SJax is convinced he can find his form from 2007/2008 (and the GS-Dallas series) back

Alors, Stipheune, content d'être de retour ?

Stephen answering a French fan: "I can definitely get back to my level during the playoffs in 2007 when Golden State beat Dallas. I never had serious injuries during my career and never been through surgery. My body is great, I just need to be in game shape"

TP: "It was awesome to see Stephen again, he was one of my favorite players. We had much fun between Tim, Manu and I when we got all together again"

[ace3g]

He is still talking so if anyone can translate the interesting parts, that would be helpful

[Admidave50]

TP is honored to be in the MVP discussions and especially that Magic mentioned him. He was one of his favorite players and he checked by the video to be sure. But he knows that he won't win it.

He said also that he had chills when fans were screaming "MVP MVP" during the Magic game. He heard it many times before towards Tim and David, it was the first time for him.

From earlier:

S. Jackson ( @DaTrillStak5 ) on the #tpshow : "I can hit big shots, I can go out there and guard anybody. And I’ll try to bring leadership."

Parker declined to answer about Diaw and Turiaf and just said that he didn't know his situation. I wouldn't be surprised if someone in Spurs organization told him to keep it quiet after what he said lest week.

Looks like Diaw will be on the show today: see what he has to say:

Tony Parker Show, ce soir à 20h sur RMC, avec Boris Diaw, mon nouveau coéquipier à San Antonio, et Fabien Gilot, qualifié en natation sur 100m aux JO de Londres !!! A tout à l'heure !!!

[Bruno]

So, the Diaw interview was short because he had to leave for a massage. It was fun to hear because Boris and Tony are great friends but there were noting new said. Diaw said again that Pop wanted him to play some good defenses, set screens and share the ball. Spurs like his versatility.

Turiaf was also part of the show. Parker said that Spurs wanted him and that Pop asked him to call him. Boston was also very interested. Turiaf picked Miami because he wanted to be in a great team where he could get playing time. It's too close to his home and family.

So Spurs wanted Diaw and Turiaf? Or they wanted Turiaf and settled for Diaw? I would take Diaw and Turiaf over Bonner and Blair.

Awesome story, you got the money to pay the lux tax hit?

They wanted both. Spurs wanted Diaw before Turiaf was traded and waived.

[timvp]

Is there a French player the Spurs don't love? Parker, Batum, Diaw, Turiaf, De Colo, Mahinmi, Flo Pietrus, Diawara, Gelabale ... Spurs have been connected one way or another to just about every attainable French basketball player.

It's not a bad idea ... as long as they never sign Petro or Mike Pietrus

[MaNu4Tres]

Turiaf looking good so far with the Heat. Even hit a mid-range jumper with great form.

[Ice009]

They wanted both. Spurs wanted Diaw before Turiaf was traded and waived.

Crazy. I asked for both in the Turiaf thread. I wanted both too. Funny that the Spurs wanted the exact same thing. Did Turiaf talk to Pop or did he not even call him back?

not sure if you guys have seen this but 48MOH did a few articles on if Boris Diaw is a good fit for the Spurs compared to others available:
