    Emaka's given me enough grief this season. As if his low FG% and FT% aren't enough, there's no timetable on when he's gonna get back on court. There aren't any takers for him in my league and I don't know what I can get for him. Right now there are a few Centers like Raef and Nazr on the waivers that can help me with something, but I dont want to lose him and help some one else if he gets picked up. Whatcha y'all think?

    The same thing happend to me with Amare Stoudimire. He is a top 10 guy but he won't be back maybe until march and my team is staying at a 500. level. I kept Amare and when he comes back the wait will be worth it. I think that you should probably drop Okafor because he's not the same as Amare and not worth keeping. Get a better F/C. But when he is healthy agian try to see if anyone took him and if they did'nt take hime back.

    I've decided to keep him and wait till he returns. I just can't think of dropping him and getting picked up by the guys above me. I'm hoping he'd return in another couple of weeks and hit a better FG%. I only need his rebounds. Luckily my team's hanging in the 4th spot without him.

    Charlotte Bobcats power forward Emeka Okafor can do little more than walk on his injured right ankle, but he still believes he'll play again this season.

    "I'm just walking on it, not cutting or running yet," he said before Monday night's game against the Miami Heat.

    He is done. Hang on if you like, but if there is a productive guy on waivers (i.e. Gomes, Wilcox, Blount, Bonner) you will be better off. If he makes it back this season he won't be worth the bandage around his ankle.
