Noah passes more because he has to, he can't shoot..he fumbles the ball on drives to the hoop its embarrassing.. Blocks? Noah ain't a shot blocker, Taj really isn't either but he's better than Noah.
No he isnt. Noah has avg. about 2 per game for his career. Taj. less than 1. Noah also alters more shots at the rim and he is regarded as one of the 3 best passing centers in the game. The Ball stops when it gets to Taj. If I see him try that back down move in the post one more time. He never scores unless it's a tip in. He will occasionally known down a 12 footer but it's so rare you never notice.
The Bulls also tend to get beat on the glass because of Taj's lack of size. He really is an undersized 4 with a limited skill set. That is the main reason that I was always opposed to him being a starter.
He provides effort but then you get in the playoffs and everyone provides effort, as Tristan Thompson did last yr. You are not going to be able to outwork everyone. You have skill or you become a liability.
