| Noah not letting shoulder injury slow him down
-- Joakim Noah took an entry pass, planted and scored on Michigan's Courtney Sims. He held up his hands during defense and on a defensive slide drill across the lane. He bench pressed. He did everything he was asked to do during Monday's NBA draft workout for the Boston Celtics. It was no different for the Florida junior forward when he went through workouts for Chicago, Charlotte and Minnesota last week. It won't be any different when he works out for Memphis, Sacramento or Atlanta in the next two weeks. .

The downside of paradise
Actually, I don't believe that any place is heaven on earth -- though I've been to my fair share of purgatories, or worse -- but some readers are disappointed that I don't always highlight the lowlights of Hawaii. What about the sluggish traffic on Kauai's Coconut Coast or in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island, they ask. What about the helicopters that crash during sightseeing tours? And, did I know that many Hawaii residents oppose the coming interisland ferry service? Two answers: Either I already addressed these concerns in other venues in The Chronicle, or the complaints weren't germane to the issue at hand. But, for the record, I heartily approve of visitors being aware that they're going to a real place, with real people in real situations, and not a manufactured Disneyland safely engineered for your pleasure.
