At 8:00 Beijing time on October 29, the Knicks challenged the Bulls away, and in this game there was a player who was special and significant to the Bulls - Joaquin Noah.
Joaquin Noah was drafted by the Bulls to enter the NBA with the 9th pick in the 1st round of the draft in 2007, playing for the Bulls, Knicks, Grizzlies and Clippers. After being cut by the Clippers last December, Noah did not leave home for nearly a year, or the Bulls signed back their old friends at the last minute, allowing Noah to retire as a Bulls player, and the Bulls also held a tribute ceremony for Noah at home.
Bull officially shared noah's 2007 and 2021 makeup comparison photos, which can really be described as: youth and maturity!
In the first round of 2009, a 3-year-old Noah and a 2-year-old Rose jointly supported the Bulls' inside and outside lines. The defending champion Celtics snatched seven outs in the first year; swept the Pacers 4-1 the following year, took the Hawks 4-2, and although sent home by the Heat, they were one step closer to the championship; in the third year, Noah witnessed his brother injuring his knee during garbage time... Since then, Noah has led the team in a single core, selected into the first team, the first defensive team, 2 All-Stars, the top five mvp...
In this way, Noah, who led the team with a single core, finally ushered in his own injury wave in 16 years. On 17 January 2016, Noah was absent for 4-6 months due to dislocation of his left arm. On July 2, 2016, the New York Knicks and free agent Noah reached a signing agreement. On April 27, 2017, Noah underwent surgery to repair the torn left rotator cuff, and it will take him 4-6 months to recover from his injuries. At the same time, according to previous reports, in February 2017, Noah also underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. On October 14, 2018, the Knicks officially announced that they had cut Noah.
On December 1, 2018, Noah joined the Memphis Grizzlies on a veteran base salary contract until the end of the season. The 33-year-old will wear the number 55 shirt.
On March 7, 2020, Noah signed a ten-day contract with the Los Angeles Clippers. However, due to the epidemic, it was finally cut by the Clippers on December 2, 2020.
When asked about retirement, Noah said: "I ran out of every bullet I had, I don't have any regrets, I gave everything." At the same time, he also said that he did not care whether the jersey would be retired by the Bulls, because for him, it was already an honor for him to play at the home of the Bulls, and he would fight for the Bulls until his legs were unconscious, which was irreplaceable.
As for Rose at the Knicks today, I think the two of them are like Curry and Green, one evil man respects a hero, Rose is Noah's hero, and Noah is Rose's irreplaceable brother. When everyone shouted Noah MVP, Noah retorted that the Bull had only one MVP, and that was Derek Ross.
Goodbye madman, goodbye Noah.
He is Noah's hero, and Noah is Rose's irreplaceable brother. When everyone shouted Noah MVP, Noah retorted that the Bull had only one MVP, and that was Derek Ross.
