Could there be a bigger distinction between "what you picture a person resembling when hearing it for the first time, without any context" and "what that person looks like" than for the name alexis ajinca?

I don't like that trade, but if you get 6 you take Baldwin and you don't think twice.
Quick Google shows that GoGo is wrong with regards to the Kiwi and the Banana.

At 6 you are guaranteed one of Dunn/Murray/Bender/Buddy

Baldwin seem like a great fit with Simmons. Really sharp in his interviews too.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

I want to deal Okafor as much as the next guy, but how did we go from "If we get the #3 from the Celtics, what else would we need to get..." to "Yeah, let's deal him for the #6 and their crappy center." ?

Let's get a good return on last year's #3 pick, who would be the unquestioned #3 pick this year as well. No way in heck Hinkie would do this Chad Ford/Bill Simmons concoction...

Just one man's opinion but I think you (and many others) overestimate Okafor's market value.

In terms of ridiculous size/swoleness I think he's past prime Dwight right?

@JonRothstein
Hearing Philadelphia absolutely loves Providence's Kris Dunn. Could be Sixers' target if team acquires another top-five pick. #pcbb

Tomorrow, they’ll bring in similar prospects: Bryn Forbes (Michigan State), Grandy Glaze (Grand Canyon), Stefan Jankovic (Hawaii), Retin Obasohan (Alabama), David Walker (Northeastern), and Stephen Zimmerman (UNLV).
