How about even better.

Wizards trade Gils boat anchor mega max contract, 2nd, plus 18th in 2014

for

One of the top 3 n D SF in the league, one year of Oakfor who was a really good defensive center that helped the team transform into a defensive team, and one year of the top P n R centers in the league.

TA and Gortat contracts expire the same year Gil contract the only cost 15M this last year and Gil cost 22M


Is that accurate? You could argue we ended up better off. I mean, had we simply said to Gil, you're injured, we're not giving you a max contract, and let him walk, we would not have been able to acquire Oakarizatat.

Has anyone in Washington seen or heard anything regarding Okafor's rehab?

He is one the radar for many teams as a cheap, veteran big man in FA, but I haven't heard anything about him being healthy enough to play.

Any info for me?
