I always thought Hinrich was underappreciated by the fanbase. I'm going to guess he doesn't have an interest in this, but I thought he'd be a good coach.
The internet says he has moved to South Dakota and does some form of coaching at some basketball academy there or something

I saw that. Looks like one of those pre-draft performance centers, BUT, who is going to Sioux Falls to prep for the draft?

Back to Noah, since Paxson is still technically involved with the organization, what are the chances that he leads the retirement press conference/ceremony?

I think it's likely. Kinda fitting too since Pax drafted him...or maybe technically it was Gar by that point but who cares?

I didn’t think the Noah pick was a good one when it happened but MAN did he quickly change my mind.

I said it when he played and stand by it. If every player on teams I root for played with the energy and enthusiasm he did, I would be one happy fan!

Congrats to Joakim!

Legend. I loved his intensity. Truly a guy that always gave it 100%. Hopefully they retire his Jersey someday.

Florida doesn't come close to being 2 time champs without him. He added a dimension to that team that made them dominant.

Still one of the greatest things a player has ever said.

I'm really feeling kinda old. I remember when Joakim Noah's dad played tennis. ?

I went and got his autograph in Algonquin, IL, a few weeks after LeBron announced he was taking his talents to South Beach. I asked him to please make LeBron regret not choosing Chicago and, although my memory is foggy due to being somewhat starstruck, he said something along the lines of, 'you're damn right I will'.
