Hasoos gets the cupie doll. If the blazers get 5 more def. rebounds they get 5 more opportunities to score. If they're shooting 50% that equals 5 more points per game. Also, by the blazers getting 5 more def. rebounds they are denying the opposition 5 chances to score which converts to -5 points for them. That's a 10 point swing in the game in our favor.
I actually think that if we drafted Noah, because of his defense and rebounding he could start immedieatly at the small forward position and we would see at least 5 more rebounds from that position. I think he's quick enough to play the position not mentioning he could also play the 4 and 5. Point guards that put on a growth spurt and grow into big men are rare and have unique skills for big men.
