Sam Amick @sam_amick
All this talk about Steph Curry’s lack of a Finals MVP trophy got me wondering: Does Andre Iguodala think we made a mistake when we voted for him in 2015?

Andre Iguodala on mentorship: “Part of being a great player is not how you play, but how you help others play to the best ability.” – 3:55 PM
Jay King @ByJayKing
Andre Iguodala said he’s enjoying this matchup because the series has two high-level teams that play the right way with a lot of skill. – 3:53 PM

The best thing for Jordan Poole: He’s with Andre Iguodala always during Warriors practice – 3:31 PM

Sunday notes on a Saturday: It is time for Tyler Herro to spread his Heat wings? The butterfly effect could be significant with a Herro move into starting lineup. sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-h… Plus: Draymond on Strus; Burr on The Fix; Andre Iguodala; Tyler Johnson; Chris Silva; more. – 9:02 AM

After each player missed time during the playoffs due to injury, Gary Payton II, Andre Iguodala and Otto Porter Jr. were full participants in a light practice on Tuesday before the NBA Finals. warriorswire.usatoday.com/2022/05/31/gar… – 1:11 AM
Rick Noland @RickNoland
If I’m @Golden State Warriors , I don’t change much. I stress, when up 12-15 late in 3rd, not to rely on offense and to continue to play D. When ahead that way, I also don’t put Draymond at C and Iguodala at PF. That’s all. Still win in 6! – 12:39 AM
Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Draymond Green asked why he is relaxed in this situation down 1-0: “It’s nothing to panic about. It’s the first team to win four games… I think that is where the confidence comes from.” Draymond adds it’s on him to play better after Iguodala and Porter did their part. – 12:00 AM

Andre Iguodala coming for that Steph Finals MVP. – 10:57 PM
Brad Townsend @townbrad
Warriors finishing off Mavs in 5, giving Porter and Iguodala and maybe Payton extra time to heal before the Finals, is paying dividends. Porter has 12 points, Iguodala 5 — on a combined 6-of-7 shooting. – 10:57 PM
Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Iggy hit a 3PT and Steph has only made 10… that MVP race tightening up – 10:54 PM
