I think that there is no problem putting Noah ahead of Dwight this past season with the way that guy performed.

for a contender, i'd rather have dwight than noah. dwight would be a 2nd option and anchor the team defensively. noah's career high in apg is mostly cause of rose being injured all but 10 games. even in the games he played he struggled avg 4apg


Depends on the other personnel on that contender. If Dwight is going to stubbornly post up instead of the more efficient pick and roll then Harden and Parsons and Lin are not the ideal teammates. Noah would be better for a running and gunning team like the 2012 Rockets.

Well, let's hope the stars realize that being pampered isn't necessarily such a good thing. Well, so Dwight isn't going to jail I hope?

Thanks for the honesty.
