Considering the amount of $$$ Nets would have to take back in a sign and trade, they'd be stupid to s&t Diop for a 2nd round pick.

Nets might give him a decent offer, but if any team wants to sign and trade for him...I say knock yourselves out.
Basically hes big, he can rebound, he can take up space, and he can block about a shot every 11 or 12 minutes.
You really want to make a big deal out of that in a league where centers his size are few and far between?
And with Swift under contract for one more year, Josh Boone, Sean Williams, a lottery pick, the 21st overall pick, and the 40th overall pick. There really isn't a reason to bring Diop back. Thats not even counting Nenad Krstic, currently a free agent.
