Boris Diaw reported to be on the trading block

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

The Bobcats have made Boris Diaw available in a trade, according to beat writer Rick Bonnell.

Diaw's work habits and lethargic play on the floor have him in coach Paul Silas' doghouse. It's also the reason he's unlikely to attract much attention on the trade market. The rebuilding Bobcats won't take back a bad contract either, meaning Diaw will only be attractive to teams interested in his $9 million expiring contract. Bonnell suggests the Suns as a possible landing spot, but their front-court is already jammed. Diaw has come off the bench in two straight games, playing behind the likes of Tyrus Thomas, D.J. White and Derrick Brown.

Yeah it makes sense. He has the best trade value on our team that isn't part of our future.

We don't need to trade him for someone with a overpaid contract though. Rather just let him ride out his last year of his contract.

Tyrus could be next, as much as I like him though. He needs to find his mid range game quick.

Your Lakers are one of the potential teams that is listed that may take a shot at /or is interested in Boris Diaw.

The Hawks and Suns are the other two teams.

Doubt we can get anything back, but then again thats what we said about Mullens. I would be happy with a 2nd round pick just to get something for his lazy fat ass.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

I'd definitely trade him and tyrus thomas in a heartbeat.

[Dpantherman]

Can we trade him to Weight Watchers in exchange for Sir Charles?

Trade Boris Diaw for Walter Hermann

T-Time's contract is too bad to trade for value. 9 Million off the books is pretty decent trade incentive for any team close to the cap but no way we get any valuable return for Boris.

Maybe Cho could somehow package Boris, T-Time and Augustin for a role player and a first? DJ has been our best player this year but keeping both DJ and Kemba on the roster for future would be silly.

The more Kemba plays, the better he gets. He does make bone head (rookie) mistakes...but his upside, IMO, is much higher than DJ's. DJ might not have much more room to grow as a player.

That being said, the two quick guards are somewhat effective right now.
