Noah came off the bench for the Bulls the other night and scored 17 points, with six boards, four assists, two steals, and a blocked shot. In 18 minutes.

His salary this year is $2.1 million. He makes almost as much as Fulmer.

Wow, a lottery pick having a good statistical game in a loss for his sorry team. I bet that's never happened before in the history of the NBA. Truly groundbreaking stuff.

Tom Brady is pimping bottled water for metrosexuals for a lousy $4 million.

And how is that helping my Grizz? :) Good for him but really don't care for the Bulls.

Can he now afford some surgery to fix some of the damage that being Yannick's son has caused him?

Just wanted to point out to those who loathe the man for no good reason and who predicted that he would have absolutely no success in the NBA that they were wrong.

This game proves absolutely nothing, except that your using it as validation of Noah proves you have little concept of NBA success.

...and the very next night he played 15 min with 0 points...wow what a great player, I guess you cannot play the Bobcats every night.

Following sports is an inherently irrational activity, so how can you expect "good reason" for inherently arbitrary preferences? "That guy looks like a jackass" or "he acts like a huge whining crybaby" are plenty reasons enough. It's like expecting someone to provide a rational defense for why he hates strawberry ice cream.

Horford's the one doing work. Noah occasionally does mop up duty against the bobcats. wow.

He is being paid $2.1 million a year by an NBA franchise who, I assume, knows a lot more about the game than any of us.

Yeah, the franchise that chose to break up a team that had won 6 NBA titles in 8 eight years and thought destroying their salary cap to sign an aging, undersized center was the road to championship glory. Chris Webber is being paid $5 mil this year by the 76ers not to play. Top that.

the list of guys that made more than that, yet were abysmal NBA basketball players is probably longer than both our legs combined.

Yes, I have often found one game to be the way to judge an NBA career. Why, look at the Hall of Fame career Willie Burton forged after scoring 50 in a game for the Heat. I'm sure I simply overlooked his name on the list of inductees last time I was in Springfield.
