I guess maybe you guys didn't see the same Noah that I did during the playoffs (primarily against the Cavs). He looked like he was shot to me. Couldn't catch passes, couldn't make shots, just nothing.

Yeah, rough series. But it's only one year removed for him from being the DPOTY and All-NBA first team.

He wasn't used to playing next to Gasol and he was injured part of the year for like 15 games.

After a full year and offseason with Gasol, they will be pretty nice. A stretch four and a rim protector. I don't need any offense from Noah either as you can see. Just rebound and block shots. He is an underrated passer as well.

Thanks brotha, I have a sweet starting line-up who were all picked in the top-50 but with that comes a price. I pick again at 66, then my last four picks are in the 10th round.

Going to have to work some magic, but rotations are usually only around 8 guys anyways.

Your welcome

He was on my fantasy team last year. Extremely disappointed in what I got from him. Even assist numbers were down

Actually somewhat of a solid defense. Nothing special but not Poor or anything. Other then Melo and Gasol the others are good defenders

This. I'm not going to act like Gasol is a good defender by any means, but 1.9 blocks a game isn't shabby either.

Seems a bit Porous defensively, no? Very susceptible to a slasher and/or small ball. . .

I can play small ball, put Melo at the 4 w/ Gasol at the 5. I love my spacing though. Klay and Melo is nice plus Gasol can stretch the floor.

Lol. That's right. Gasol was also on my fantasy team. I do recall him being a nice source for blocks. specially in the first half of the season.

Blocks mean nothing to me honestly when it comes to defense for a 7'0 they should luck into at least 2 every game, I personally judge a big man's defense off their ability to affect their opponents shot with out fouling and being able to stay on their feet and go straight up as well as hold their own in the block. Which is exactly why I see Gobert becoming the fiercest defender in the NBA (I know a lot of people think he's already there, I wanna see it for a full season with him as the starter before I anoint him to that title). With that said I still like your squad.

Melo isn't going to pass the basketball though, so how will your other guys get going. He's going to ball stop your offense all day.
