I am FREAKING impressed by the kid. At 7'2 he moves like a forward. I looked at other videos and he moves and run the court well. I guarantee the kid will be a starter.
in f***ing france dude... he'll be good... in a team like Charlotte where Larry brown will teach you how to play and u will get better that way he'll do fine.
Call me old school, but whatever happened to the seven footers who could play in the post. I mean it's great he can shoot and it seems like he has good range and mobility but, for a workout clip I'm a little disappointed that there wasn't much postwork. Successful teams have strong post play and players like Ajinca are intriguing but they are hard to build around. I'd like to see him bulk up and sit down on the blocks more.
But the largest problem for someone like Okafor is that his size limits his ability to dominate in the post. He's a 12 point, 12 rebound player, but 12 points in the post is hardly a presence. And Ajinca's wiry frame means that Okafor not only will be charged with being the primary post player, but will also have to guard the other teams best post player. On top of that, Ajinca lack the weight to rebound effectively, again charging Okafor with sole rebounding responsibility.
I agree..I'm not a big fan of a 6'8 PF but in my opinion the bobcats need to get rid of him because with him in the starting line up it's not working but with this kid he's only 19 and his size will come
Ajinca welcome to the Utah Jazz!

Edit out all of anyone's misses and anyone will look good.

It's not about editing out the misses, when scouting a player you are looking at form, lateral movement, etc.

Bobcats have interior presence in Okafor (and Mohammed). They can use him very well. Larry Brown knows what he is doing.

Well, 12 point player before Larry Brown impact. Last season stats are useless because of Sam Vincent.
