Do we know what he did or didn't turn down? There were rumors of this type of deal, but we don't know if that is factual and/or was turned down. Not a bad deal, but they'll need to make another roster move.

Can we please ban him from the board? He just goes trolling from team board to team board.

I find it hard to believe we can't get something done with Chicago for Okafor involving Mirotic, Valentine, and a protected future first.

It's probably the best return we can hope for, but didn't BC reportedly turn this exact offer down?

Don't we already have enough euro stretch 4s. I'd move Jahlil for Valentine and a top 20 protected 1st.

They're going to make the playoffs this year, they can give up their mid first this year. And let them have Ilyasova and Rodriguez as well, and take Rondo back and waive him.

Trade Okafor and Gerald Henderson for Danny Green and righto Nikola Milutinov.

How big is the chance he still gets traded?

Does the success of AD/Boogie directly affect the trade value of Okafor and the future of back to the basket bigs and the possibility of a shift back to traditional basketball away from small ball? Is small ball the future or just a phenomenon of the right talent on the right team at the right time?

(...) The 76ers, meanwhile, have been quite transparent about their intentions to trade their second-year big man, Jahlil Okafor, but the source said Okafor is not on the Celtics’ radar. (...)

Can't say I buy that at all. I could see Indy inquiring about Ilyasova, but not Okafor.

Common denominator is that teams think they can pair Okafor with their big who can protect the rim and space the floor. Also helps when you have PG at the wing at D.

2017 pacers late teens pick and 2019 pick swap option is the best non PG deal I can see
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

That would be an awesome. I can't see it but, then again, Demarcus Cousins is a Pel now.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

I think Okafor goes to the Bulls, Butler goes to Boston and PHI gets a couple crappy youngsters and mid range 1st round pick. Three way with Bryan Colangelo giving Danny Ainge a hiny wash.
“This may be one of the best jobs in basketball right now,” Colangelo said at a press conference introducing him as the new GM of the 76ers after Sam Hinkie resigned.
