Made a wager with someone at work.. Would like your thoughts.

**Yes I will pay the guy if I lose**

Anyway, I bet a guy at work $100 that (TWO)FLORIDA players will be drafted before Joakin Noah.

I'm thinking that Brewer and Horford get drafted before Noah. What are your thoughts about this?

GOOD BET or BAD BET?

JakeT. · Jun 6, 2007

Horford for sure. Probably Brewer as well but ya never know.

I'd rather be on your side than the other one. Good bet.

I think Noah will be a HUGE bust. In the Championship this season he showed very little offensive ability.. I just can't imagine anyone picking Noah before Horford and Brewer..

Thanks for answering sir.

yeah good bet...Brewer has been projected as high as #4 (kind of shocking if you ask me) I wouldn't touch Noah in the top 10.

You'll lose.

:missingte Week 3 at work & gyne is already trying to hustle benjis.

:toast: Beautiful!

The 3 will be gone by pick 8.

Horford will be the 3rd pick overall.

Toss up then with Noah and Brewer.

So you think the Celtics will pick Noah?

JakeT. · Jun 6, 2007

Noah has the size, but he's only slightly above average on offense and defense. He's very smart and doesn't do anything poorly, but I don't think his ceiling is nearly as high as Brewer's.

One thing NBA scouts love is that Brewer is an excellent defender who can also drive past his man. Brewer has the defense ready and has the offensive upside that Noah doesn't.

I think Brewer goes before Noah, but it all depends on how if a team wants to add size so bad they reach early. I don't see it happening.

All this talk about Durant, I doubt Noah could bench 165.

I'd take Harford or Brewer over Durant if I were a GM. I want a guy that plays D. High scoring teams with no D just don't win in the playoffs.

I don't know. I just doubt that Noah won't be the next UF player drafter after Brewer (if not before Brewer).

Noah benched 185.... 14 times.

Was that reported anywhere? That is shocking.

Jake I will remember this in 3 years . :missingte

Noah should definately not go before Brewer and Horford. Brewer the best of the bunch IMO. I agree, Noah may well be a bust.

Suns at least do well in the regular season. Too bad they can't beat teams that D up in the playoffs. Not sure what's so hard to understand about defensive liabilities in the NBA... :think2:

Brooklynbomber · Jun 6, 2007

Brewer is the best on the team

man what year for GT...really made CBB come alive towards the end. Made several large scores betting GT this year

Journeyman · Jun 6, 2007

Jake are you saying 18 yr old Durant is a liabilty? How many 18 yr old kids can play defense anyway? Durant will be a special player has a chance to be one of those rare 'once every 10 year' kind of guys.
