Could depend on who wins the lottery. If LA or Boston gets that first pick and the rights to Okafor, that could be the deciding factor.Danny Ainge got a war chest for situations just like this.

Cousins got one of the All-Time steal me faces

I get that, but would you rather roll the dice with some picks that could wind up around 8-11 or a sure shot at Okafor? I'm not sure I'd trust this current Kings FO in that situation.The Celtics own the Nets picks until 2018, you're not seeing them with them assets breh.

I agree with that but some guys don't pan out and there are questions about Okafor's defense, which Cousins answered while Malone was coaching. We know Cousins can put up 24/12 right now and he's only 24.I don't see why anyone would trade Okafor for Cousins though, they're basically the same guy in regards to their games.
If the Lakers got Okafor, I think they'd just keep him.

I'll admit I haven't watched much of Okafor this year, but does he have a mean/nasty streak like Cousins has?
why did they fire malone?

He's done that before -
Dude is completely done with that organization, they should explore trading him, yeah he's locked up but he's not going to give any kind of real effort, he basically stopped trying on defense since they fired Malone. He was among the best rim protectors on the league before they canned Malone.
". You are right they need to go ahead and get rid of him because he's clearly not giving any fukks right now.Given their rosters, I just KNEW Charlotte & Sacramento were swapping picks. Made entirely too much sense. Then they didn't. It's like they made the picks with that in mind then forgot9. Vonleh

That was the rest of the lotto. Only Payton looks like a keeper so far

never know tho. shyt a lot of nikkas look good, but dont pan out in the league. Who's to say that Oakfor doesnt get to the league and party too much or start drinking. I get what you saying about him being compared to Cousins which I agree on, but with rookies you just never know what you are getting. We know for a fact Demarcus is arguably the best center in the NBA ( i think if Mike Malone was here, he would be hands down the best).Cousins had those same questions about his defense before he was drafted, they're virtually the same exact size, only thing really separating them is Cousins has a 2-3" standing reach advantage, outside of that they are damn near clones of each other physically.
Okafor doesn't have a mean streak, but he clearly has a competitive "You can't fukk with me" side to him. Okafor projects out to being Cousins but without the shyt like the video above....I wouldn't trade Okafor for Cousins.
