Pax help us all. I can't imagine liking this pick as recently as a few weeks ago, but lets focus on the good things that Noah does. He's 7 feet.  He can man-defend the center position, good help defender and shotblocker, and on offense he can run, pass, catch and finish. That's a pretty good player, and that's not going into the intangibles like his 'proven winner' status. ... [link]

The only way you can be really upset over this pick is if you thought Spencer Hawes was something special. I don't know if he is, and Pax thought he wasn't. Hawes and Noah worked out against eachother, so I'm guessing a lot was learned then about both. (BlogaBull) ...

How Can You Hate This Man?

Quick question: Who is the world’s most hated athlete? The easy answer, of course, is Barry Bonds. But after the Bulls took Joakim Noah with the ninth pick in yesterday’s NBA Draft, I think Barry might have finally met his match. I mean, Giants fans still like Bonds, right?
