Diaw officially opts in

[sananspursfan21]

Good..

We need him back now Pop needs to

PLAY HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And he needs to quit PASSING UP GREAT SHOTS!!!! i'm all for looking for the open man and i'm glad he's back, but shoot!!!! (literally)

[ElNono]

Good news. Thought he have the team a different dimension at times. Useful player to have.

[HemisfairArena]

Diaw is more valuable to this team than Manu and Diaw is only making 4 mil. If Manu gets a contract for more money than Diaw it would be an epic fail.

I know, I always yell at him on TV, but he never listens to me

[Mark in Austin]

Nice. Also, since he essentially now has a one year deal, there is incentive for him to stay in shape next year as well...

Diaw pisses me off because of his passiveness but he is a really vital part of our team and I'm glad he's returning, he adds a dimension to the post that we didn't have and his passing from that position especially on this team is deadly. He really needs to add a consistent three point shot to his game, he shoots at a decent clip, just needs to practice more. And he played good defense on LeBron at times and has shown the ability to guard bulkier players. Glad Diaw is coming back. I'm sure Bill Walton's happy too

[DMX7]

Good news. I wanted him back.

I know you're mad with Manu after the Finals (I am too), but NO and NO

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Great to have him back. He was great in key moments during the playoffs like game 1 goldenstate, game 4 vs Memphis and game 6 vs Miami till he was inexplicably pulled.

[CGD]

Awesome! Great bargain, fit, and person

[siraulo23]

Should have played more against he heat

Glad hes officially back

[-21-]

Great news.

[spursnatic]

Great news!!..Hopefully he will work out with Duncan over the summer and shed that extra weight.. And become the Diaw he was in Phoenix

[milkyway21]

this is GOOD news !

the more number of players who KNOW the Spurs system is a plus for me...

[milkyway21]

Duncan + Tony + Diaw + Kawhi + Green locked in

[dallasmaverickslose]

GREAT news IMO.

[AFBlue]

Boudini!

[Kidd K]

I don't know if the Spurs are "lucky" to be getting him for 4.7m, but I'm glad to have him back and think that's a reasonable price for what he brings.

If only he could take and make open shots consistently. Dude would be one of my favorite all time role players if he actually did that. Imagine if he shot like Bonner or Green, only still did everything else he does.

But don't let all that talk fool ya. . .I'm glad he's back. Definitely happy to see him stay.

[Marcus Bryant]

Good news. 1 yr, $4mil is a good price for his skill and fit in the rotation.

[NRHector]

Diaw spreads the floor better than Bonner

[PlayNando]

Per Woj:

@WojYahooNBA: As @SpearsNBAYahoo reports, Boris Diaw's opting back into the Spurs for $4.7M in '13-14. His agent, Doug Neustadt, says letter sent to team.

Say what you want but Im happy he did and its a fair value deal. I think if he gets in better shape could play 25mins/gm next yr...

More French intelligence on this team, which is good. The less gringo meatheads we have on this team, the better, tbh.

[justinandimcool]

Don't look now, but Diaw's last 5 tweets have been of him eating at 5 different restaurants, within the hour. Dude knows how to celebrate.

[hater]

he also opts in on a triple bacon cheese burger at 5 guys
