Allen/Sefolosha both similar level perimete defenders getting paid less. Bogut and Green have a bigger impact on this GS defense than Iggy and they've both played more games. Lets see how much he helps them against the Clippers in the playoffs.
1. Lets say I accept that premise (I don't, its absurd.)
Tony Allen is a complete non shooter, can't run the pick and roll, and turns it over constantly despite rarely touching the ball.
I won't even dignify Thabo Sefalosha with a response
2. Andre is significantly better than both on defense, let alone on offense.
ESPN's plus minus has him as the the 4th most impacful defender in the league.
Englemens adjusted plus minus has him as the 3rd.
Andre is a special special defender, not just some run of the mill good wing role player.
Its a combination of skills that you won't find easily for 12 million and he is complatley comparable to.

all these guys make in the same range, he is just as good as these guys or better.
