Dudes getting gassed up over al Jefferson type production against nbdl level comp

I know right...

He ain't even AL Jefferson. And if he is? So what... no one winning with a soft center who is an average rebounder.

Yep...If Gasol can become DOY, why can't Jah become a soild defender?? He'll be fine.

He's the same height as DeMarcus Cousins and Enes Kanter, he's a center that needs to be paired with a defensive big (Like both of them)....Philly has that.

Man these dudes mad as shyt. This kid 19 hasn't played basketball in months and is commanding double teams already that is impressive

Nerlens gonna feast on the weakside with him getting double teamed and shyt.

Dudes making sweeping statements about him

Everyone knew his defense was a weakness, why are dudes acting shocked now? And we've known he was 6'9.5" without shoes for a year now, which is the same general height as Cousins, Jordan, Drummond, Kanter and Dwight.


Like Kanter & Cousins he's going to need time to adjust to bigger defenders and how to use his body to score, when he does he's gonna be a 20/10 guy.

Okafur is not, will ever be, a star. He needs to seriously bulk up because he's a C all day and he's tremendously undersized for that position and he doesn't protect the rim.

I could make an argument the euro New York drafted should have went before Okafur.

Yup he will be fine and there will be growing pains. I am just glad he is on the team. Brett Brown will mold him well as had experience with Duncan

You are wrong as usual. Cousins is much longer than Okafur, a much better rebounder, and a great passer. Cousins also looks noticeably taller to the naked eye.

Good try. You do what you do best, which is take loses to me.

Gasol is 7'1 nikka... Okafur looks like he's barely 6'10 and you know it.

I wonder what these posts would be if okafor was a laker....

breh has to be trolling at this point...Cousins and Okafor literally have almost identical measurements. Okafor averaged more assists then Cousins did at Kentucky

That's why I said a solid not DPOY. Jah does have a nice wingspan and standing reach. Him being a solid defender is all on him...and the scheme.

Get his name right, it's Okafor.

Height without shoes:

Cousins - 6'9.5"
Okafor - 6'9.5"

Do you ever know what you're talking about?

 

[SchoolboyC]

It would be filled with Laker fans stanning for him, calling him the next dominant big man. Which is basically what it was like from the lottery until draft night
