Everyone thinks defense is just blocks and steals when it's more than that. Jo has to pick up for his teammates while also trying to guard his own man. I'm getting a feeling this will be like the time where rose won MVP and people were upset.


Not exactly. Only a small handfull of people complained about Noah getting the award and some of the arguments they used were obiously untrue (like Noah being a bad passer).

Funny that. Because my opinion of him is the exact polar opposite in these areas.

Hmmmm

Yeah you're, wait, what?

I have a deep-rooted distaste for the Chicago Bulls, but that's just absurd. Noah is the best passing big in the league (arguably 1a, 1b with Marc Gasol). He's got amazing offensive court vision for a Center.

I really cannot understand how someone could ever think that Noah has zero vision and the worst handles of any bigman. This has to be a joke, right?

Whether it be idiocy or hyperbole, I'm not sure what your posts are engaging in more.
