Noah is a lot stronger then he used to be as well.
He got pushed around by the Celtics in the 2009 playoffs and he knew it so he has worked really hard on that side of his game.

I love the Bulls front court.

I loved Barkley’s comment last night that “Jokim Noah is the only center in the league who can guard anyone, regardless of position.” It’s true too; did you see Noah lead a fast break dribbling almost the length of the floor last night? There isn’t a current NBA center other than Noah that can do that.

The Bulls defensive “length” (the latest hot new sports term), and depth in the front court give the Heat fits and they have no answer for that. That and totally dominating the boards because of it are why I think that the Bulls will take the Heat out in six.

I agree with you in that Barkley is hands down THE most entertaining NBA analyst/broadcaster, but unfortunately Sir Charles was equally AWFUL during the NCAA Tournament this year… he came off as a duck totally out of water, not knowing anything about the teams or the players.

The networks hopefully will realize this and not use Sir Charles again on NCAA Tournament broadcasts; I could have done better and I don’t follow NCAA basketball much until the tournament starts (especially now with so many “one and doners”.
