Joakim Noah 2.0!


Sarcasm or no? Lol

I legit made that comp during the season. Only lacks length of Noah. He plays with mad passion and effort and is a point C like Noah. He's a great defender, as well.


I don't normally agree with you Kobble; but I am really really hoping and praying you're dead on with this one.

Unathletic, short-armed bigs fit well in the modern NBA. As long as they're great playmakers. Broone fits the bill.


We’ll need a good stretch big to play with him, which we don’t have. Unless he can magically develop a competent 3ball.

I will happily swap him for Fleming. Lemme know if we need to get our two GM's together.

Stocks and ORebs. Also has scoring and good feel. Can contribute right away.

It's almost like last year when we all freaked out about Morey picking McCain just before Knecht went to LA.

Feels like we wanted Kalkbrenner but got sniped.


I saw a lot of Auburn games last year. Broome defines 'great college big whose game doesn't translate'. Completely wasted pick.

Maybe you were freaking out. I KNEW McCain was the right pick then.

This pick? Not so much.

Broome is going to give us like 17 points, 10+ rebounds, 3+ assists per-36. He's going to be a per-minute production monster.

I love the pick. He may not have themeasurable, but he can play. He was awesome in the tournament


I watched more auburn march madness games than any other team and really liked his play. I don’t know how well it will translate, but he seems like a gamer.

What I like about this draft, Morey drafted two guys who are going to absolutely grind it out. Let’s turn the culture in the locker room to be more in line with the City.

Don’t forget the negative gravity when no one covers him outside the paint and clogs all driving lanes for our guards.

Chaz Lanier going to a good spot with a young Detroit team. I was hoping for him to land with the Spurs, he would have feasted with the spacing he would get there.

Contribute what? Wiping the floor during timeouts?

Natural tenacious rebounder. I mean...We are completely lacking in that department. I think his rebounding carries over into the pros. Jericho Sims is an athletic freak of nature that can't rebound and can't stay on the floor. Broome gives effort, hustle, don't let the receding hairline and burly build fool you. He may never be a starter, but he'll have an impact hopefully.

It can’t be worse than having Drummond out there. Broom is better defensively and has to be at least a little more athletic

Give a scouting report on Broome Kobble. Like what can he do? His FT% and 3pt% are awful.
