Interesting out of Suns Camp...Diaw to start over James Jones

http://aol.nba.com/suns/news/tribune_051109.html

I personally am not with D'Antoni on this move. He's acting in haste after 4 games (which we should have won ALL of them; L's by 3 and 1 point) and trying to make up for the loss of Stoudemire, which is impossible. No player is like him. And after 4 games you can't judge a team.

On a positive note (for me anyway), it doesn't seem like this will last long because D'Antoni said "...If we come back to it, we come back. No big deal."

Now I haven't had much to complain about with Mike, he was great last year and I think will do good with this group...BUT James Jones is better than he has played. Hes a scorer, and needs a CHANCE Mike...4 games is NOT enough time to showcase his talents. Hopefully this is a ONE game deal otherwise I might be more irritated. I really like James Jones, hes got confidence to shoot the 3-ball and he can actually hit it from downtown. Diaw's a nice player but hes been doing fine off the bench.
