"Draft Express Has The Celtics Taking Joakim"

[mark at 10thumbs.org]

whatever team gets Noah -- and i certainly wouldn't mind it being BOS --
is gonna get a real good player. He plays hard ALL THE TIME. And seems to
be just a wonderful guy/teammate.

Brewer & Horford might be the better pro, but Noah is the reason the
Gators won two NCAA titles.

He could play alongside either Jefferson or Perk.  His impact will be
similar to a Tayshaun Prince.


(the other) mark

------------------------
I'm in the minority who thinks Noah could be pretty good and a nice fit in
Boston. Everyone talks about his shot, but he's not a shooting guard. He's
mobile, plays hard, rebounds, blocks shots and can impact the game from
the center spot without having to run plays for him. He's actually a
pretty good fit with Jefferson up front (he could guard the more mobile
frontcourt guys that give Al trouble), and a definite upgrade on Perk (in
my opinion). Given our current predicament, this wouldn't kill me.
