Ok two comparisons for Shawn Long IMO:
1.) Nene Hilario (2011 version onwards)
2.) Gortat

So is everyone in agreement that Long is a better player than Okafor?

Easily. It's pretty sad that Shawn Long has generated more value above replacement level play in 100 minutes than Okafor has in 100 games.

Very sad. Just about any other player drafted at 3 would have been better. Embarrassing.

Yes

BC setting the fanbase up in any kind of disappointment if we ever dont get any kind of value for Okafor, by finding a much better player as replacement.

I'd like to think it as a whole by us ending up with Holmes and Okafor with a top 3 pick and a second rounder at the 2015 draft

I don't know guys if I'm crazy but I'm really impressed with Shawn Long.

He can hit 3s and the team plays best D (even better than Noel) when he's oncourt.

He could be even better if he got into better shape. He looks a bit overweight right now.
