I hope so.

He has been on a roll over the past 5. 20 11 Boards and about 3 blocks. Against elite bigs too. Gasol. LA. Drummond. Stephen Adams.

Just when the world thought they wouldn't have the Whitney Young Dolphin product to kick around anymore he's back.

The way AD was coaching last night he might be thinking that Okafor is a reason for him to stay. May be pumping the brakes on the trade demands as we speak.

Jamal Murray still out tonight for Denver; tho Nuggets are 2-0 with Maple Curry sidelined. Will Barton getting more minutes with Murray out, going 9-15 for 20 points in Denver's gob-smacking -25 point 2nd half deficit win over the dystopian Grizzlies.

Decent plus-money on the Pelicans on Bovada, +315/+200/+145 game/1H/1Q.

Another Whitney Young player from the Suburbs. Nice to see him doing well. Especially since I picked him up in fantasy basketball :D .

I would say I wish the Bulls had him, but chances are zero he would be doing this under GarPax regime.

Definitely not with that idiot Boylen coaching him. They could have had for a song over the summer. $50,000 guaranteed. If didn't work no sweat to cut him.

I thought that if he couldn't play for Gentry he couldn't play for anyone. Only gave him a chance once the other guys were hurt.

Read where he had to beat out his cousin Emeka this fall for the spot. That is a helluva way to have to stay in the league.

Maybe being that close to being out of the league so quick lit a fire under him.

First thing i noticed in one of the first games he got run was his conditioning. He is in the best shape of his life it appears.

I think that he had to humble himself. The TMZ stuff during his rookie was a bad look. Came off as Arrogant but 19 years old and already a millionaire would do that to a lot of people.

He also battled depression the past year or so. Now he seems to be just hooping.

Nuggets now 3-0 without Murray. Denver could send a package centered around Murray to NO for AD.

This one didn't really work out for you ltg. At least Okafor manned up and tried to go at Jokic. Embiid sat out this past Saturday because he knew Joker was gonna wreck him.

I did find that very pathetic when I tuned into the big Jokic vs Embid game and Embid pussed out. They only play each other 2x per year, no excuse for Embid to choose that game for rest.

Yeah my man Oke didn't get the best of it. He acquitted himself rather well though. Edge to the Joker but he didn't dominate him.

I'm officially declaring Noel/Okafor debate to be over. Its time to hunt bigger game at this point.

Joker dominated him. He could have dropped 40 if he wanted to but settled for yet another triple double.

He couldn't check Okafor on the box. They kept sending a double and sometimes a triple at him all night long.

He will see him up the road. Hopefully it won't be from the bench :lol: :lol:
