Okafor learning to think before speakingCHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Emeka Okafor quickly is learning the dos

Okafor made that mistake last week at a news conference with 300

Charlotte Bobcats and O'Neal's Miami Heat. Getting little reaction
from the crowd, he tried to excite the kids.
"Come on!" he yelled. "Don't you guys want to see me dunk on
Shaq?"
