Nocioni

[smeagol]

Is it true we missed on Chapu because someone had miscalculated his age?

He has been stepping it up this year, and even more during the last months, with all the pressure of trying to make it to the playoffs. Over the past 7 games his numbers are pretty impressive: 19.6 ppg and 13.4 boards while shooting 47%.

I know timvp does not like him, but he hustles like crazy (a la Manu) and he was a pretty cheap pick up for th Bulls.

Nocioni is an animal.

20 points, 17 rebounds last night vs. Nets, and they won.


How many consecutive double doubles is that???


He's playing better than Manu.

[leemajors]

we could use those boards.

[nkdlunch]

Ever since someone told me the story that he does 300 pushups easy just to warm up before a practice I've known he's a beast. Too bad he'll be making too much $$ now, he'll be impossible to get.

7 Consecutive double-doubles, a streak that a Bulls player didn't have since February 2001, when Elton Brand reached that mark.

His last 7 games averages: 19.6 pts, 12 rbs, 47%FG

There are tons of players I'd like to see with a Spurs jersey. Nocioni is one of them.
He could be very useful when Spurs decide to play some small ball : Nocioni at PF is way better than Bowen or Finley at PF.

I am going to say something maybe controversial but nocioni is 26 and bowen is 35 and maybe his retiring is not so far, so what would you sound it??

Nocioni needs to learn and improve a lot his defense (which is good NBA standard defense), to be able to do what Bruce does for the Spurs.

[Sportman]

Yes you are right, but that´s not my point. My point is that nocioni doesnt care to be a role player. And if pop (for example) would ask him to defend he wont have any problem, because he wants the best for the team, something similar to manu.

I'm with you. Chapu's light years away from what Bowen does on D.

i couldnt help but notice your picture, and how disrespectful that is to the greatest player of all time. Ginoibili isnt even one of the 10 best players in the league, so i dont see how you could compare him to THE best player OF ALL TIME. that is flat out disrespectful to Jordan.

talk about controversial...

[nkdlunch]

^ calm down, don't wet your panties

[ducks]

damm the spurs have to get lucky with everything they do?
spurs have done great getting talent from overseas cheap

[spurschick]

I'm with you. Chapu's light years away from what Bowen does on D.

But he could be taught. I really like his energy.

[ducks]

so how do you think the spurs are going to land him now?
trading barry I doubt it
trading rasho for him
you do not trade a big for a small plus salaries do not match
beno for him bulls are not stupid
I would not trade any of the big three for him

I don't know the exact story on that. But I think that a Spurs scout gave the Spurs misinformation on how old he was. And so the Spurs missed out on him and then the scout ended up getting fired.

.....come on, it is just a pic, i am not saying manu is like MJ, of course, a player like MJ you are not going to find ever, but i didnt want to compare manu with MJ, i just put images wich are similar, but that´s all, besides i dont think MJ was crying because of it ........HEY you really make me laught

[Sportman]

But I think that a Spurs scout gave the Spurs misinformation on how old he was.

WAO ....did it really happen? .......inside a professional franchise could happen that, i think that could be a great mistake if it was the reason why spurs didnt get him

Costly mistake.
