    What would need to do to get him?

    Who do we give up? Is it even possible?

    Codman was mumbling something about him

    No idea what philly wants for him, but I'm all for going after young talent.

    Wasn't that before we got Anderson? I know PF isn't solidified but he's not going to get the minutes he needs/wants to develop.

    Okafor can play center.
    I think they would want young players and picks I assume, maybe Bev i guess...

    Yeah, picks and young prospects like Montrezl. They are already loaded on Cs.

    Completing a trade for Okafor now would make this an A+ offseason for the Rockets.

    Whatever they want besides harden and of course the guys we just signed, give it to them.

    I would start with Dmo + ???? That would get them to start listening.

    Read that Philly.com’s Keith Pompey has suggested 76's target Beverley.
    “The Sixers need a non-traditional point guard who can spot up at the three-point line when Simmons grabs a rebound and runs the show on fastbreaks,” Pompey said.
    “Houston’s Patrick Beverley would be perfect for that role if the Sixers can acquire him in a trade. The Sixers are still shopping centers Nerlens Noel and Jahlil Okafor.”

    GET IT DONE!!!! Would be happy with either Okafor or Noel.

    Yeah not sure why I thought he was more of a PF. Guess I have not watched him enough. If the Sixers are entertaining moves I'd imagine Ariza and McDaniels could still be in play.

    Hopefully Codman expands on that post. I would LOVE to have Okafor on this team. I didn't know he was more available than Noel. I didn't even think Noel would be available. Okafor's off-court issues must be too much to tolerate in Philly.

    Kinda makes you wonder if Lucas' official hiring in Houston has anything to do with the possibility of "trouble maker" Okafor coming here.

    On a semi-related note, could Codman be Doc Rocket? COD is DOC backwards. Dun dun duuuuuun

    Lots of drugs followed by the kidnapping of Philadelphia's GM and owner. Then... maybe it could happen.

    If it were that easy it would already be done...

    They'll want a king's ransom for him. That said, I'm all ears.
