Spurs Sign Boris Diaw

[Mr. Body]

Bump-
Was this the best in-season signing...along with Patty Mills...in Spurs history?

Two seasons later, RC = Exec of the Year and Pop = Coach of the Year

Probably better than Mills. I liked it at the time but never thought he'd be this good in this system.

That 3rd week in March, 2012 was the best, in my book. Those in-season moves by the Spurs' FO:
Move Richard Jefferson & a draft pick (Festus Ezeli - 30th pick) for Captain Jack
Sign Boris Diaw
Agree-to & Sign Patty Mills (actual contract signing had to wait 1 week until March 29 for work visa to clear)

Since then, the Spurs have been to 3 straight WCF and 2 straight Finals.

We'd have been going for a B2B had we held onto SJax too, tbh..

I liked bringing SJax back, even though that didn't really work out for the team in the end, and since Diaw's signing he's become an absolutely integral part of the System. Other solid mid-season signings of note were Glenn Robinson and Nazr Mohammed, neither of whom had the long-lasting impact of Diaw but were pretty essential to the 2005 run. Can't speak to "history" but in my lifetime, at least, he's been the most significant in-season signing.

Manu (SF)
Diaw

thats some small ball right there

funny that this line up is being used on a regular or at least variation of it, we are seeing a lot of parker+mills pairing

Nah, signing Granger this year was better.
