Okafor to Houston?

Emeka Okafor is from Houston and he is a Rockets fan... He wants to leave Charlotte, so the Rockets can pursue him. He will be an huge upgrade over Scola, although the Argentinian is a very good player. Okafor can sign a contract starting at 9-10 millions, and go to the Rockets for Bobby Jackson, Luther Head and something else. Dreaming?

Great rebounder, blocker, his efficiency has gotten better ever year, he doesn't demand the ball a lot, I think he'd be a really good fit. But again why would the Bobcats do this?

Fabulous dream,but a dream.(I personally would love to have him on the team as he's a good complementary player,not a franchise player. And he would be the first player to turn down big bucks for the MLE as a FA.)
However,he's about all the height Charlotte has and in many ways he's the face of the franchise. In the remote chance Charlotte was willing to trade him to Hou,they'd probably ask for Scola,Francis-and the cash to buy him out-and at least a couple of Firsts. But they are trying to win now,co I don't see it happening.

This isn't realistic. Maybe tweak it and you can expore the idea some more in this thread that is stickied at the top of the page. http://www.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic. ... &start=312
