I can NEVER see a scenario where both Iggy and Diaw are playing well but Iggy advances past our expectations turning into Scottie Pippen for the Suns.

I actually like Iguodala, but I'd have to at least consider such a deal

I think both players are just products of the Phoenix system and steve nash. Diaw had one good year in Phoenix and that is about it. Barbosa is a really nice spark off the bench.

No point in getting Barbosa since we already got Louis Williams. They do essentially the same thing.

Diaw is not that good of a player. He can have decent games here and there, but is very inconsistent. He's had one good season and has sucked ever since.

very good point. Always easy to forget how bogus the rumors are from NY.
