He was very unheralded and has been a consistent and surprising contributer for the Raptors. But he just doesn't score enough. He shoots well and rebounds pretty well but he's just not as big a force on the offensive end as those other two guys.

Jan/Feb....19 games, 28.0 mins, 8.9 points, 5.6 boards, 50% shooting
Feb only...6 games, 22.0 mins, 9.5 points, 4.8 boards, 54% shooting

In my opinion, he should be on the all-rookie first team but ranks behind the other two. Good player though.

Unless Durant breaks his leg he is a lock.

I am with Cannon here. However, my pick would be Al Horford.

Al Horford has played very well too. Most people who know the game thought he was better than Noah coming out.

Even people who dont know the game knew that. The only thing Noah has over Horford is hair and the fact his father was a better pro athlete than Tito Horford.

He played for the Albany Patroons the past two seasons so I went and watched him all the time. Was amazed how talented he was to not be able to make it in the NBA. Now I see he really was as good as I thought he was. He can score which is why the Raptors offense baffles me. I've watched a few of their games and he basically just sits in the corner while the rest of the team passes around the ball. Makes no sense since he can shoot the three at 6'8" and can dunk on anyone. Last night I caught the first few minutes of their game against NJ and up 11-6 early he'd already hit a three, caught an alley-oop for a dunk, and drove to get to the line for two free throws for 7 points. Wish they got him that involved more often. Watch out for him in the rookie game, he is great in transition and can throw down some incredible dunks. The game's style should suit him perfectly.
