what is diaw's status?

[drclic]

o everyone,

i'm glad to see that Diaw start to impress NBA. I love this guy for years (i'm french so it was more easy for me ... :-) ).
I'm glad to see him try to attack the basket ... even if he still soft.

About his contrat ... yeah Phoenix allready took the 4 year option (same for Barbosa ) ... but they will talk about long term contract this summer. I don't think Boris seek for the best contract but for a good with the best team for him ... Unless Los Angeles and Phil Jackson (who seems to really apreciate our french Pippen) make a shot, Phoenix has a very good shot to sign him this summer for a respectable contract ...
I will be very surprised to see him take the risk to be free agent in 2007 instead of signing a good deal with Phoenix. (40 for 6 years is really good for me). It's just not that type of guy ...


So, my point is : don't overrated him after underatted him ... He still has to prove what he can do with Amare next to him and in a play-off configuration.
i'm afraid that he can lose minutes and he needs it because he lets the game come and never force .

Bye, and thanks for this great forum.

He should come play with Parker and Mahinmi. Get ready for the world cup and Olympics together.

Man, if there's any illustration of just how bad the Hawks are, Boris Diaw is it. I recognize that Nash is a of a player who makes all his teammates better, but no one is going to turn a scrub into a nightly triple-double threat. How could a team like Atlanta not have room for this guy? Props for D'Antoni for recognizing he had a of a talent there.
