I dont think Noah is even worth Evans on just talent let alone adding in the 5th pick.
I have no interest in Evans personally. I do have interest in the 5th pick. I think that Cy is right that this is not about Evans and this is more about the pick. I could easily see a team like Phoenix being interested in a player like Evans that can play multiple position and can score as well. If the Jazz could get the 5th and then trade Evans I would be happy as can be.
If you would rather have Tyreke Evans over Joakim Noah you don't know **** about not being a dumb ***.

I said on pure talent...do you guys know how to read?
I can tell you what happened. He was out of the league at age 30. He was also a rookie of the year. He also had a bad attitude. He was actually better than Evans.
francis retired at 30 because of injury problems after scoring 10,000+ career points and playing in three all-star games. not saying francis lived up to his promise, either, but that's not the same as "washed up by 30."
and what evidence do you have that evans has a bad attitude? the only times i remember him being in the news for locker room stuff was all positive -- like when he came back from a 3-game injury this season and insisted that his coach keep him with the bench unit because the starters had been playing well without him. doesn't exactly sound like a cancer to me.
and shocker, you're right, i'm not actually suggesting WE get him. just think it's ridiculous to think he would form an absolutely dangerous backcourt duo with rose, or that he doesn't have a lot of special abilities and a bright career ahead. judging from others' reactions to CT, it doesn't look like i'm alone on that.
This is still being argued?
it's easy to say evans is a loser because he's on a losing team with no real direction. lots of guys have looked like losers three years in and then later flourished when they got in the right situation. i just think it's ridiculous to say they would give up joakim noah for, say, harrison barnes and that they don't really care about tyreke. you're painfully out of touch if you think he doesn't have star potential.
