I think I found the fairest trade so far.

Sixers trade Okafor

Suns trade Bledsoe.

Sixers take a chance on a injured guy who has all star potential but also fits a need.

Suns get a great center go along with two shooter in knight and booker. And another wing added with the fourth pick or possibly bender to compliment Okafor. Could be a great core going forward.

I would never do this if I'm philly. way overpaying for the often injured Bledsoe.

I know most Philly fans won't be up for it, I think it's fair.

next year's draft is loaded with pg. Sixers may have 2 top lottery picks, between the kings pick swap and possibly Lakers pick. why give up okafor for bledsoe? getting 50 cents on your dollar.

Haha love it jvung how the sixers may have two top picks. Lakers pick. And kings swap. As if it is a done deal the sixers are vastly improved. Love the optimism.

Po forget that BLEDSEO was a all star type of player before the injuries. And he hitting his prime years turning 26. Okafor is a great player too but Embiid and Noel and saric make it tough to get time. This way we trade small star potential young center for a more vet but still young all star point guard.

Suns could use the upgrade at center or pf as well so it works all around.

A great center? He's young and has potential, but to call him great is silly.

Triangle

17.5 ppg and 8 rebounds at age 19/ 20. Not impressive at all huh. Guess we can keep salivating over prozingus and his 14 and 7. Or hey Russell and his 13 ppg. Towns went for 18 and 10.
That's pretty close to okafors numbers. But I guess all those guys are great and Okafor isn't. A center in his prime in today Nba would let even put up those numbers. Yes right now Oakfor is in the top twenty centers in the NBA for sure. At age 19/ 20. Because 20 and 10 guys come around all the time right?

Mike- Jvoug said "may have two top lottery picks". That statement is 100 percent true.

Of Bledsoe wasn't injured last year then I'd trade Okafor for him in a heartbeat, but the fact is that he was out through the end of the year and has been out, from what I can remember, a few times throughout his career. Pair that with the fact that okafor is on his rookie contract still then I'd think Okafor has the higher value at the moment. Therefore as a Sixers fan I'd want a little more value back.

Yeah, I just thought it was funny the way he phrased it.

Tre. what's classic move by you is to go, dang, dude has 17 and 8. Far better than Porzingist at 14 and 7. Actually, Porzingis had more rebounds than Okafor. Both Towns and Porzingis showed potential to be elite defenders. which if you want to agree or not so be it, it is 50% of the game. let's say Okafor is an A on the offensive side. And let's be kind and give him a D on defense. what's that? A B-?

Yes, he is a good prospect. He is not elite. He hasn't done anything. And for you to in one breath go, MCW was just inflated stats on a bad team. Okafor scored that on an even worse team. Stick Okafor a team with actual players. A team like the thunder. you think he's getting even 12 and 6? that's the point.

No one said he isn't top 20. But he surely isn't top 10. And strong chance won't be elite. Just keep pumping up his 17 and 7. On one of the top 5 worst teams in the history of the sport. Someones got to get points, just so happened to be him. Drama queen.

Suns don't need another center they have Len but they could use some help at the pf spot. The 76ers could use some wing scoring so why not get a third team involved. The Hornets could use Okafor and in return give away Hawes or Zeller to the Suns and maybe Lamb to the 76ers.

Hornets/ Suns/ 76ers

Hornets out Zeller, Lamb and 22
Suns out Bledsoe
76ers out Okafor

Hornets in Okafor, which would then give enough cap to resign everyone
Suns in Zeller, giving them an athletic 4 to pair with Len or Hawes and 22
76ers in Bledsoe and Lamb.

Mike- if Okafor was on the thunder he would be putting up the same numbers if not more points ppg. He gets double teamed as a sixer he wouldn't be getting that treatment as part of the thunder.

When there are more options, the scoring is less. He wasn't double teamed any more than any other down low center. The fact was the ball went down low to him as often as it did because there was no one else to pass to. When your second best offensive player is named Ish. you get more shots and points.

I just find it fascinating that all sixers fans can agree, MCW had ridiculously inflated stats because his team was AWFUL and he had no one surrounding him. He goes to another team and is basically worthless.

Meanwhile, Okafor. worse team, even fewer people surrounding him. and all we hear is 17 and 7, 17 and 7! Exact same thing as MCW. As a rookie, MCW was over 17, over 6 and over 6. Basically, he was okafor, with 6 assists per game and some semblance of defense. But the fact is the same for both, there are major deficiencies in each's game which will hold their careers back from being great.

So Tre apparently believes Okafor, on the thunder, would be averaging about 25ppg. Yeah, and MCW will be scoring 20+ a game and 10 assists per game with a team like the bucks.

Mike anyone who watched the Sixers know the different between mcw and Oakfor. mcw scored by hustling on a team that was constantly down by ten to fifteen points.

Okafor they had to stop from scoring to get 10 to 15 point leads. They doubled him, They collapsed, and Okafor never passed out the paint because every time he did our wings would miss wide open threes. I think we had the most wide open three point attempts in league history. We also missed nearly 70 percent of those. Oakfor had no hope on the Sixers last season. And yet he still shot fifty percent from the floor. Was prozingus doubled last year? None not ever. Was towns? Nope not even close. I'd tkae Oakfor over prozingus for sure. Town however I believe has that something extra and I have to give him the nod. But prozingus shouldn't even be a conversation. Talk to me when he breaks 15ppg and 10 rebounds. I still say if he was in ny he'd be a nobody.

If okafor was on the thunder, he'd come off the bench and average 13 and 8. I know this because okafor is Enes Kanter, they're the same.

I think whatever Adams averaged for the thunder, youd add a few points and subtract a few rebounds, and that's around what Okafor would get you.

The double team factor along with the fact that they have no guards to get him the ball in good spots plays a factor too. Big guys are usually only as good as thier point guards. Especially ones that aren't necessarily going to take too many guys off the dribble.

Adams was 8 and 6. Okafor on a good team is maybe 12 and 5. Not even average center. That's my point. He isn't coming off the bench and getting more rebounds.
Tre. Of all the sixers fans. You are the most dillusional. So you pump okafor but he rebounded less and played more minutes. You say don't talk til over 20 pts. So okafor and towns don't count as good scorers. Or is this another one of your famous. for everyone I use this standard. For sixers though. Oh man. Hall of famer even though inferior productions. Whoopa.

Tre. Talk to me when your beast center. Who never leaves the paint. Rebounds more than porzingis who was often on the arc. Or even better. Talk when he averages 1.5 blocks. A decent but not great number for a center. Especially one who NEVER leaves the paint. Fool.

Mike he average 1.2 blocks. For a "terrible defender" he was right there with prozingus. And btw. Why am I giving prozingus a pass because he plays at the three point line. That's a stupid play style for a 7 foot three guy. Get in the paint. He doesn't shoot particularly well anyway. 33% from three. Wasted shot in my opinion. Prozingus has potential as he's so young but not more then Okafor who's the same age except a lot better right now.
