    Is it just me, or was Andre alot more fun to watch his rookie year? He seemed to be better, while not scoring as many points, and he seemed to defend better, anyone else kind of noticed that after the majority of this season?

    I think Iggy played with much more heart last year, thats why so many people caught his attention. But I`m with you PD, he played with so much more last year.

    Or the fact that he never gets the ball [​IMG]

    I said this before, he is capable of so much more but he will be in AI's shadow......He has a Darko Milicic attitude w/ the Pistons. They don't need me so I am just gonna lay back.

    I don't think AI is the only problem "holding Iguodala back," rather a lot of it also has to do with Webber, the coaches and Iguodala himself.

    Iverson has been trying to get Iggy to be more aggressive all season long. Webber, contrary to what he says publicly (i.e. "I want the ball to make plays for everybody else") only looks to score when he gets the ball. He was supposed to be the player who would make plays for Iggy and Korver from the high post.

    The coaches sometimes just tell Iggy to go defend, and let the other guys take care of the offensive side of the floor.

    Iguodala also lacks aggressiveness most of the time, and that is on him and him alone. Look what happened after the ASB. Everytime he touched the ball, he attacked the rim, and either scored or dished it off for the open shot. That opened up his jumper, and the entire offense for the Sixers as a team.
