Here is a portion of the column:

Thorn should explore trading anybody and everybody. That includes Holiday and Turner. Consider every option and make the trade that is best for the Sixers.

The odds are it'll be Iguodala going elsewhere. While he's a terrific defensive player — one of the best wing defenders in the NBA — and would be difficult to replace at that end, Iguodala remains a No. 3 option best suited to playing with an offensive star.

Iguodala's poor foul shooting — his inexplicable free-throw percentage of 61.8 is the lowest of his eight-year pro career and 25 percent worse than in 2006-07 (82 percent) — seems to have made him hesitant to drive in the fourth quarter of a competitive game. He's almost an automatic 1-for-2 at the line.
