Didn't really answer my question.
Are you seriously not getting it or are you waiting for a definite answer so you can argue?

I just don't see guys leaving early to play in Europe is what I was getting at.

I already answered what I was getting at. Niang doesn't have a position in the NBA.
I'm sure Fred agrees with you...
Tell me his position.
I would guess he does. Fred knows the NBA as well as any college coach.
Yeah this comparison gets thrown around a lot but Diaw is a much better athlete. Deadspin had a good story about Diaw maxing out the Suns vertical leap measuring rack in flip flops when he first came over from the Hawks. I think it's going to be real hard for Niang to make it, but he's doing everything he can to give himself a chance so good for him.

Here's a scouting report on Diaw from the 2003 draft:
Strengths: According to telebasket.com, has outstanding athletic ability. He is reported to have excellent speed and quickness and is an aggressive offensive rebounder. The report also praises his large wingspan and quick feet. Recent scouting reports say he has improved his rebounding but still needs work on his perimeter shooting.

In an interview somewhere a month or two ago (can't remember who had it), Hoiberg indicated that they asked Niang to put weight on last year when they determined he was going to have to guard the other teams "5".
Point guard.
Yeah, I'm sure he does.
I already answered what I was getting at. Niang doesn't have a position in the NBA.
And now we have McKay (after Dec 20th), Edozie and the Greek kid to defend the 5. I'm sure that went into the equation.
So...the second option.
I'm hoping that we don't have to rely on the Greek or Endozie for more than 1-2 minutes in Big 12 play. Between Nadar, McKay, Niang and Hogue, hopefully we have the 4-5 position covered up pretty well.
Mine was a statement, not a question. I never questioned your stance on Georges at all, so who wants to argue?Are you really not getting it or are you just looking to argue?
His photo has already made it to CBS sports:

I'm sure Fred agrees with you...
