So we will see about that "Godfather offer" wont we
Philly likes Mudiay.  I bet they get him before this is over.  One of the bigs will be shipped out.

from Sosh...

@WojYahooNBA: For now, the Sixers plan to keep Okafor -- not trade him, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

If I wanted to know what Woj is reporting during the draft, I'd be following him.

And now it gets interesting...

Very... not only because Philly now has 3 franchise bigs... but because the Knicks are probably trading down or out.

It's like a rich man's version of Denver having Javale McGee, Kosta Koufos, and Timofey Mozgov all under contract at the same time.

How'd that work out for them?

I'd argue that anyone surprised by this hasn't been paying attention to how Hinkie operates.

The Sixers plan to keep Okafor --- for good, sources tell Yahoo. He won't be auctioned in a trade.

Boring pick, Okafor. Won't be able to play with Noel either. Nevermind Embiid.

No way. They'll trade him or Joel or Noel before the season. They have to. You can't properly groom three of those guys who play the same position. They'll look horrible and start losing value.
