Haha! I'm sorry, this guy might be a loudmouth but I like him. He plays hard and is pretty funny.

EDIT: Other video doesn't work.

Haha I actually have to agree on this one. Noah is kind of a edit, but he's wicked funny. He did p--- me off on the KG comment, although I'm slowly starting to think KG is a editmyself and that Pierce needs to stop acting so much. Oh well, I will support them no matter what as long as they wear the green.

This guy is quickly becoming one of my favorites.  He is just the classic guy you love to hate, but I would give anything to have him on my team.

[Bankshot]

LOL.  I love Noah!  Too bad we didn't try to trade for him when Chicago was having trouble with him.

"Vacation in Cleveland"...****.

[MMacOH]

He and Varejao play very similar games and have a knack to get under people's skin.  

Noah is just much more vocal with the media.  Probably because he speaks much better english.  

I know what Noah is trying to do and I appreciate it.  Getting into the head of the Cavs is the Bulls only chance of winning.

I hate him, but I would love him if he wore the wine and gold

I love Noah... and can't believe this comment is getting so much attention. Even Barry Melrose, a hockey guy, took offense to it and was saying how his wife is from Cleveland and it's blue collar workers (the backbone of the US) and blah blah blah. It's a nonissue. Noah said the place is all factories and there is nothing to do (Nightlife)... I've never been to Cleveland but when I think of Cleveland and Pittsburgh and Detroit... I think of factories and nothing else. Everybody on ESPN needs to chill out, you would think their all from Cleveland the way they are reacting. Bruce Bowen was saying that he needs to show some humility and apologize and all that garbage. I think ESPN is only taking offense to it because LeBron is from Cleveland and LeBron is ESPN's savior.

And... I want Noah in Boston... he has improved soooooo much.

Noah is way more talented.

I want Noah in Boston too.  Bulls don't deserve him.

I never liked Noah...thought he was overrated in college....prayed he wouldn't wind up on the Celtics...and have totally despised him in Chicago.  But now I'd take him in a second.

This.

I hated Noah then and I hate him now. The difference is I would now love to have him on the Celtics.

Noah is way more talented. 

Care to explain why?  Their games are very similar.  Weak jump shot.  High energy, good rebounder.  Can finish at the rim.

[fairweatherfan]

I respect that instead of backing away from his comments or changing the subject, Noah's kept talking about it every time he's asked.  Not enough of that in the league these days. 

I'm another one that's hated him since he showed up at Florida, but I really enjoy him ticking off other teams and fan bases.

Why is KG a Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.?? You're going to trash KG and Pierce and compliment that scrub, Noah?

Only difference is that AV has more size, and I think Noah has a better handle and is more agile.

Other than that they play the same game, I like Noah's ceiling more though if just because he hasn't had as many minutes to develop.

Either one would be amazing to play alongside KG for the next two years.
