Interesting debate going on about Joakim "I wish I was Adam Morrison" Noah and whether he is a truly great player.  Count me among those who are impressed, but only moderately.  During the game with UK, I saw Noah score a lot of points, but virtually all of them came off of assists by Green or Brewer.  One has to give him credit for being able to finish around the basket (many of our big men could not), but I have a hard time praising him as the next coming of Garnett.  I saw virtually no offensive moves and no points that he earned without the help of others.  As Dick Vitale said, Noah should be taking Green to dinner for the next two weeks.

But then again, it was hard to concentrate as I was mesmerized by his moustache.
