- We are about to give up another first rounder for another center that doesn't fit our coach or our system.
at least its the 2018 pick, right now our only long term guys are AD, Asik, and Ajinca. 2 of which are borderline useless. We swap one of those out with Okafor.

- We are doubling down on getting that sacrificial 8 seed and all but guaranteeing losing out on the top heavy star studded draft.
I don't think he will be some kind of savior. we're still inconsistent at guard/SF

- We have no clear guarantees of Jrue's return to the point the Sixers have equal confidence in signing him. So we are just rolling the dice on Jrue since it seems we don't want to include him.
yup, which worries me. we could realistically net a 1st rounder or another quality guard for him...

I can get down with this if it's a 2018 pick and we are getting rid of either Asik or Ajinca.
I think you trade that pick for Okafor straight up all day.
AD with Okafor, Buddy, and another high profile rookie next year. That has the makings of something.

No but based on the tweets it seems we are still gunning for playoffs. So either cash in and go for broke or ride out this season and actually contend for that pick to mean something. This is not a trade that needs to happen today if we weren't looking to improve to get that spot.

Unless you have a guarantee from Jrue, creating a bunch of "if this, then this" scenarios for our future seems reckless.
It seems to me if this font office was really not in some capacity trying to save their jobs, this is the sort of trade that could just as easily happen this offseason. Allowing you even better opportunity to get a better draft position. Not to mention know much clearer what Jrue's intentions are.
