E-mail is a wonderful thing. Responses to questions can be ever so brief, so concise.The question to 76ers president/general manager Eddie Stefanski was: Could he confirm the ESPN.com report that guard/forward Andre Iguodala, a restricted free agent, had agreed to the terms of a 6-year, $80 million contract."Nothing to report from our side,'' Stefanski replied.That was it. All of it.Later, in Los Angeles on vacation, he was interviewed by Tom McCarthy, of the Phillies' broadcast team, during the Phils-Dodgers game.When asked about Iguodala, he said, "Right now we're still negotiating. I hope it comes to fruition, but there's no deal yet.''

what no story about him considering overseas offers??

Deng signed a fat contract. Andre should get the same or higher. He is more athletic w/ better defense and offense.

August 13, 2008  08:47 AM ET

He didn't agree to a contract yet? **** ESPN?

Wake me up when he signs.

I love the photo of him throwing it down on Shaq.

The question is: Why did ESPN broke the story yesterday? Smh

this guy doesnt deserve 60 million let alone 80. he is a good solid player but he can not carry a nba team. he is a poor poor mans...scottie pippen. he doesnt have the scoring or playmaking ability that you need from a star player

Andre Iguodala is one of the most overrated players I've ever seen. I'm suprised he wasn't considered the next Jordan, since the media likes to create a hype around any player who can shoot the ball 30 times a game (e.g.: Kobe, Grant Hill, TMac, LeBron).

The 76er's to close the deal with Andre I. will have to pay him Euoros or Francs or Yen or Rubbles - but no US currency !!!

aw man... come on just sign with the sixers.... we want u back...and get it over with cause im getting nervous everytime i hear news about him

August 13, 2008  12:16 PM ET

hes an above average player with and above average lisp with an above average smackdown on shaq

August 13, 2008  12:29 PM ET

He's a great dunker, with a decent jump shot, and great defense.

August 13, 2008  02:11 PM ET

Andre Igoudala is one of the most exciting players to watch and could be the sixers next "Dr. J". He is a excellant athlete who plays exceptional defense every game. I also hope that he resigns w/the sixers as I am a huge sixer fan and think that we can have a very exciting season w/Dre, and the incredible offseason aquistions (shooters). Andre should have his best year as a sixer. Especially now that he has a hoss down low like Brand who commands a double,

August 13, 2008  02:13 PM ET

Andre should get traded to another team because the sixers arent doing anything anytime soon

Sorry guys I just reported it to create some sensation. Nothing was happenning in the NBA, and I got tired of Manny's and Farve's stories
