Okafor was my least favorite pick of the Hinkie era, but in hindsight, he makes sense. Draft the best talent on the board, and the let the chips fall where they may.

can't dump this guy for a Sinatra CD but he was the right pick in hindsight? yeesh

We won't know whether we can or can't "dump this guy" for the next 24-48 hours.

I am holding out hope that there has been a lot of misdirection and media efforts to lower Okafor's perceived value pre-trade. Danny Ainge is good at what he does. Hopefully reality will reflect a better return than what we are seeing on twitter so far.

I heard Brett had to stop the workout midway through to literally tell Ben what a jump shot was
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

I'm assuming that they said Benny, we really want to pick you number one, and we appreciate the medical documents, but we need you in our shit ass practice facility before we sign you. We want you to appreciate what is being built when we move to the new complex.

Chad Ford was on the David Locke podcast and said the Sixers and Brett brown are comfortable with Simmons as the point guard even if he won't be called that.

It's all a charade, he gave us his medicals, worked out for us and trusts the process as the ultimate deception, he's secretly working to humiliate us when he spurns us for the Lakers.

Maybe he'd only come work out if we promised we'd give him a final ruling on who we were picking.
