On last night's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon program, Iguodala stood up for the American taxpayers by depicting President Barack Obama, the leader of the free world, in a docudrama of sorts in which Iguodala/Obama sent a message to the American car makers in Detroit.
Iguodala might have more lifting to do with the Sixers if Thaddeus Young's sprained ankle turns out to be a bad one.
