Of course they'd rather trade Okafor.

Noel has a better attitide, he's a got a skill set that better translates to today's NBA, he's an easier piece to build atound, and IMHO he has more upside.

Really the fact that the Sixers would rather trade Okafor then Noel should be all the proof anyone needs that Okafor is overrated...but alas people here will ignore it and insist he's a stud.

76ers wanting to trade Okafor is like somebody buying a brand new exotic performance car, then putting it up for sale one year later.  If i saw that i'd be concerned personally...

They want to trade Okafor because he has more trade value.  There's no way they could get more for Noel, if for no other reason than his rookie deal expires two years before Okafor.

I think people here forget how big Okafor actually is:
7'6'' wingspan
9'3'' standing reach
solid 280
Many people still go by height but players like Zeller and KO are the reason you should look at more measurements to determine length.Okafor also has a longer wingspan than both Turner and Towns, which means nothing if he can't use it correctly, but IMO the dude abides.
