While you're wringing your hands about Flip taking Okafor...don't underestimate Flip's faith in KG working w/ him on defense & positioning

I see some truth in this. With Okafor's length and athleticism, I believe KG could really help him become a plus defender. Towns is still my guy though.

This won't go over well on the board.

That being said if Flip and scouts feel they can make Okafor a good defender, you pick him.

Makes sense. KG's mentoring is always the answer.

I read in an article Flip crediting having KG around to the strong finish of LaVine and Wiggins. I thought you would love hearing that.

He had to justify that trade somehow, right?

I guess. I'm fine with having Garnett on the team. I believe having that proven vet voice amongst the kids is a positive. Some do take the mentor thing a bit far however.

Having KG as a mentor takes the pressure of Flip as a coach, he can just blame the mentor now and not have any accountability!
