In his weekly chat, Chris Sheridan writes the Nets are "peddling guys like Simmons, Najera, Boone and Battie" but that wouldn't be enough to pry Boris Diaw from the Bobcats. He adds the Nets won't be "dangling any of its young keepers on rookie contracts (T.Williams, CDR) until the sale to Prokorov is or isn't approved." Diaw is owed $9 million next year, more than a third of the Nets' cap space. Seems odd.
