Andre Iguodala of the Philadelphia Sixers is not a scoring machine. He is not a rebounding monster. He is not an assist man extraordinaire. But he does all three at such a high level that one could make the mistake of thinking that those are what sets him apart from the ordinary NBA player.No, people. Andre Iguodala is special because he plays defense. Tough defense. Intelligent defense. Relentless defense. Take a look back at the summer USA Basketball had. Durant may be the star of Team USA but Iguodala was always the one taking on the other team's star.
If you need proof, here's a chart the good people at libertyballers.com put up. This was actually done by Brian Ward and it gives you a good sampling of the defensive damage Iguodala inflicts on NBA stars.
