Sixers' Iguodala hampered by Achilles

Share

While the Bulls are going to have to try to find a way to win this opening round playoff series without the services of possibly their two most important players, the Sixers have seen one of their MVPs hampered by injury.

Andre Iguodala, a strong veteran presence on a relatively young and inexperienced Philly team, has an injured Achilles tendon in his right leg and it is affecting his play on the court.

Sixers coach Doug Collins said Iguodala is playing on one foot.

Hes pretty much right, Iguodala agreed. Its hard to get up on your toes and youre pretty much shooting flat footed. Overall, I can think the game. The Achilles takes away from my athletic ability, but it doesnt take from my game.

Iguodala has still played fantastic defense on Luol Deng and had a big impact on a series that is now tilting heavily in the Sixers' favor.
