re: Chad Ford: 6 and Ajinca for Jahlil Okafor?

Well he's a 1 way center focused on improving defensively. The book is already written on a guy like Brook Lopez, but not Okafor

As for the contract stuff, that's a long way in the future. If he doesn't develop defensively you have a 20 ppg center to trade. If he does develop you may have a top 5 NBA center to resign

And let's not put stock in anything the divers did last year

In a perfect world, we could hand pick each player to fill a specific need. Of course we want a center that checks all the boxes, but how many are there like that? shite, there are only a few with the potential as it is, and Okafor is one
