Diaw traded to Utah

[SAGirl]

Diaw was one of my favorites. Those 2012-14 Spurs were all damn good, and he was a big part of it then. He peaked in Game 6 against OKC then and then in the Finals. Helped bring us a ring. For that I'll always be a Bobo fan.

Last two years not so good, but that happens. If Boris had a motor and was motivated all the time he'd be a HOFer. He is who he is. Best to him.

He really was that skillful IMO. If he had the consistency of his best moments/years throughout all of his career yea. It is said that what actually makes the HoF players is how they show up night after night in relentless fashion and how consistent they are. Boris wasn't that.

i wonder if his weight is gonna balloon.

Truth.

So you really wanted to go into last year with just Duncan, Aldridge and Bonner under contract at C/PF (remember that the West signing was after LMA's ... as was Boban's if I remember correctly)?

CoJo was the third PG after Patty resigned and was going to be expensive to keep. Yes, he had a good year in Toronto and would be nice to have now, but hindsight is always 20/20.

Diaw was already one year in retirement with the way he was playing that season, they should absoluty trade him last year and go from there... Pop never know who to keep and who to let go, he is always wrong or late in those disicions.

I wish PATFO has salary dumped somebody else (some Canadian guy comes to mind). Boris can still play and it's a shame we got nothing in return, not even a draft pick. Sad.

They got a guy who was picked early in the second round a year ago back in return.

Also, there are no Canadians on the Spurs roster as far as i know.

Closest is Hanlan.

Lol. No. Only a french idiot would believe that.

ya because we win dat game 6 against okc without him mexican idiot

[DeRozan m8]

Where Anderson looks to be better though is in perimeter play. He is currently looking like an improved 3 point shooter whereas current Diaw passed up perimeter shots all the time and hadn't made a 3 in months. Kyle is a better jumpshooter and probably better with the basketball, and a very unselfish player

You just have to be Kyle

[spurspokesman]

Thanks for all the good years bobo. Glad he won a chip with our spurs

Lmfao. French fans are such sensitive delusional idiots. Yeah, we'd be one ring short without a fat frenchman. Crofl. What an idiotic statement. He's a ROLE player, not a star. He's not Timmy, Manu or even Parker. Gtfo with that weak .

watch the game mexican trash... you don't pass OKC without him, like it or not... it is what it is

Horry was also a role player, a bunch of role players have been key for a team to win a ring, dirty mother er

Nah nah nah

The Spurs traded their 2022 second-rounder to make this happen. I hope they have plans for Hanlan, then. I hate the idea of losing picks that far in advance.

The 2012 second rounder is a 13 year old kid who will be fortunate to last 2 years in the d-league

I'm going to miss Boris Diaw! One of my favorites! We don't beat GSW without him! They had no answer for him, such a shame! Manu and Mills are losing their crew! Splitter and Boris gone!

[kobyz]

He disrespect all of the fans with his super unprofessionalism, of course spurs fans are the most soft in the world so they let it go...

RealGM has the Spurs giving the pick. They are actually pretty reliable, but if it's the other way, I actually like the trade a lot better than before.

[raybies]

Yah if we got Hanlan and a future second then that's pretty good considering it was a salary cap move.

[loveforthegame]

Official release.

I will miss THAT Boris you mentioned above from 13, the 2014 one too He was really big in several series for the Spurs and a walking mismatch.
