Jahlil Okafor Is Sui Generis

He reminds me of nobody.

Also, he's really really good. Duke is the best team in the land. I'm going on record.

 

Way to repeat exactly what they said on the broadcast, haha. He reminds me of Cousins a little. I hope you're right about the last part, though.

 

I thought it before Bilas said it, and you'll never know whether I'm lying when I say that, but I'm not. Stealing an announcer's lines is contrary to my worldview.

 

I believe you only because I've actually thought about it before, too. It was when my friend said he was comparable to Dwight Howard, which is pretty much the exact opposite of being true.

 

Yeah, I was having my own little self-to-self conversation, and was striking out over and over.

Durant? Nope.
Davis? Nope.
Second career Magic? Nope.
Gervin? Nope
[insert many more names]? Nope.

And none of them were even a little close. He's got his own style completely. I love guys like that...whose styles are totally their own.

 

Duncan?

 

I though it first, then implanted it in your brain, inception-style.

 

Duke is legit good and Okafor is a big part, but the game is guard dominated and Duke has a couple of very good ones.

Tyus Jones is the reason that team is better than years past. I still think KY's depth and size will pose a problem for this team.

 

I tend to find announcers to be a little behind the curve of saying things, even if they thought it at the same time as others. I believe you.

 

But I think UK's too big and too deep. On the record.

 

how deeeeep

 

I just watched some highlights, and I tend to agree.

 

I'm on record here somewhere talking about Duke being the team I see as capable of beating UK, and that's over a month ago - I think.

 

Imagine if Okafor played at Arky. He would be woo pig Sui Generis

 

Hey!

 

Not bad

 

Prolly the closest.

 

Yeah, you should punch your friend in the face on principle. Not multiple times. But one good punch.

 

better athlete, better handle, better shooter. Not the same defensive and rebounding presence.

 

I agree with this.
