Andre Iguodala Opting Out

[ManUp]

I think Golden state would be the best fit for him. They are full of shooters and he's best when used as a point-forward. He's not really a scorer as much as he is a facilitator. Green is younger and cheaper, but I think Iggy is the better player.

Just looked at Jeff green's stats as a starter.... better than I thought. 22 ppg, 53% shooting, 53% from 3, 6 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 1.8 blocks !!

Yep, and he's a very good defender. I would rather have Green than Iggy going forward, even if the price was the same. Green is a better shooter who can create his own shot and get to the basket consistently. Iggy is a better defender, but Green is not far behind.

No way on Earth is Green's defense "not far behind" from Iggy's defense. Iggy is a literal lock down defender and someone I'd take over Bradley at this point of their careers. Green is a good defender, but Iggy is other worldly. I am upset he doesn't receive the recognition he deserves (should've made an all-nba defensive team over Rondo or Kobe at the very least).

You'd might as well compare Green's defense to Bruce Bowen's.
