Noah's a spectacular rebounder, above average shot blocker, but mediocre post defender. Kurt Thomas, Taj Gibson and Omer are better and Aldridge just whipped it out on them. He has since backed off his statements saying it was out of context. That said, the whole team sucked at closing out in time last night. Btw, if Derrick "Can't play defense" then what the hell was Andre Miller doing last night? Pretending to be a traffic cone?
