    Hmmm, Okafor is not playing tonight, game almost over. Embiid is out with an injury.

    he'll be going somewhere for less than we should have offered.

    The Pels or the Bulls will likely get him.

    Why do you think the Pelicans?

    Pels already offered Jrue Holiday for Okafor last week. Apparently deal is still on the table.

    I didn't know that. Wouldn't be a horrible deal for them, and probably better than what the Blazers could offer.

    Lakers might be offering up Jordan Clarkson. That's not a terrible swap.

    He's also a UFA after this season so it could be risky for them. Probably the only reason a deal didn't get done already.

    Pels didn't offer holiday, that's just who the sixers wanted. That's why talks stalled.

    Yep. Pels only offered Ajinca and 1st rounder (and not one this year I pretty sure).

    And why are we sweating Okafor? I mean he's an ok buy low candidate but we don't really need him. I'd rather have Plumlee at center. Okafor is Al Jefferson.

    Agreed. Last thing we need to do is make a move for the sake of making a move. Especially when it is going to cost us a pick. Although if we are ABSOLUTELY sure we won't have Plumlee next year then maybe it is worthwhile. I have never liked Okafor much personally but all signs seem to point to Olshey being high on him.
