Suns @ Kings Game Thread

The problem with using Diaw as a point-forward: he doesn't merit a double-team in the post.

IMHO, his natural position may be SF once he develops more confidence in his outside shot. Kinda like a Scottie Pippen - good defender, can pass well, athletic drives (!) - and just maybe a good outside game.

Besides, Barbosa's looking like a decent backup PG nowadays - albeit one that needs some seasoning.

Diaw shot 3-5 last game and from the highlights I saw he hit a turnaround 15ft jumper and another shot about 18-20ft out. I think his jumpshot and his confidence will get better as the season goes along.
