Saric only makes sense IMO if he is replacing KO and we are getting value for KO elsewhere. He might be better or worse (I feel more comfortable with KO Saric doesn't sound/seem much better and is purportedly hotheaded like Boogie), but these guys have the same general strengths and weaknesses on the court and we won't rebound so well pairing either with Horford. I am not sure Okafor is a great complement to Horford, but he was my pick for #1 overall last season and I should arguably trust my instinct despite his disappointing season last year which arguably confirmed some concerns about him. Since '93, Greg Oden, Kevin Love, and Antawn Jamison are the only other collegiate freshmen to average 15+ ppg, 8+ RPG, 60+% from the field (ETA inside the arc), and 1+ block per game. I want the rights to Korkmaz - Saric's teammate overseas - in any deal with Philly...
Now, if Okafor and Saric are going to Sacramento...
