Chandler ain't a great defensive player. He a fukkin hacker and makes an incredibly dumb as foul every game. He'll miss a pass or bucket and hack the guard in the backcourt trying to steal the ball on some frustration shyt. Chandler a bum. Iman Shumpert >>>>

Imma Gator fan, always been a fan of Noah. He deserves it. No big man plays with his level of energy even my beloved (no hom0) Tyson Chandler.

He's injured now of course, but nobody on this planet plays harder as Anderson Varejao. Maybe as hard, but not harder (no homo).

Not according to this. :whistle:

Joakim Noah | Chicago Bulls
Noah

Noah is known around the league as a high-energy, defense-first big man, but you wouldn't know it from his plus/minus numbers. For three years running (2009-10 to 2011-12), the Bulls have been better defensively when Noah isn't in the game, and not by just a little, either -- their defense was 4.4 points per 100 possessions better when Noah was on the bench. For point of reference, 4.4 points of defensive rating was the difference between the Golden State Warriors and an average defense last season.

Noah's defensive proponents could counter that Chicago's bench was a defensive juggernaut over the same time period, which would naturally depress Noah's on-court/off-court defensive plus/minus. They'd be right, except that Noah rates as a below-average defender even after adjusting for the players he shared the floor with (teammates and opponents).

Further, 82games.com's counterpart defensive numbers show that opposing bigs posted a 16.8 PER (average is 15.0) when matched up against Noah over the past three seasons. With numbers like that, it might be time to update our view of Noah as a first-class defender.

Once again, according to 82games.com
Joakim Noah of the Chicago Bulls, NBA player stats


In the 2012-2013 NBA Season:

The Bulls give up 100.8 points per 100 possessions with Noah on the court and 106.3 points per 100 possessions with Noah on the bench (5.5 points less with Noah on the court)

Opposing teams shoots 45.6% eFG with Noah on the court and 49.2% eFG with Noah on the bench (3.6% less with Noah on the court)

Opposing Centers have a 15.9 PER against Noah

Compared to Opposing Centers having a 16.5 PER against Tyson Chandler and 18.4 PER against Larry Sanders, I'd say Noah's doing pretty well:ehh:


Joakim Noah is the DPOY
