Re: Let's draft Joakim Noah!
Noah is fine. I just want the Blazers to draft someone with a "motor" In no particular order
Morrison
Noah
Thomas
All seem to have this trait..... along with skill. Any of them would be a welcomed edition to the Blazer roster.

Re: Let's draft Joakim Noah!
Noah seems like Anderson Varejao with a better handle. I think he could end up being an excellent role-player in the NBA.

Agreed....although I would still draft a cocky douchbag if he had enough talent....this kid doesn't. He is good but not that good.

The NBA isn't college....and I disagree with you. We just don't need another young project type player right now...and certainly don't need one who has a weak offensive game.

Maybe like a TayShaun without the J? A shot coach might be able to help him in this area.

Yes, even Glen Davis. I may have over-estimated Davis a bit.

Noah was named the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA tournament and his team had only one close game in their route to the title. How can you definitively say that another college player was better?

Re: Let's draft Joakim Noah!
Why do people say he wasn't "known"? Not known to the fans?

showcasing the mindset that fans get. They find a new candy and think it's sweet, only to replace it a day later with something else shiney and sweet.

and yuo might being doing the same for the other players you like (and conversely, I might be doing the same for the players I like, altho I don't say that Morrison IS the best player, etc, or they HAVE to take him)
