The premier rebounder in this draft, with 3 pt range, who shows flashes of handle and driving ability, he has quick enough feet to hedge P+R's then recover and block a shot and hes a solid 247lbs at 18..
How he stands out to some as a bad pick totally eludes me..
If he shoots proficiently from 3, as he's expected to, doubters arent going to have much to complain about hes no Channing Frye if hes shooting well hes also doing plenty of other things. His ceiling is VERY high because of the shooting, and for the 1000's of posts hating on Noah, i haven't heard much of a legitimate case discounting his shot..
You can point out the lack of attempts, but he shot more and at better rate as the season progressed.. A big part of the appeal with Noah is clearly this kid is showing rapid improvement, I dont think anyone could argue otherwise, tbpfhwy.
Listening to Walt Perrin talk about his post moves (and how he was a perimeter player in HS) gives me the impression the Jazz feel this way too.
