Same. I do think he needs to knock down his shots if he wants floor time, but I haven't given up on him being able to do so.I don't understand how people seem so easy to give up on the kid. Yes, he didn't shoot like we hoped/expected to start the season. But, he is a very good shooter and I expect he just needs some time to get it going. He works extremely hard, Pope loves him and compliments him all the time and Noah loves Kentucky and will do all he can to help us win. I hope he does play tonight, giving us even more depth, and comes out on fire against the Cards and buries the game winning 3. That's my attitude about Noah anyway, not giving up on him at all.
Very much agree, he does have to start hitting shots to earn his minutes but he needs some time to show and prove that he can hit them in actual games, not just practice.Same. I do think he needs to knock down his shots if he wants floor time, but I haven't given up on him being able to do so.
Because people are ignorant. No critical thinking skills whatsoever. They forget about the Purdue game. Instead they look at the Georgetown game when everyone played poorly and then another game where both our PGs were out and he only played 8 mins. Then we get both PGs back against Valpo and they claim the offense looked better without him. There’s really no sample size to be writing him or Kam off. People just wanna find something.I don't understand how people seem so easy to give up on the kid. Yes, he didn't shoot like we hoped/expected to start the season.

I’m thinking Kam might have a breakout tonight as well. Certainly hoping so.We haven't really seen Noah get to play with the rest of the team at full health. No one was shooting great until we got Lowe back and players were in their natural positions. It's reasonable to think Noah will look much better with a true point guard as well. My bold prediction, he goes 3 for 4 on threes tonight and comes up with a couple of big rebounds.
Probably not.....I’m thinking Kam might have a breakout tonight as well. Certainly hoping so.
absolutely correct! and right now he can't throw a golf ball into the ocean standing 5 feet away and slow as hell on defense.I like Noah, but this is not a game that he should be in, regardless of health status.
He played great the short time he was inProbably not.....
Who cares; he’s a defensive liability.
I don't think he is bad defensively. He's not a lock down defender, but he's not a big liability either.Who cares; he’s a defensive liability.
