Joakim Noah's off-season
2009-08-07 12:56:00 From various sources I heard a bit about what Joakim Noah's off-season has looked like at least in regards to what he's attempting to do. ...
End of Season Review: The Rookies
2008-04-28 08:42:00 Maybe the only ones who can’t have a finger pointed at them about the horri-bull season is the first year player’s. Here is the breakdown on the first year guys. JamesOn Curry: While the 51st overall pick in the 2007 NBA draft remained on the 15 man roster throughout the season, his only contributions would come in preseason ...

Bulls better off not making the playoffs.
2008-03-29 16:25:00 This is a point made by Chris Carson and I wanted to emphasize it. My idea of a post season appearance is you either go deep in the playoffs or you don’t go at all. What’s the point of struggling to make it to the 8th seed if you’re going to get beat anyways? Perhaps ...

The deserving of the 8th seed
2008-03-25 05:57:00 When the Atlanta Hawks visit the Bulls tomorrow, it will show case a team more deserving of the 8th spot in the East. In my years of watching NBA basketball, I can’t remember the Hawks making the playoffs. There have been good player’s, Steve Smith, Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Jason Terry and even Rasheed Wallace for one game. ...

The Love Down Low
2008-03-24 05:52:00 He’s big, he’s skilled and after watching him dominate A&M yesterday, I realized he was more athletic than I thought. Love finished with 19 points, 11 rebounds and 7 blocks. In the final seconds of the game, I found myself yelling at the TV, demanding Darren Collison get the ball to Love. He delivered with ...

About time for a break
2008-02-15 01:53:00 There isn’t a team that will enjoy their weekend off more then the Bulls. The entire team will get to relax this weekend because no one on the roster is involved in anything. Joakim Noah isn’t playing in the Rookie/Sophomore Challenge, and even Ben Wallace didn’t make the All-Star team. I can’t say that I’m overly excited ...

Bulls entertaining in a different way
2008-01-17 01:29:00 Mike Imrem was right in Monday?s column, when he said the Bulls should forget televising their games and start showing the players-only meetings. I say, why stop at the players-only meetings? I want to see the practices, the post game locker rooms, and let?s put a camera on Scott Skiles as he watches this mess from his ...

What?s an interim head coach to do?
2008-01-15 00:20:00 Head coach Jim Boylan, and members of the Bulls management, took some abuse in the media for endorsing the player’s vote to extend Joakim Noah?s suspension for yesterday?s game against the Hawks, and deservedly so. Letting any employees make personnel decisions is dumb. Letting a group of 14-21 underachievers run the show is well? really dumb. Allowing ...

Maybe the Bulls should be the ones to emulate the Blazers
2008-01-03 23:48:00 The Bulls should be honored that the Portland Trail Blazers have based their rebuilding plan on John Paxson?s strategy, as the Blazers GM said in today?s Sam Smith column. Kevin Pritchard wanted to build through the draft and bring in good character guys that worked hard, just as the Bulls did, starting with Kirk ...

Bulls finally entertaining
2008-01-03 04:12:00 Since the beginning of the season, my greatest concern with the Bulls has been what John Paxson and the rest of the front office have in mind to get this team ready for the playoffs? in 2009. I held out hope that this year?s team could win the Eastern Conference or make the blockbuster deal for ...

JOAKIM NOAH DIDN?T SUPPORT HIS FATHER
2007-11-27 11:12:00 When you’re a regular kid, the thought of having a superstar athlete for a parent is dream. You have anything your heart desires, and an unearned sense of accomplishment. The “oh yeah, well my dad’s Michael Jordan” is a pretty powerful card on the playground too.. And it doesn’t even have to be MJ.. The ...

David Thorpe on Joakim Noah
2007-11-21 22:12:00 ESPN’s Thorpe has always been a huge fan of Joakim Noah, and has watched him closely for years. Here are some things he has noticed about Noah in the NBA, from Thorpe’s massive report on rookies: The Bulls have helped Joakim Noah a little with his perimeter shot, raising the release point a bit from where it used to be. Now he has to work on shooting with just one hand. His left thumb almost always turns toward the rim on his release, a common mistake that can be corrected with work. … In college, most players on their way to the NBA are the focal point of their teams. Plays are run for them, strengths are emphasized in the game plan and weaknesses are hoped to be hidden. Consider one of my favorite rookies, Chicago’s Joakim Noah. He could not consistently make the 16-foot shot at Florida, but his coach still wanted the ball in his hands at that range because he could drive by many of his opponents, or use his deft passing touch to feed the ball inside or re...
Interior answer to low-post question
2007-10-24 22:54:00 Not all teams can be as fortunate as San Antonio and Miami. Guys like Tim Duncan and Shaquille O?Neal give their team a low-post scoring threat the minute that they walk onto the floor. This combination of size and skill is hard to find, and when the Bulls found it (Eddy Curry), he had a ...

