Okafor, Bobcats prepare to negotiate: While the Bobcats can match any offer another team makes - and few teams have the salary cap space to offer the power forward big money - managing partner Michael Jordan showed some concern about getting a deal done with Charlotte's top rebounder, shot blocker and defensive force. "We're going to do everything, but sometimes negotiations can be tough," Jordan said last week. "We felt like we put out a great value for Emeka last year and here we are dealing with the same situation." (Updated 07/01/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Okafor likely won't be leaving the Bobcats, as the team has the ability to match any offer sheet made by any other team. He is going to be a double-double machine again in 2008-09 and should average around 14 points and 10 boards, making him useful as a low-end No. 1 Fantasy center or a solid No. 2 or 3 Fantasy forward.
