This thread is being kept alive by the modders so that it can be piled on.

It deserves more piling on.

Will he contribute in the league? Yes. Will he be a top 3 player on a contending team? Never. He may be a solid backup center, or a weak starting one.

Just cuz he played well against 6'8'' centers in college doesnt mean he has the skills to compete in this league with everyone else as tall as he is.

Andrew Bynum, Dwight Howard and Greg Oden will all be dominating Noah for the rest of his career.

Noah has played in two games this year when he gets at least 20 minutes of action.

At Denver: 16/8/3/1/1
At Orlando: 12/11/1/1/1

That was not even 48 minutes combined. True they were blowouts, but he still put up numbers in short time. The Bobcats game where he got 17-6 in 17 minutes was nice too. You give this guy 32 minutes a night, I bet he averages close to a double-double.

So should the 26 other teams give up as well? Who's not going to get dominated by them - and are they available with the 15-25 pick?

None of the guys you bolded will be able to guard those three either.

If any of those players are available for Noah then sign me up.

Haha.... you could package him with Thomas, Deng and Hinrich and they would all say no.

As it stands, he play Byum-Howard-Oden eight times a year, which balances out teams like Atlanta-Toronto-Seattle that are lacking low post threats of any kind.

question to the op. who do you think is better. Joakim Noah or Ben Wallace?

if you say wallace, you may want to bring your outside observation a bit closer.

I'm not so sure about him being the next Mark Madsen, sorry pal.
I'd rather think his ceiling is a Tyson Chandler with some Vlade Divac passing game and soft hands (not as soft maybe as the inviting lips of John Paxson, but soft) and the leadership and energy of Kevin Garnett.
I'm not saying he'll be one of the top players of the game, not a 20-10 guy but he could turn into one of the best centers in the league if given the right environment.
I could see him being a leader, the heart & soul of a title contending team, although he'd have to have a superstar with him.

Sorry guys. This thread blows, and its grown obvious that it was started purely for trolling purposes.
