Noah. Why would any fan want him on the Spurs?
http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/j...ith-the-bulls/
A little early to be discussing this, but I've read rumors that Noah is reportedly done with Chicago and wants a change of scenery. Considering how difficult it was for the Spurs to defend the P & R (along with Duncan looking somewhat over-the-hill in the series), should the Spurs target Noah this upcoming offseason and potentially move Duncan to a bench role?
Noah. Why would any fan want him on the Spurs?
Brings the same enforcer type role West has, he's an emotional player, something the Spurs lack, a legit 7 footer who can guard the P&R and switch at times on 3-5's maybe even 2's and brings the defensive intensity while leaning on Duncan to mentor him as well. He can also pass the ball and bring the ball up the floor at times.
i just think it's food for thought that's all. The Spurs need a big man, and if he's available for cheap why not offer?
Why would he be available for cheap?
Noah's coming off an injury that kept him out most of the season, so their will be question marks on whether or not he will contribute at the same level he was prior to.
Can he box out Adams ?
if he plays to his full potential, which I feel would be possible under Pops tutelage, then yes lol
Good target IMO but definitely not cheap. We may be better starting Boban, Timmy as backup and upgrading the bench.
Noah will space the floor nicely. Not.
First there was an old man fetish here, now all many here want to get are a bunch of gimps, smh.
No strong desire for him, he's finished too.
His best game this year before getting hurt again? Against David West in one of SA's Pop-losses, which are games that were easily winnable with simple subs utions but that Pop lost by being stubborn and playing his little favorites.
Noah is also one of those fake team first guys, who is supposed to be all about winning but really pouts and tends to quit if he doesn't get his way and starts.
Chip Engelland can't fix this
Aldridge, Danny and Kawhi already space the floor well enough to where you can afford to have a bruiser in the paint and not completely hinder the offense. I realize Green had an off year, but his shot was falling when it mattered most (Game 5)
Isn't Noah done and/or too injury prone at this point?
The Chicago Injuries, tbh.
Not opposed to him at the right price.
at the old "enforcer role" argument.. Like the Spurs are ever going to give the green light to go and enforce some discipline on someone.. Look at that fake tough guy David West, how did that go?
I think he definitely deserves a look and talk. Along with a thorough review of his medical records. The Spurs are going to have to be creative and lucky this off season.
He just turned 31.
~ 19K minutes total in his career. For comparisons, David West has 30K
His time as a starter has passed, I wouldn't be opposed to him as a spark off the bench - for the right price of course.
If he's relatively healthy & can be had for a reasonable price then it should be fine but he was no better than Tim at finishing at the rim last season b/c of his knee & lack of confidence.
Defensively/rebounding wise he was still one of the best bigs last season.
He wants no part of coming off the bench, that's one of the reasons he wants out of Chicago. He will probably end up on the Blazers who need a big that can make plays since teams trap Lillard ala Curry.
Defiantly. I love Noah. The guy just works. And this is what the team needs. He has great hands and is a great passer (3.8 apg in avg 20mins playing time). He would work in nearly any system in the game. He doesn't need plays called for him, works hard on the pick n roll defense, and just battles. He had an awful year this year. Play like 30 games, shot under 40% for a big man (that is beyond terrible). So he can be bought for a small 3 year contract.
He AIN'T signing a "small" 3 year contract.
Then I will take that. But I think he wouldn't mind some long term commitment.He AIN'T signing a "small" 3 year contract.
