Emeka is not nearly tough enough to be compared to Big Ben. He has a better offensive game true, but he won't rebound like Ben. I don't even think he'll rebound like boozer. He could get 10+ a game and still not be in the class of ben wallace, ben is a grade A man off the boards.
then what grade is he? ok.. so say he gets a couple less rebounds then ben wallace. but he's a better defender than ben wallace. does that not equal out in some way? (not to mention the offensive improvement.. even though we're talking on a different point now..)
Even if he is not as good as Wallace in rebounding but he is a great defender and has good offensive skills where B. Wallace has almost no offensive skills. What is more, Okafor seems to have the potential to become a dominant player in the league. Much more potential than "all star" Brad Miller (for example) and Chris Bosh.

J-O'neal-7 you just cant say Emeka is a much better rebounder than ben just like that, Ben plays a whole different game. Ben plays in the NBA while Emeka in the NCAA(i think). Dont get me wrong Emeka is very good but comparing him or even saying that he is better than Big BEN is just ridiculous.
