Who's better Noah or Horford?

[malbaker86]

name them....

Horford shoots better, runs the floor better, is a better on-man defender, is better in the post, and can actually lead the break.

Noah may be a slightly better rebounder, a better help defender and is a little more scrappy on offense and defense...


but none of this means shyt because Horford is a PF and Noah is a C

Both been leading the break since their UF days

I'd take Horford but can't fault ANYBODY who'll take Noah

horford easily

but like others have said, both of them on the court together would be

Noah has better hustle and defence but Horford is better on paper and a better shooter

My vote is on Al

Horford used to be better when he came in but Noah has surpassed him the passed 2 years.

horford and noah are both having their best years statistically, horford just does more on both sides of the ball and has a bigger impact on the game than noah

defensively noah has the slight edge but Al's offense and athleticism get him the nod

Al Horford is the better player he routinely busts noah's ass and can face up,post up and gets double doubles all the time

Noah can do everything but score his post game sucks and his jumper is suspect.There's a reason why horford was drafted 3rd and noah 9th

Horford has star (some would even say superstar) potential and could easily be that on another team. Noah is more of an effort guy but impacts he game more than Horford. You cant go wrong with either but depending on the team Noah may be a better fit

Horford just needs someone who can create shots for him. He could easily be a 20-25 PPG scoring if he had someone who could create his shots like CP3. He is an offensive and defensive threat. Noah is very good as well. I am a big Noah fan but Horford is a superstar if Atlanta ever decided to get that man a real PnR PG. Not guys like Teague or old guys like Bibby.

Josh would def reach his full potential under thibs tho

20 - 7 - 5 with ELITE defense and highlights to make you go

might wanna look into that brehs

Josh is just a horrible decision maker and overall inconsistent with low offensive BBIQ. His potential is better than he is now but it isn't 20ppg.

well for starters Al actually can be featured in an offense.. averaging 17 ppg on 55% shooting as opposed to noah's 12 ppg on 45% .. Al has for the last month been ATL's offense and led us to alot of huge wins.. he's also our go to option when down 1 or 2 in late game situations.. he's also one of the best shooting big men in the league and is reliable out to long 2's. noah's a better help defender by far but Al is still no slouch and imo is more solid with his man defense.. altho noah is no slouch in that department either..

they both average close to the same amount of boards and even though noah avg's more assists i'd say horford is a better passing big but he plays with better ball distributers than noah like josh smith , devin and teague.. Josh smith would actually be your 2nd leading assist man with no rose.. and shyt prob your 1st

also not that i give a shyt about PER but horford's is higher too

so since their defense and and other factors are comparable im going with horford due to his superior offense and ability to lead..and the fact that he can kill you high post and low post.

all this while horford is playing out of position and with a similar sized player next to him

but.. i guess you want me to be all chicago everything like the OP and you and pick noah anyway.. nah

Bodied that groupie and the bolded is true.Them nikkas can't be objective for shyt

Imagine horford with like prime Steve Nash for example

I honestly don't know who I would take between the two. Al is better on offense, but Noah is so versatile on D that it balances his offensive defiences out. I would like to see Al get a whole season playing and guarding power forwards though instead of centers. And I would like to see him with a pass first point guard who knows how to through an entry pass.
