Drive to the Finals Picks - May 2, 2011

Fantasy Fresh Wes:
Must - Joakim Noah

  • I like Noah tonight for three reasons. 1) The most obvious reason is that Boozer is clearly not 100%, so I expect a bit more out of Noah to compensate for his injury. 2) He is playing against his old college teammate (Al Horford) and I expect him to compete even harder this series, based on this rivalry alone. 3) I don't have much faith in ATL beating the Bulls ... much like the lack of faith I had in them beating the Magic.
Bust - Derrick Rose
  • I know, I know - how can you Yay one Bull and Nay another? But it's simple really. I'm going with my old habit of not taking the best player in Game 1. Rose is a huge waste of a pick if the Bulls win the series, and there is plenty of time to use him down the road if the Hawks look poised to take the series.
