Simmons should be getting boards, agree.. but he will be pushing the ball up the court off the board, what good will unathletic okafor dragging behind do for the team though. Also, you under utilize simmons when if you just putting it into the post with okafor. Simmons is best in the half court when he goes to the hoop and kicks it out or can get it to a slasher. I dont think okafor is good for a catch and layup/dunk as noel, so thats a wash.... All Okafor would be good for a simmons offense is he is okay for a mid range jumper, but there is definetely people better to do that.


I just feel there is no way Okafor is good unless you revolve a whole offense around him, like we said earlier. And that offense will not ever be a winner, Okafor is not that good. Thats why Danny Ainge wouldnt trade a 3 overall for him.. Just my two cents

I understand this exactly but maybe its just my sheer confidence in Jahs talent and skill set that I really think he can be a highly productive player and key piece going forward....Rather than paying Noel 20+ next season just see what Jah can do and bring Embidd along slowly.....Than in the draft look for one of the PGs or even draft another of the superstar wings....But don't give up on Jah while his skill set won't flourish in the modern NBA at least see what he has during the next season with an improved roster...Also lets be honest the NBA is a copycat league all it takes is for a team to have success with a post big and teams will fall in love with Jahs skill set at this point he's already better on the block than Kanter and monroe. I also don't see why he can't develop to a level below Gasol.


And fukk Danny Ainge he lowballs everybody.

@Malta your prophesy is coming true. You called it before the national guys back when he first was going to Kansas and we've all been waiting and watching since
that was 3 years ago,
that footwork and quickness of the spin looks like an shooting guard/hakeem hybrid. we have never seen Dwight pull off such a move. it's amazing to see him blossom so much physically. he looks like an MVP shaq bodywise before playing even one game :whew:

He is flat footed mean he not quick to rebounds and defensive. Cement foot. Embiid and him would be deadly as fukk down low

ahh ok...yeah that breh just won't ever have that....But I recall Marc Gasol not having those skills also but over the years he learned to be a good defender...Is it possible that Jah could become a good team defender over time?

I've never seen a kid pick up things faster than he did. Dude is the type of player who coaches would show him a post move and he would be able to incorporate it into his game for the next game. It's incredible.
