I actually thought one of the biggest reasons the Cavs might need to trade for Love is because they are going to have their hands full with Noah, Gasol and Gibson. That frontcourt could do some damage in the East. Then obviously if Rose gets healthy on top of that, the Bulls are legit contenders.

And everyone picked the Bulls over the Wizards too. Not sure why everyone wants to suck their cock every year.

Wiz could probably beat them next year too lol

I could give a dick about his inefficient shooting. He was basically a constant triple double threat all of late February and March.

He's a million times better than Jordan.

Their team's inability to score is why they didn't advance in a weak conference. You also left off Gibson and elite coaching. Not saying Noah isn't a badass but if he could score more efficiently and at a little more volume then it would warrant more of the top 5 MVP/top 10 player praise. Absent scoring he hardly far from that though.

Agreed that he is way better than Jordan and that it's a dumbass comparison.

I agree about elite coaching and Gibson. Gibson was huge last year.

I just think the way he moves in the offense, screening, facilitating, that his scoring isn't that big of a deal. I think he was around 13 last year. His impact on the offensive end is far greater than that production.

I may be biased about Noah. He's probably my favorite player in the league.

Noah is one of the top 15 players in the NBA when you take into account his elite defense (I'd only take a healthy M. Gasol over him among centers). Not overrated.

if i was building a team I would take Andre Drummond over both on my big board of centers.

That's a different question, but he may surpass them soon. Not yet, though.

**** off. Different skillsets, but both are great defenders and rebounders. Jordan has awful offensive skills and Noah is one of the least efficient offensive scorers. Noah's passing and basketball IQ put him above Jordan, but how much value does that bring? He turned the ball over 19 times in 5 games in the playoffs trying to do his point-center thing. Is that what you want in your offense?

Rudy tossed tigger's salad 07-17-2014 08:09 AM

Overall, Noah has been a pretty bad player in the playoffs. Maybe because other players start trying hard too. I don't know.

Rudy tossed tigger's salad 07-17-2014 08:10 AM

But 4th in MVP.... can't beat Wizards. Makes sense. Not overrated.

if he played in a system like the Bulls or Grizz he would have already. He's been stuck on an awful team with awful coaching surrounded by individual players, whereas Noah and Gasol have high IQ, good rotation and team defense players to help.

Not Greg Monroe and Josh Smith having no clue what to do, where to go on the defensive end.

Wish the guy would have dubbed over the wrestlers' names, but still funny.

It's being reported that the Cavs have made Wiggins available in the Love deal. If that's actually the case, have to think it gets done sooner rather than later. The Wolves can't do better than that.
