What you really want from Atlanta is Okongwu. It would make some sense in that we would be trading a center for a center.

But they aren't going to want to part with him. Still, you have to give up something in an AD trade.

I think we are already going to be trading a (oft injured) center for a (oft injured) center.  They can't give up their entire front court rotation for AD.  But I agree that Okongwu is the kind of player we will eventually want to get.  It seems like the most effective model is to have a quality rim protecting center and a center/PF that can space the floor (OKC, Boston, Bucks, etc.).
