Okafor on the Spurs would mean rings. His style of play is the closest to Tim Duncan's in years.
Seems like speculation from the writer. Nothing from a source, he's quoting Sports Illustrated where a guy is just throwing shit to the wall of places Okafor could land and where he would like to see him end up. http://www.si.com/nba/video/2016/07/...rade-scenariosQuote:

"I think right now it's best to say we like all of them, we want to see if we can make the most out of each of them in terms to their contributions to this team," Colangelo told SiriusXM NBA Radio. "But at the end of the day, the reality says one has to go at some point, but only when the deal is right."

Last season, it became clear that Okafor and Noel couldn't play together because neither can move down to power forward. Both struggle defending smaller players and neither can score outside the paint with any regularity.
Even if one of them were able to slide down, it wouldn't matter. Next season, that position is going to be filled by Simmons and the 12th pick of the 2014 draft, Dario Saric. Meanwhile, Embiid will take as many minutes as he can handle at center. There's just not enough playing time for everyone, and benching lottery picks is not a good way to maximize assets.
It's a bullshit article. Many teams could use him and would be able to bid much more than Patty Mills.Quote:

I was suggesting Mills to Philly because they don't have shooting or a good PG during the lead up to the draft. I liked Luwawu but a Luwawu for Mills doesn't make sense sense the Spurs need a good backup and Murray isn't ready.
Mills and a 1st or Mills and Simmons + 1st for Okafor would be a deal worth considering. He can't defend or shoot outside of the paint and is a bad rebounder, and a 68% FT shooter but has potential to be a stellar low post player and is only 20. Heard comparisons to Al Jefferson and Brook Lopez.
You used my post to describe people talking about trading Manu. Don't know how that could be miss perceived. But hey, no hard feelings man. I'll pray for you.Quote:

I think Okafor's issues are more about attitude and mentality than they are anything else... but he did put up 17 & 7 in an NBA season he started at age 19. That's pretty impressive. If the Spurs vetted him and thought he was capable of maturing (unlike, say, DeMarcus Cousins), I'd absolutely be in favor of trying to grab him... He won't be as good as Karl-Anthony Towns, but at worst he could be a better version of Kanter or B. Lopez on a very inexpensive rookie scale contract.
First proposed trade. Kyle and Patty for Okafur. http://www.si.com/nba/video/2016/07/...rade-scenarios
