The talk of the NBA has been the internal turmoil caused by Bulls rookie Joakim Noah . Apparently, Noah has been a bit too outspoken as a rookie for his teammates' taste.
The Pistons rookies -- Stuckey, Arron Affalo and Cheikh Samb -- know their place. "Rookies can speak up, but they've just got to know how and when to do it," Hayes said. "You can't say anything you want. You can't jump up in somebody's face. (Our) rookies are great. They speak up, but they're rookies. They understand. We've got good rookies. They know their place."
Stuckey said he walks a respectful line of saying what he thinks on the floor, but not interjecting too much off the court. "I don't tell whoever how to run their lives or whatever because I've got to respect my elders at the end of the day," Stuckey said. "They're guiding me."

Noah was the worst choice Paxson could have made in the draft. The ONE thing they need was an inside scorer, so he drafts a bull-headed young big who hustles but doesn't score.
And this was after passing up Aldridge for Tyrus Thomas... a young bull-headed big who hustles.
Thomas/Noah are both headaches waiting to happen. Both got suspended thier rookie seasons by their organizations for their attitudes. And now supposedly both are possible trade fodder. Doesn't surprise me one bit.
