So you are saying Iguodala was better NBA player than,

Roy Tarpley
Dominique Wilkins
Byron Scott
Rolando Blackman
Reggie Theus
Thurl Bailey
Eddie Johnson
Nikola Pekovic
Rony Seikaly
Dino Radja
Peja Stojakovic
Ricky Pierce
Xavier McDonald.....

Sorry, but no.

James Donaldson
Mitchell Wiggins (Andrew's father)
Antonio Davis
Willie Anderson
P.J. Brown
Walter Berry

are also debatable.

These NBA players all played in Greek League. Not like Iguodala would ever be anything special or unique playing in Greece, like people here are trying to make it seem. With the lol at the thought of him even playing there comments.

Plenty of very good NBA players have played in Greek League.

Wait, Iggy isn't a better NBA player than Dino Radja? I appreciate some of your insight, but you are an idiot.

EDIT: And he's better than that entire list with the exception of Nique and Theus. And maybe Pekovic

All the guys making personal insults here will be going on my ignore list. Some of you made personal insults several times.

I am not here to be called an idiot, a troll, infamous, and all these other insulting personal attacks. If you don't have the maturity and manners to have a civil and polite debate and discussion about basketball, and can instead only be rude, childish, and immature, then you are going to be on an ignore list.

Simple as that.

Interbasket, I don't think you should take this so seriously. We all like basketball, and we all have an opinion.

Iggy would be awesome as a lockdown defense/hustle guy in fibaball, but he wouldn't be some dominant scorer. You see the international rules give a big overall boost to defense compared to the NBA (smaller court, no defensive 3 secs), handicap slashers and help shooters with the shorter 3-point line. This is the reason a good NBA scorer like Lawson struggled mightily playing in the Euroleague during the lockout and there are many other examples. This is the reason also Team USA just jacked a metric ton of three-pointers instead of trying to get to the rim (it worked great since they had the shooters). Someone like Iguodala who is not really a knockdown shooter would probably average less in Europe than in the NBA if you account for the shorter game also.

What if someone on your list wants to help you? Will that take them off of your list?

Calling me idiot, troll, and some here called me insane and certifiable. These types of comments are not opinions, they are rude and uncalled for personal attacks.

Childress was laughably terrible the whole time he was with Olympiacos. The team and the fans threw a celebration when they finally got him to leave.

When he played in away games, in almost every game the fans were laughing at how bad he was. The opposing teams did not even guard him. He was left wide open the whole game of every game.

He was one of the WORST players of Euroleague.
