Okafor vs Chandler so far

[Zaximus]

Okafor: 10.8ppg, 9.9 rbg, 1.9 bpg,

Chandler: 6.6ppg, 7rpg, 1.16 bpg, currently hurt and missed 5 more games than Okafor

I think we'd be better off with Okafor.... he was pretty consistent, you knew what you'd get.

pretty big steal for us although we're still terrible, at least we have another building block to go with CP3.

Long term this was a great deal. That summer when we gave Okafor that deal he was the best in the pool of players. Was he worth the money?.... NO. Did he play up to his contract? .... NO. Is he worth the money now? (given those stats that are above) NO. He was the best of the worst for that summer so, instead of not signing anyone you keep what you have and pretend that your happy. With that being said, Chandler is nowhere close to living up to his contract. Both players are C level players getting B+-A level money and, they both are not worth the money. The big difference is the length of those contracts. After this year Okafor has 4 years left on his contract..... thats 4 years of overpaid average basketball. Chandler has until the end of this year and an option to come back next year. I cant see Chandler wanting to comeback next year to play for this team.

So now what? This summer you a have a pocket full of money in one of the deepest Free Agent pools in NBA history..... Lebron, Wade, Bosh, McGrady, Dirk, Joe Johnson, Ming, Amare, Ray Allen, Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge, Boozer, Camby, Rudy Gay just to name a few. We have a good chance at signing any of them outside of Wade, Lebron, or Roy.

At the end of the day this was still a good trade.

He would leave almost 13 million on the table if he did that and based on his injury history plus his poor stats for this season, any new contract he gets wouldn't be more much more than 2-4 million per year and probably no more than 2 years.

This upcomming FA class is so overloaded in both quality and quantity that he may have a hard time finding a team willing to take a risk on him.

He'll come back I'm sure to collect a paycheck.

We probably won't sign any of those FA's listed above.

if we make the playoffs this year- our chances go up mildly to nabbing one of them..

we actually win a series?! our chances go up tremendously

They are two different players. Chandler fits us better and he hasn't been 100% Mekas numbers have been better but i still like Chandler better for this team if we can get him on the court. Meka just never felt right for this team just like Jason Richardson didn't either.
