08:10 AM ET 03.27 | French forward Boris Diaw believes he's with a winner in San Antonio, a move he says has more to do with the team than countryman Tony Parker. Q: Where are you currently living? A: I'm sleeping on Tony's couch for the moment. Like Jeremy Lin! (laughs). We made a deal: I can sleep at his house but I have to pay for all of our meals. Q: Would you have signed with the Spurs if Tony wasn't playing there? Yes of course. I chose San Antonio because of the entire team not because I wanted to play with my buddy. The Spurs are a great organization. ... Q: What is the main difference? A: The atmosphere was great in Charlotte despite all the losses. But here, in San Antonio, I'm in a more serious environment.

If the French suck, then how is it that they somehow landed two star players in the NBA ?

Don't forget the Hick from French Lick. I seem to recall he was a decent player.

I hope that he's just waiting to look for a place and isn't out of money....
