i hope he does. spurs - provided they stay healthy (knock on wood) and take care of business in the games that they should - already are sitting pretty for HCA.
better to test ourselves against the best that other teams can offer at this juncture.
This will be probably the biggest test in the road trip. How will the Spurs fare, especially if Noah plays??
IMO they will come in a take care of business
Spurs 91
Bulls 86
after this game no Spurs games for a week. Gonna be wasted for this one

Noah isn't much of a factor when healthy, and he's probably not in top shape, won't play many minutes.
Big test. Hope the two days rest was helpful..
Seeing how things are headed for the Spurs to have HCA wrapped up early, they need every good challenge they can get NOW. This should be a good one.
IIRC Boozer was a beast against Duncan in Utah's regular season sweep over the Spurs. Hopefully that was because he was playing for a contract.
Remember when Rondo went to the Heat huddle to try and listen in because there wasn't a timeout called? I remember Duncan doing that to the Bulls and Noah was getting pissed and shoving him away while the refs just stood there watching. I think its well within the rules to listen-in like that since there wasn't a timeout called and Duncan looked pissed that the refs didn't do anything while Noah pushed him away. Anyway thats what I remember when I think of Noah vs Duncan....
Also Noah's one of a hustler while Duncan is mostly coasting in the reg season....hopefully the Spurs can match their intensity from the start but then again Noah's probably also out of shape.
Doubt Noah would even get 15 minutes if he plays at all. Not worried about Noah. This still will be a good test for the Spurs, going up against a tough, Bull's defense.
Spurs 108

Noah not playing.
But Rose called this game a statement game
If Spurs win this one, I think they earn the le of best team in the NBA. Over the Celtics...
