So I guess Philly is looking for a 2nd rounder for Okafor? And we don't have one to offer, at least in '18 or '19, so could we offer a 2nd rounder down the road, or something else?
I like Theis and don't want his minutes cut much. I'm also not particularly pro-Okafor, but I think this team could be a 55+ win team this year even without Hayward, so I'm not super concerned about our own 1st this year if we were willing to offer it for JO + a 2nd.
I think buying low on a 21 year-old 7-footer who averaged 15+ PPG as a 19 year old rookie seems smart, if CBS is on board. Having Okafor as a low post scoring bench specialist who can play on the 2nd unit next to Theis (who's getting minutes for his defense, rebounding and rim running) I think would help us. This year our bench has had scoring droughts, and adding JO should allow CBS to play lineups that suit situations where we need to emphasize scoring. Morris-Okafor-Rozier would be a good 3 headed scoring monster off the bench.
