I wouldn't give up much more than that to get Iguodala.

No I understand - remember, I was the one saying to get a deal like this done it would take X and most people were saying that was way too much to give up. I just think that given their start and his number decline that they may just be ready to move on so it could be perfect timing for us to get a great talent on the cheap. His contract is big and a lot of teams will pass because of that alone. I don't think it is highly likely that this is all it takes, but I have severely loosened my stance on what it would take from where I was in the offseason. I think a change of scenery would do him so very well too. He would be a perfect fit for us for so many reasons (again, not to be discussed again - see the other 3-4 threads where I went into details on it).
Bottom line, his value dropped. Did it drop this much? I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Philly only get back this in return for him.
