    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Bucks also have keen interest in two other players: Chinese power forward Yi Jianlian and small forward Jeff Green of Georgetown. The Bucks are expected to attend private workouts for both players perhaps this week: Green in Washington, D.C., and Yi in Los Angeles.

    Florida State forward Al Thornton said he intends to work out for the Bucks as well. But it was unknown when he would do so.

    Joakim Noah, a power forward from Florida who is expected to go anywhere from 3 to 10 in the draft, told me at the recent pre-draft camp in Orlando, Fla., that he wouldn?t work out for the Bucks. Noah wouldn?t give any reason for shunning the Bucks.

    However, according to some NBA scouts, Noah claimed Milwaukee wasn?t a ?good fit?? for him. And the feeling appears mutual. It?s almost a lock the Bucks will pass on Noah even if he?s still available when they make their pick.

    It was also recently reported the Bucks would work out Acie Law, a point guard from Texas &M. But the Bucks don?t have any serious interest in drafting Law with the sixth pick and, as such, both parties have decided not to go ahead with a workout.</div>

    This is getting annoying at this point. Joakim Noah has been running his mouth constantly over the past few days and it's dropped his stock tremendousely. If Milwuakee wants to draft him, they still can even if Noah refuses to work out with them, whats the point of shunning hte Bucks?

    Who does Noah think he is, Greg Oden? He just keeps running his mouth, and telling teams, no. I hope he drops because right now, he thinks to himself he'll go high. I don't think 3-10 is where he belongs. He is more a 15-25 kind of guy, IMO. He may be a hard worker, but man is he ungrateful. He is getting a chance to go high, and play, even start, instead he says no. I know he says he might not fit, but hell man, work out with the team, maybe you will fit.

    He is just a selfish player, IMO and doesn't deserve to go high.

    Yeah I agree, this guy is definately arrogant as hell. It's funny because when asked what current NBA player he'd compare Noah to its Mark Madsen, because they averaged similiar stats in colllege..
