Tuhia he tomokanga mo tenei whitianga - I takaro ia i nga keemu 81 i tana wa rookie me te toharite o te 8.3 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.5 apg me 23.4 mpg. Ko te ahua tinana o Nocioni o te tiaki i hangaia he tautohetohe huri noa i te riiki, a ka whakamutua ia mo te takaro kotahi i muri i te kino kino ki a Tayshaun Prince o Detroit Pistons. I mahia e Nocioni i mua he kino kino ki a Dwyane Wade o Miami Heat, katahi ka panaia e Udonis Haslem i mua i nga kaitango whakaahua ki te rarangi tuatahi o nga kaimatakitaki. I maka e tētahi kaitākaro tētahi inu ki a Nocioni, he rite tonu ki te tūtukitanga i tīmata ai te whawhai a Pacers me Pistons
Kei te Whare o Auburn Hills. I tukuna atu te pūmanawa e te kaitiaki. Mo te kaupapa, i whakawhiwhia a Nocioni ki te kino-kotahi (he kino e pa ana ki te whakapiri nui, kaore ranei i te tika) me te hangarau. I whiwhi a Haslem i te hangarau me te whiu.
