I would choose Mickael Pietrus. IMO, he is a better multi-purpose highly functional Wing player than Iguodala ... even as good as he is. Pietrus can defend, board, play different positions, shoot the 3, slash to the rim with strength, and has a terrific disposition. At his size, given his age, with his skill set and athleticism, he is only going to get better over the next few years. Raps Fan,

If choosing strictly between Pietrus and Iguodala … as basketball players … I would choose Mickael Pietrus.

IMO, he is a better multi-purpose highly functional Wing player than Iguodala … even as good as he is.

Pietrus can defend, board, play different positions, shoot the 3, slash to the rim with strength, and has a terrific disposition.

At his size, given his age, with his skill set and athleticism, he is only going to get better over the next few years.

In fact, I was pleading for the Raptors to sign Pietrus last June: http://www.raptorstalk.com/2008/06/27/give-me-a-three-or-give-me-death/ I think Pietrus would have been a better fit given his contract status. Obviously I'd rather have Iggy, but I think there is a cap issue to consider as well. 100% agree. In fact, I was pleading for the Raptors to sign Pietrus last June:

I think Pietrus would have been a better fit given his contract status. Obviously I’d rather have Iggy, but I think there is a cap issue to consider as well.
