OAKLAND — The legs of a 32-year-old NBA player don't look much different on the outside than those of his younger counterparts. The inside often tells a different story about the effect of a long pro career.
Except where it concerns Andre Iguodala. Lately it has been hard to differentiate between Klay Thompson's bounce and that of the 11-year veteran swingman.Iguodala has gone from averaging 26.6 minutes per game in the regular season to 31.3 in the playoffs. As a starter in Golden State's do-or-die Game 7 against Oklahoma City, Iguodala logged a season-high 43 minutes and shut down Kevin Durant with his smothering defense.
