Remember when Andre Iguodala nearly joined the Rockets last summer?

Well actually -- Steve Kerr, Bob Myers and Draymond Green never really considered Houston a serious threat.

But that's not important right now.

What is important -- Kerr revealed something on the Lowe Post Podcast on Monday:

"Typical Andre -- he decided to play a joke on Bob and me. He got us on a conference call, told us he was gonna go to Sacramento.

"We wished him well, and he's like, 'I got you suckers. I'm coming back' ... that's probably the first time it's ever been told. But now that we've won a title and we got it all in our rearview mirror, that story can be told."

"I bought it for a few seconds but he gave it away quickly. He just started laughing .. it would have been shocking for him to leave this situation."

Andre being Andre.

Amazing stuff.
