I dont know what Diop's problem has been, but I would like the idea of having him for a year to work with Herb/Aguire

what interests me is

"runs the floor like a sf"
"only been playing competative ball for a few years" entre aquire and co.
"best asset is defence"

he is not the answer right now but he could be with help and some time. we all thought nazr was just a bandaid for our C spot, but he is the least of our worries.

a good defensive shot blocking center helps everyone on team D. allan houston was a better dfensive player just from having ewing in the paint.

i say we try for him, even if we have to take wagner. dont forget i think wagner and diop were both top 10 picks. doesnt guarentee anything but hey........

that was my thinking... that he wasnt bad because of work ethic, rather experience
