Why Jahlil Okafor ain’t playing in Brooklyn either lol

[No Hook]

He has a horrible motor for a big man and he's still the same player he was when came into the league. His skill set just doesn't belong in todays NBA

havent been watching the Nets lately but they said when he got there he was out of shape. which that sends a bad message about him. the Nets really want to play him because they need to see if he is a piece they would like to re-sign or if they can get something of value for him. its not that the Nets dont want to play him...they really do.

Exactly, if they were trying to trade him they would atleast be trying to show he has SOME value.

Should of stayed in college

He was the 3rd overall pick in the draft

terrible motor and softttttt. with no 3-point shot he doesnt have a future.

Jah took out his frustrations on the Sixers on himself. Even if Philly was like “Jah we want you out there tonight,” he wouldn’t have been physically ready. Says a lot about his work ethic.

That Duke squad that won the title is bizarre. Of all the talent on that team, the only one that appears to have a concrete role moving forward is Tyus Jones.

Plumlee and Matt Jones - G-League (in fairness Plumlee overachieved)

Cook and Jefferson - two way deals

Winslow and Okafor - disappointing and injury prone

Jones - backup guard but he’s in a secure spot

Allen - we’ll see

Those dummies tricked him

 

[Typical Knicks Fan]

He should go to China and dominate like Marbury and Jimmer.

 

[jaguar paw]

They want to win games.

I love how you nikkas talk shyt about King Jah's defense yet somehow conveniently ignore how KATs defense is because he shoots threes. I just want yall to put into perspective that KAT has been so ass at defense he got Thibs as a coach and they still one of the worst defenses in the league

 

[Kings County]

Should of stayed in college

no he shouldnt have lol
idk what nikkas think staying in college gon do for nikkas
nba got the best coaches and development guys in the world
some nikkas either got it or they dont

 

[feelosofer]

I've been watching him as a Nets fan. I think the dude can play but he needs to get in basketball shape. Kenny Atkinson is a good a developer of talent as any coach we have had so, I'm willing to be patient and see what he can do with Okafor.

He's heard some of the concerns and has gotten a bit better as an individual defender, but his basketball iq is still suepr low so he finds himself out of position too often. Def not a good defender but improving

But the real reason ppl like KAT is his offensive game is complete....can stretch it out to 3 and score on all 3 levels efficently. Jah ain't sniffing that

What kind of deflection is this

Fat boy does nothing but head fake all day in the lane and slow/clog things up

Reminds me of a taller fatter Melo

 

[Collateral]

It’s a damn shame too because the Nets desperately needs his size inside. Our starting center is 6’7 215 Granted, RHJ is one of the best players on the team but still.

Jah sabotaged his own career by being a moody lil girl. And instead of keeping his body in shape, he completely let himself go because he figured he wasn’t gonna get burn in Philly anyway, which he didn’t. Very immature and unprofessional on his part.

 

[No Homo]

Hes been playing alright when he gets minutes.

I just think Kenny is trying to win games but hes also lost a few when teams went small and we needed a bucket... he couldve used jah to get easy buckets.

I think they are just bringing him along slowly. He'll be getting more burn soon. I hope
