Joakim Noah

Joakim Noah’s relationship with the Chicago Bulls is forever. It doesn’t matter that he’s now a member of the New York Knicks, or that he typically views anyone who doesn’t share his jersey color scheme as an arch enemy. It doesn’t even matter that his tenure in The Windy City ended in complete implosion, amid [...]

Tom Thibodeau has liked what he’s seen from the New York Knicks this summer.

Here’s the New York Post‘s Marc Berman with the lowdown: [...]

New York Knicks fans may not like Joakim Noah’s four-year, $72 million contract. In fact, they most definitely shouldn’t.

Seeing Joakim Noah come off the bench last year for the Bulls seemed very odd. Rookie head coach Fred Hoiberg made the decision to remove the fan favorite from the starting linuep.

We all know that there have been an abundance of rumors surrounding the Chicago Bulls in the past month or so and it seems as though every player on the team is on the block or in danger of being moved outside of Jimmy Butler. Recent injuries to Joakim Noah and Nikola Mirotic have put [...]

Joakim Noah, by all appearances, has played his last game with the Chicago Bulls. The soon-to-be 31-year-old is done for the season after undergoing shoulder surgery and will be an unrestricted free agent at campaign’s end. He doesn’t fit head coach Fred Hoiberg’s offensive model, and the presences of Taj Gibson, Nikola Mirotic (currently injured), [...]
