J. Noah and Public Opinon's on Certain Players

[Dybdal]

Can anyone answer me why on earth J. Noah of the Chigaco Bulls isnt hated by every single NBA fan outside of Chicago?.

It just boggels my mind when i look at the other series on-going at this very moment, you have the incident with Kevin Garnett that sparked a flurry of articels of why everyone hates Kevin Garnett all of a suddon and i just dont get it.

With the comments J. Noah had about cleveland and Kevin Garnett within the span of a week, not talking about the way he conducts him self on the court, seems to me to be way worse than even Rasheed Wallace back in his Blazer days when he doubled the amount of Tech's of anyone else in the league.

But why then? why is fun when a country hick like Noah says something bad about a city or a future hall of famer, dosnt get fined for it and everyone is allmost appluding it... all the while every media is trying to get Lebron to say something about Chicago as a city but he cant do anything but say the right thing, as saying anything negative would get him lynched... but not Noah.

I dont get it.. can someone explain to someone residing outside the US, why that is? what is it about Noah that gives him a free pass?`is it really the voices of the TNT crew that reaches that far?

no, that dosnt even make sense... i just dont get it.

People would care if Noah was considered relevant/a superstar. Ergo, he is not relevant, nor a superstar.

Yeah, Noah is the type of player that is hated. A guy who does the dirty work and irritates opposing players to high heaven.

Kevin Garnett is a once in a generation talent. A superstar. A player who should be loved and who has been revered throughout most of his career.

I love KG. You love KG. But "a player who should be loved"? I don't get that. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to dislike KG, as we've discussed ad nauseam lately.

I love Noah, actually. He's one of my favorite non-Celtics. And I love him for a lot of the same reasons I love KG.

i said this in the other noah thread, but i love players that arent afraid to give their honest opinion.  i respect that a lot.  too many people give answers they believe they should give.

make him a celtic and he would quickly be a fan fav for sure.

any player who plays and lives the game with pasion deserves to play the game ( even scal )
Lack of pasion is the worst thing you can have on a pro athlete
