uh... what?
of course not, but it is no use discussing this, all that remains is to wait and watch
uh... what?
LOL. I guess I just haven't been paying attention. I swear I thought they had a team option on him, but it's a player option. He's going to miss a great opportunity to get paid if he doesn't step it up. What we're seeing should be as motivated as he gets, which doesn't give me an easy feeling.

Interesting read on the difficulty of utilizing a player with Okafor's weaknesses(which is everything but on-ball scoring)..
Just read that piece. I haven't watched him enough to know if the numbers paint an accurate picture but those rebounding stats are dismal.at LMA being on their list too.
I wouldn't want to trade for Okafor unless I was a perennial loser trying to crack the playoffs. If he's going to become a good player it won't be until he signs his next contract. That's part of the problem with really raw players, you don't get full value from their rookie contract.
His minutes have increased over the last 3 weeks and he's producing as I predicted.
24pts, 14rebs, 5ast, 1blk, 1stl vs Magic
24pts, 9rebs vs Clippers
25pts, 8rebs, 1blk, 1stl vs Hawks
(continued)
19pts, 7rebs, 2stl vs Cavaliers
17pts, 7rebs, 2ast, 2stl in 19 MINUTES vs Mavericks
Considering the Sixers gave up Nerlens Noel for Justin Anderson and a second round pick.. I think Kyle, Forbes, and this year's second round pick gets it done. Throw in Milutinov's rights if needed.
With how injury prone Embiid is and Okafor having durability issues so far too, I don't see the impetus for them to move Holmes and nothing in that "package" would figure to entice them to, either.
If Dedmon can't be re-signed with the MLE or Reed signed with it, Nogueira would be a more logical target. He's a year away from an extension and with them likely to have a bloated payroll going forward, it's highly unlikely they'll be willing to invest in their fourth (Ibaka plays some center) center.
He's like a much worse rebounding, much better passing version of Dedmon.
The Sixers have 4 second round picks this year (36, 39, 45, 48). If they could throw in one or two of those along with Holmes, I'm sure RC would give them Danny.
I like Noguiera's potential defensively. Not sure why he's such a bad rebounder with size like that though. Wouldn't mind having him instead paying Deadman big money![]()
They're not moving Green and Holmes plus 1-2 2nds would be a terrible trade.
Noguiera lacks strength and is soft, but he'd probably cost the Spurs a future 1st.
