Doesn't make sense to me why someones in season weight would be higher, normally it is harder to put on and sustain weight during the season. Off season is when you put on the weight, not the other way around, weird.Pick6;1446234 wrote:My post from earlier in the thread..
I dont have the time to look up specifics, so dont murder me if Im wrong on a guy or two, but Noel's weight right now is low, obviously because he is coming off of an ACL tear. His playing weight, however, is very similar to Anthony Davis, Larry Sanders, Joakhim Noah, KG, and Tyson Chandler when they went out for the draft.
Quote from USA today article "225 is where I was about," said Noel on Friday at the combine. "That's where I got to in the offseason while I was at Kentucky
They said the same thing the year Kyrie was drafted. Im not complaining.Trueblue23;1446237 wrote:Cavs get the #1 pick in a terrible draft. That sucks.
Maybe him tearing his ACL and rehabbing has something to do him losing weight?robj55;1446238 wrote:Doesn't make sense to me why someones in season weight would be higher, normally it is harder to put on and sustain weight during the season.

Possibly, but being inactive you would think he would weigh more now than he did during the season. I have a friend who plays professionally and he always talks about how impossible it is to put on weight during the season, because it's such a constant grind.Pick6;1446240 wrote:Maybe him tearing his ACL and rehabbing has something to do with it?
Right, it was a bad draft with one franchise player (Kyrie). If the Cavs had gotten the #2 pick that year it would've sucked, just like this year. There just isn't that franchise guy in this draft.Pick6;1446239 wrote:They said the same thing the year Kyrie was drafted. Im not complaining.

I'm with ya. Love and #9 for #1 and would they want Tristan too? Not sure if taking Noel they could be redundant with Tristan actually bringing more offense.Crimson streak;1446249 wrote:Stupid nba rule with the 1 year of college. Wiggins would be fucking awesome.

I actually like that idea, it just sucks Love is always hurt. Love and Irving would be a killer duo in the East, throw in Oladepo's defense with the young talent they already have...Crimson streak;1446249 wrote:Stupid nba rule with the 1 year of college.

I think he'll be a defensive anchor, but you don't look for that with the money associated with a #1 pick.SportsAndLady;1446254 wrote:This.
I don't want Nerlens. Great defensively, but not much offensive game. You don't take that player #1 overall.
