to take on a contract that he'd be looking to obtain.

3. Sixers can offer him more money than other other "would-be" team. Athletes rarely, if ever, take less money simply just to change teams. Therefore, do not expect him to go anywhere.

Exactly.

I have a feeling he'll go with the highest bidder.

Lewis got $127 million so anything is possible

Too young. He needs another 6+ years before he's Spur material.

But seriously he'll want and get way too much money for what he is worth. The Spurs would probably hurt their future financial position if they were to shell out theat kind of money he is going to command in the off season. Look what Lewis got.

Nice talent but - Pass.

I didn't say he hasn't been, but look at the improvement the last two months and tell me it doesn't remind you of Erick Dampier his last year in Oakland.

Hold out for Durant in 2011!

Let's hope Austin left him with a good impression of south central Texas.

Ouch! Cold but accurate. Players that "explode' during the last year of their contract are suspect. Is it real and sustainable or ?

And that would be a good stat to dig up - the percentage of improvement in a players game during the final year of their expiring contract.

Find out if they got the big bucks then..........

Follow it up with their performace over the next couple of years. Measure if the player's performance continued to improve or fell back to their previous level prior to the "big" contract they were awarded.

Should be interesting.
