I guess that there is very remote chance in the future that Okafor will lead to Cousins, but he would almost certainly be part of the package headed to Sacramento.

How would you stop that though?  I don't beleive in trends overly.  I think you create them. Wouldn't Okafor and Boogie give us something other teams don't? Much like the splash brothers. Our own version of it but big.

Isaiah and bradley.  plus  those guys.   I think that would be pretty good.

With Cousins I think Okafor would be a power forward much like Duncan was to david robinson.

it's a pipe dream, and honestly not one that is overly exciting.  These two play very similar roles, I don't think would compliment each other well.

with two bigs trying to occupy the same spots on the floor, we'd become really easy to defend.  what would end up happening is that one would have to play the 'Kevin Love' role of staying out of the way and waiting for open 3pt looks. 

that, and there are no real-world scenarios where we acquire both. 

side note--- folks around here are going to be REALLY let down after this draft, when we don't assemble another KG/Ray juggernaut. 

Rival GM's are leery of making even "fair" deals with Ainge, much less these one-sided things we keep seeing proposed here.  Remember last year when we couldn't move 4 or 5 firsts for a single late lotto pick? 

Ainge's reputation for winning trades is a huge deterrent to our rebuilding strategy at the moment. 

Okafor is not a good center then. He's not a shotblocker. He's a poor rebounder for a center.  Poor defensively as well. This is the problem with so many young players is they play out of position. Aren't willing to learn their positions etc. Boogie as it stands plays all over the floor instead of like the center he is.  Even Noel does this and tries to guard people he shouldnt in transition.  Okafor is really a pf at this stage in his career and Boogie is a center.  P layers don't adapt and learn how to play with each other either?

Mchale was basically that. So was Duncan at first. They weren't centers.

okay, i'll play along. 

how do you propose we snag both?

Having Boogie on the floor makes Okafor irrelevant in every way..  And Boogie Being the headcase he has proven to be will more than like blow a fuse out of Frustration.. Those 2 offensive big boys cant shine in the same post.