Subplots to get you ready for the season: Joakim Noah
2007-10-18 21:39:00 I left off my last post discussing the possibility of Joakim Noah wrestling the starting power forward position from Tyrus Thomas. While that may or may not be a good thing for the Bulls team, it will definitely take some adjusts for me, because I couldn?t stand Noah at Florida. From the reaction that I ...

Relatively meaningless Bulls signings, plus a word on the 800-lb. gorilla?
2007-07-28 00:56:00 The Bulls officially signed Joakim Noah and Aaron Gray today, which is insignificant except that it makes me wonder why they didn’t sign JamesOn Curry yet. Terms not released, as usual, and who really cares - Noah’s contract is specified almost in total by the rookie contract scale, while Gray isn’t likely to earn much ...

A Load of Bull(s) --
2007-06-30 04:03:00 Last night was the 2007 NBA Draft. The draft, like in any sport, is a day of excitement and hope for nearly every team. It's talked about for weeks before the event, and for months after. The day is completely dissected, analyzed, chewed up, and spit out.This year was no different, as the hype was threw the roof for Greg Oden, and Kevin Durant, as was the debate on who should be drafted first. As predicted, Portland chose Oden with the 1st overall pick, while Seattle took Durant in what was the easiest number two pick in recent history.Actually, the 2007 draft went pretty much as planned. You had to wait for a suprise this year, and with the 9th pick, we finally got it.Not the fact that he was chosen 9th overall by the Chicago Bulls, no. The real story, which was completely under-discussed, neigh hardly even mentioned, was Joakim Noah's suit.Look at it. I mean, look at it. Watch out Michael Irvin, there's a new sheriff in uglysuitville. Joakim Noah stole the show with his...unusu...

Joakim Noah Is Done Partying
2007-06-04 09:10:00 The nonstop party that began the day Joakim Noah discovered the behavioral effects of alcohol may have come to an end. Noah has said that in order to prepare for the NBA draft he is attempting to tone down his hedonistic lifestyle. “I had a lot of fun. A lot of fun. A lotta, lotta fun,” Noah said, grinning at the memory. “Now I don’t want people to think I go out and party all the time. This is my life, my job, and I take it very seriously.” I’d still be wary of drafting Noah, mostly because he only seems committed to this more conservative lifestyle until the draft. That means there’s still a good chance he’ll show up at training camp with Mike Sweetney’s gut, Jahidi White’s posterior, and Vin Baker’s liver.

Joakim Noah
2007-04-21 18:24:00 Joakim Noah es, ante todo, un jugador carismático, con una fuerte personalidad y muy expresivo en todos sus gestos y movimientos. Ha sido capaz de renunciar al Draft el año pasado para seguir disfrutando de la vida universitaria (tampoco tenía ningún tipo de necesidad económica) y ha conseguido ganar dos campeonatos universitarios con los Gators de Florida, junto a Horford y Taurean Green.Seguir Leyendo... Noah es un jugador de 6'10''/6'11'' de altura y 230 lbs de peso, aunque su apariencia es ligeramente fragil. Del mismo modo, su espalda no es muy ancha por lo que algunos scouts cuestionan si será capaz de ganar peso para poder pelearse en la zona al máximo nivel. Por contra, es un jugador muy atlético, ágil y rápido, que ante todo juega siempre con la máxima intensidad. Es muy inteligente y es capaz de leer muy bien el juego ofensivo, finaliza muy bien cerca del aro gracias a sus largos brazos y a unas decentes manos. Esa intensidad y agresividad le favorece en muchas facet...

[College] Joakim Noah doesn?t like being called "good"
2007-04-02 16:28:00 We all know that Joakim looks funny. And we all know that Joakim Noah dances funny. But did you know that Joakim Noah could be funny behind the mic. Well, it’s not exactly Eddie Murphy or George Carlin funny but we still think that you’ll get a chuckle out of Noah’s reaction ...
[Other Sports] We felt like doing the same thing to Joakim Noah
2007-03-20 14:31:00 A soccer match is a cheap shot waiting to happen but it usually involves two players, not a player and a drunken spectator. Well, last night was the exception as an angry fan ran onto the pitch and took a swing at Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard while he celebrated with teammates. After a ...
[College] Joakim Noah will not be on Dancing with the Stars
2007-03-12 16:09:00 Step aside Mark Madsen, move over Bob Kraft; you are no longer the benchmarks for the most humiliating championship celebrations of all time. In fact, Joakim Noah might have set the bar to an unreachable height when he flailed about like a sugar starved eight-year-old who just slammed a Double Gulp Slurpee after the ...
