ChosenOne Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 e Cavaliers might not ever get a player like LeBron James again in our lifetime. But they might be able to acquire “LeBron Lite.” League sources indicate the Philadelphia 76ers are attempting to trade guard/forward Andre Iguodala. There is no active dialogue between the Sixers and Cavs right now, but a source said it was one to keep your eye on. Things could heat up toward the trade deadline. He would fit nicely into the Cavs’ $14.5 million trade exception. But there’s one big problem: Iguodala’s massive contract. He’s making $12.3 million this season, $13.5 million next year, $14.7 million in 2012-13 and $15.9 million in 2013-14. That alone would be enough to make him untouchable for many teams, including possibly the Cavs, who have stressed flexibility throughout this entire process. However, with a team that has no star power like the Cavs, they could be open to trading for him. There are many things to like about him: He defends, can create his own shot and has taken his team to the postseason. The 6-foot-6, 207-pound Iguodala would fit in well in Coach Byron Scott’s Princeton offense. Read More - Morning Journal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest STL10 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 He is basically a poor man's LeBron. He's a good passer, scorer, defender, shooter, and super athletic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted December 7, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Well, if they are looking for someone that resembles James in the face, Iggy is the closest. http://ambasketball.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/PicImg_76ers_vs_Magic_c851.jpg Cover up his eyes. If his eyes weren't so slanted, it would be LeBron in that picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 I don't see Philly dumping him for just cap space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exception would be used in the deal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
