ESPN - Sources: Iguodala agrees to six-year, $80 million deal with Sixers - NBA

The Philadelphia 76ers and restricted free agent Andre Iguodala have agreed to a six-year, $80 million contract, league sources tell ESPN.com.

The athletic and exciting 6-6 forward/guard has improved his scoring average in each of his first four seasons, and promises to be a mainstay on a Sixers team that recently signed former Clippers big man Elton Brand to an estimated $82 million free-agent contract.

Some say 80 mil is way to much for this 24yr old underachiever. I'm on the fence with this one since he was consistent just mentally somewhere else. He doesn't look focused or hungry. Right now he's relying on his physical abilities. Next season maybe he'll be better with Elton Brand on the floor too. I still think we need a stronger Center. Dalembert has improved but who's there to back him up?

Averaging 25.6 points and 6.4 rebounds a game means he can go anywhere, but hopefully he receives an education too...

Am I dreaming??? Elton Brand and the sixers have a verbal agreement? Not since Charles Barkley have we had a legitimate power forward who can score and rebound!!!

Good for him. Why didn't he do that before the Sixers picked him up?????
