    Diaw 24 years old, 6'8" 215 pounds, 13/7/6 a game - Plays good defense but plays with the Suns which inflates his numbers. Deng 21 years old, 6'9" 220 pounds, 14/6/2 a game - Very good young player.

    i'll take Luol. He's a better defender, better scorer. both are solid rebounders, Boris is a better passer, Luol is younger. definitely luol.

    Ill take Luol too. Although I love Boris. Boris is a great passer, rebounder and defender but Luol is only 20 and already so talented offensively. He can go inside, he can go outside and he is a great defender. A future 22+ ppg guy as well. I cant look past that.

    Deng as well because he's younger, better scorer and defensive player. Boris is a good player, but like you said plays with the Suns and Nash which gets him better stats.

    Right now Diaw is better, but yeah Luol is still young and has already shown a ton of talent. For the future i would take luol.

He would never get 6apg in any other offense.

    Diaw, becuase I think he's a Lamar Odom Jr., where he can play any position and not have problems. Luol creates havoc on D, and he'll be great in the near future.

    Diaw, because of the way he played against the Lakers in the playoffs.

    I think you guys are nuts [​IMG] I'd take Boris any day of the week. Luol is too inconsistant and can't rebound or pass as well as Diaw, and isn't near as versitaile.
