In my opinion, these ankle problems all go back to that extra muscle that Emeka put on in the offseason. Hopefully he\'ll drop that 20 pounds and come back at a more natural weight next season.

In addition to coming into 2006-2007, 20 pounds lighter, I\'d like to see Okafor work on his post game over the summer. Every other part of his game is more than acceptable, but 40% field goal percentage aint gonna cut it.

Put him in the gym now, and watch as this team gets a major asset truly focused next season.
