    Default Bonnell: Diaw is on the block

    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.

    I'm sure we all knew this, but interesting to see it in writing. Just for fun, what would you want from the Suns?

    Bonnell a day late and a dollar short as usual

    I'm also convinced he pulled the part about the Suns out of his ass too

    He absolutely did. Also, sorry for not checking the trade forum. I should have known this was already covered.

    Yet, he tweeted it a day ago thus making him only a dollar short. And working for the paper, that's entirely forgivable.

    Bonnell is much like Broussard in the sense that he is never the first to break anything and is typically waiting for Woj or Spears to breaks news before he reports anything. He's too wrapped up in his own column to put out anything of his own.

    I don't see us getting much for him, unless all they wont the expiring. Hopefully we just we can someone to take Diaw and TT from us.

    If you can get something valuable for Diaw, great. If not, then there's not a thing in the world wrong with just letting his $9 million salary come off the cap.

    We could package picks or other players to the Suns for Channing Frye or Lopez.
