FA targets 2014
What do you guys think about trying to sign Okafor?

Re: FA targets 2014
okay now we're talking, I definetly forgot he existed, has he fully recovered from the neck injury?
If he has then this could be huge for us, he's exactly what we need.
Last contract he got was 6/72 back in 08 coming off of a 14/11 season.
A year ago he averaged nearly 10/9 in 26mpg on those dysfunctional Wizards before they turned it around.
I'd offer him 4/32 & wouldn't think twice, with other recent signings I could see us doing 4/40.
It's a signing I'd be happy about.

You think you can get a defensive center that can average double double for 4-5m per year?
Meeks just signed 3/19 and CJ miles signed for 4/18 which is same amount of money as you're talking.
Maybe if we can ride until the FA until everyone runs out of money & hope they forget about him, but to get a center that cheap would be the absolute steal of the FA.

Half the years. I'd give him a Bynum contract where he could make $12 million per over two so long as it wasn't guaranteed.

Oh ok, yeah definetly then, actually exact, Bynum deal would be great.
That whole contract was beautifully structured.
