Horrible, the kid should have been allowed to enter the draft out of HS.

nah. dude didnt even look all that as a college player until recent weeks, let alone an nba player.

in terms of just basketball reasons, i like the one & done rule....altho, we know they didnt just make that rule for basketball reasons.

He has to go, the 2014 draft is going to be loaded, coming back for another season will only hurt his stock and with Parker, Wiggins, Harrison, Randle and Gordon likely to be 1 and done he can't afford to risk it.
It's just fukked up to think that's the very last game Noel will ever play for us. :to:

Is this certainly going to hurt his draft stock?

He didn't belong in College, regardless of how he looked he was robbed of the opportunity to make money this year, because someone would have drafted him.

He's not going number 1, he will still go top 10, but I expect Len and Zeller to go before him now.

meh, he most likely wasnt going #1 anyway.

i do agree with the idea that he would still have gotten drafted last summer.

look on the brightside, hes still going to be a top 10 pick.

I'm a Cards fan 'til the death, but my heart goes out to that kid.

I figured it was an ACL tear, and it was. His looked pretty severe, too.

I had one in high school, shyt was painful, and I had to have my knee drained damn near every other week.

He'll drop because of this, but I still think he'll be a lottery pick.

Only thing I don't like about this is that the bandwagon UK fans jumped off, and they're gonna use this injury as a corny ass excuse as to why.

True. Feel bad for the kid, but with or without him, UK was going to the NIT.

I'm not gonna lie it's gonna hurt watching the games from now on.. Even if we win it's not really a victory if Nerlens is hurt :to:


:cry:


our team is horrible without him.. he was the only reason we've been winning games.
