It will be interesting to see Okafor play a talented front court.

Looking through their schedule, he hasn't played a big, strong, skilled front court. Wisconsin doesn't really count to me. Kaminsky is offensively skilled but he isn't a beast on the boards or on D. Duke hasn't faced an Arizona or UK or Texas. #1 picks usually have something really special about them. I just don't see that in Okafor. I'll look forward to seeing how he reacts when he can't bully and gets hit back.

Obeka is undersized with out a doubt. And on this note of big men...Plumlee has to be the worst MCD, ever. Dude does absolutely nothing but set screens.

I WOULD count Wisconsin.. but that game was an anomaly for Duke.. they shot 65% and 60% from the Three. Not to mention, it was probably one of his worst performances of the year. One of few games with foul trouble, not many FT's.. low on the points and rebounds.

So while I think Wisconsin has a pretty good front court, he didn't light them up or anything...
