Thibs targetting Noah per SN

[TeamRicky [enjin:6648771]]

League sources tell Sporting News that Thibodeau has targeted Joakim Noah, who is an unrestricted free agent and has interest in leaving Chicago and re-joining Thibodeau. When they were together in Chicago, Noah developed and thrived under Thibodeau, finishing fourth in the MVP voting in 2013-14.

This is good or bad news. It all depends on how much we'd have to pay and the length of the deal.

It depends on which Noah we get. If he is healthy and rejuvenated it's a great fit. He plays great defense and rebounds. If he is the broke down Noah then it sucks. We'll wait and see.

True. Hopefully we can sign him to a short term deal and for cheap so we can afford that risk. I would not be happy if we gave him a three year deal or longer averaging 8 Million or more a year. I'd much rather that money going to resign Gorgui.

I believe the story goes that Noah was a huge Garnett fan and the first time they played one another when Noah went up to kg to say how much he looked up to him kg told him to eff off and some other insults. Mostly just cause thats how intense he is. I think they would be fine together.

If there is any truth to this, how might it affect our draft? Would it decrease the likelihood we go for Bender?
