Nothing Gets Past Andre Iguodala

Andre Iguodala's position with the Golden State Warriors is listed as forward. It should be gatekeeper.

Whether flipping off a TV camera, instructing restaurant wait staff to allow Steph Curry to eat in peace, managing the relentlessly sky-high expectations of Warriors fans (and owner Joe Lacob), encouraging DeMarcus Cousins to be himself (no, really) or explaining the foolishness in thinking the Warriors are better without Kevin Durant, Iguodala considers it his duty to protect the Warriors' oh-so-special chemistry from any and all forces that threaten it.

Now, near the end of his 15th season, it is the mental energy required to keep those intruders at bay more than his 35-year-old legs that have him contemplating retirement.
