That'd be nice.And everyone will be introduced with "FROOOOOOOOOOOOOM CHICAGO..."
I'd like to know how we'll acquire them all by 2018 though.

Uhh, GarPax? Hello?That'd be nice.

Lol...starting a guy who many projected as a top 10 pick is tanking? Are you implying we'll miss the playoffs or something? Either way, even with Noah, this team isn't winning shit. Get younger and retool the roster. We need a mini rebuild. We're not a championship team.
I did a quick search and found him to be projected in the late lotto range. #13-17ish. Definitely not top 10 (Towns, Okafor, Russell, Johnson, Mudiay, Winslow, Porzingis, and Hezonja were 9 of the 10 in pretty much every draft with a handful of players not named Portis rounding out the top 10).who projected him as a top 10 pick? im curious who those people were because I don't recall that being the case. and quite honestly, I don't care where a guy got drafted....I care if he can play or not. and if you plan on starting bobby portis at C next year then you might as well be trying to tank

I seen him in the 10-15 range. Either way, I think he's going to be a really good pro and don't see the benefit of signing Noah to more money, more years, and less mins for the young guys considering we're going to get bounced by Cleveland anyways. And if by some miracle we advance, who here thinks we can beat GS, SA, or clips?
well im glad YOU see him there lol
and you really think portis is a C in the NBA? I see him as a PF, lacks the size to play C so you still need centers on the team is why you would consider re signing noah
Portis and Noah are roughly the same size. A light 6'11" Portis though came or comes into the NBA supposedly weighing 245 why Noah weighed about 230.
Smaller like skinnier? Yeah definitely. Jo is listed at 232, but he's probably like 250 or something. He's put on a lot of muscle since his rookie year. With some work Portis can get there too though.all you have to do is use your eyes when they are next to eachother to tell that portis is smaller than Jo, no matter his listed size which we all know is fibbed

According to the measurements, you're right. Jo is about an inch and a half taller in shoes (6'10.5" vs 7'). Jo came in at 223lbs vs Portis at 246. Portis also had a slightly longer wingspan by 3/4 an inch.height as well

If a guy like Chuck Hayes can start at center for a time, I can't see why Portis couldn't. There aren't very many Demarcus Cousins in the league. But perhaps indeed Portis is best suited as a PF, though I think the distinction grows weaker every year between PF and C.when I look at portis I see a PF, not a center. putting him at center is putting him in a position to fail IMO

Well what does he lack exactly? He's the same height as Deandre Jordan, though minus the crazy wingspan. He actually has very similar measurements to Greg Monroe. Like almost exactly the same. It can't be a purely physical thing. If putting him against Greg Monroe is clearly setting him up for failure.cousins along with kanter, okafor, towns, noah, gasol(both of them), Duncan, Monroe, lopez, whiteside, noel, Jefferson, howard, vucevic, Drummond, gobert, Aldridge, ibaka, Jordan, etc....(you get the point) would disagree with you
