‘Caged animal’: Knicks’ Joakim Noah practicing again 

Post#1 » by VirginiaKnickFan » Thu Oct 13, 2016 11:32 am

Joakim Noah is a self-admitted pacifist when it comes to war, but one of the NBA’s most unpeaceful players on the court.

“He’s like a caged animal out there,’’ Carmelo Anthony said. “Loud. It’s a different game out there with him. His energy and excitement being back on the court lifted everyone up. That’s what he does. That’s his game and aura.’’

The Knicks’ new starting center guaranteed his team debut will come Saturday in a Garden preseason game against the Celtics.

JoNo: "Hey Plum Lord, you smell that?"

Plumlee: "Yeah, what is that Jo?"

JoNo: "That's the season, it's right around the corner"

Plumlee: "I'm starving Jo, you think coach is going to let me eat"

JoNo: "Here's some advice young fella, don't wait for coach to feed you. When this cage opens, you hunt down everything that isn't orange and blue"

Plumlee: "Ok, I got it Jo"

I think Jokim Noah gave Plumlee his name from my bro Sean P. I remember hearing Joakim was a fan. Slumlord was P's nickname he gave himself. #RIP

That's kind of a strange statement considering the actual hype I've seen about Noah has pointed to his intangibles, and specifically away from any traditional measure of production on a basketball court.

So I guess the Knicks better just win then.

word. His Raw stats were never impressive. The coach is already saying he is paying dividends. so basically Noah is already producing.
