Looking very closely at Okafor recently with trade talk looming, his game and personality is extremely flawed and it got me wondering how someone as revered as Mike Krzyzewski would not have stamped out these flaws even partially during Okafor's year at Duke? Okafor was very lazy on defence and getting back on d throughout the college season and obviously his many personal problems must have shown its head at some time.
I began to look back at current NBA players that have come through the Duke basketball program and found that although these kids are obviously very talented almost all had extremely flawed games coming into the NBA in comparison to Calipari's Kentucky Wildcats. Laettner, Brand, Austin Rivers, J. J. Redick, McRoberts, Winslow, Plumlee brothers and Okafor all were extremely flawed going into the NBA and were all perhaps drafted too high for their classes. Now compare those players with Calipari's batch of; Bledsoe, Booker, Cousins, Davis, Cauley-Stein, Knight, Lyles, Patterson, Towns, Walls ect. these players are all very well rounded (except Cauley-Stein) and have been very productive NBA players with some being very underrated during the draft.
This leads me to the conclusion that coach K is very good at creating a unit of players that can function at an elite level but he is lacking when it comes to developing the player, skill and personality wise.
