Andre Iguodala changed his eating habits and he added boxing to his workout regiment. As a result, a brand new 215-pound Iguodala arrived last Friday.

“I haven’t missed any practice time,” Iguodala said. “I have been going through scrimmages without asking for a sub. I feel lighter. I am 10 pounds lighter than last year, which takes added pressure off my knees so it feels good.”

It also feels good to know what coach Doug Collins wants from him. A year ago, there was a feeling-out process.

“Just be aggressive, not settling on any one thing,” Iguodala said. “Obviously, on the fast break pushing it up. I think Jrue (Holiday) and I do a good job of kicking it ahead. When he kicks it ahead to me I can make a play and when I kick it he can, so as long as I am being aggressive, making plays and getting to the foul line I feel like I am putting the team in a good position.”
