The thought of giving up 3'twaun and a first for Jah makes me cringe.
To be fair it just said a pick, so for all we "know", it could have been a 2nd. Maybe Moore was part of the trade because using Ajinca would have required a 1st.

Also to be fair, the article does say another source familiar with the negotiations was unaware of a failed physical and said the trade fell apart because Dell/ Colangelo could not agree on pick protections:
That suggests a 1st was at least nominally (conveys as two 2nds) in the discussion for Okafor as I cannot imagine that protections on a 2nd ever derailed a deal. At the time BC was rumored to be seeking two 1sts or a 1st and a solid player, which he then dropped to a 2nd this year. See RealGM: Okafor Pushng for Buyout
I do believe that Jah failed a physical though as he is consulting the players union about legal actions he can take regarding the leaked information. He has had documented problems with his knee from a previous surgery.

AD has had his first taste of success and it came at C. With his drive, would it be that shocking if he changed his tune after these playoffs and seeing the trend of going small?
ETA: Looney played him really well. I am curious if he wants Cousins back for the GSW matchup alone.
