Joakim Noah such an awesome candid guest th-cam.com/video/DLUYf_hgSJo/w-d-xo.html
I’m the biggest bron fan but I love Noah he was a beast
D-Rose caught a mean stray 😂💀
He ain’t have to do him like that 😂😂😂
Not really. He straight up told the media back then that he doesn’t recruit
Nah he straight up told niggas I don’t need to recruit they know who I am
Probably why they didn’t go there.
Boy caught a 50 cal round
A fully fit D Rose, Wade, LeBron, Bosh & Noah? 75-7 team
in theory yeah but they wouldnt be able to afford a bench, and chemistry wouldve been awkward too
Highly unlikely. The only decent shooter there would've been Bosh, and with no cap space for a bench they're just 1 injury away from a troubling spot to be in.
And it wouldn't be both Wade and LeBron there, just 1 of them due to salary cap. Unless of course they all take a massive pay cut like half of what they would've gotten otherwise, which just doesn't happen.
Not a single person can shoot in that team
@@artificialintelligence7988 literally all of them except for noah cpuld shoot.
Bulls could've had 2 of the 3 not all of them. Miami had most salary cap space and could sign all 3 thts why they all signed with miami
LeBron is Joakim's arch nemesis and for him to admit he tried to recruit LeBron is wild af to me 😂😂😂😂
Facts😂
ITS SO FUNNY 😂
He's just being honest
In todays NBA the arch nemesis is a joke.
Imagine John Paxton tryin to recruit Zeke.
At the time he was still by a pretty large margin the best player in the league, you'd be crazy not to want him
Bosh meant hes coming to chicago just for the weekend to chill lol
Coming to beat them in playoffs he meant 🫨😂
😁😁😁😁😅😅😅yeah that sounds more like it. But he should've just said no I have other offers. That would've been more manly.
Bosh always torched the Bulls in the playoffs
Chris Bosh loves to troll. He got Noah LOL
Chris told d wade n bron Noah want us to come Chicago… them Niggas laughed 🤦🏾♂️
That Bulls team would’ve been an all time great
I felt like bron would have had more chips if he had gone to Chicago.
@@faenihbs I'm not sure if wade would leave Miami and join them. but if Bron's there with that Chicago team it would crazy. It'd be great for Rose too to be with a teammate who takes a lot of care of his body.
He must have forgotten the owner is cheap wasn't going to pay them all
@@daveumbrella D Rose was Bron’s teammate in Cleveland the second go around so im sure he learned a thing or two
@@daveumbrellaWade was leaving. The goal was for him and Bron to do it together to compete with Boston so he was gone go especially with Chicago being home
PPL forget Bosh was an easy 22&10 a night and put him with Deng and Noah in the front court it would’ve been scary.
Nah. Deng would probably be gone if bosh and lebron go to the bulls. They can't pay that much.
@@roronoaworo Lebron was always going to Miami but Bosh was a wild card. Wade and James wanted Melo but he went to NYK. They had just enough money to get Bosh and keep the others
@@reginaldshort8486 if only bosh going to the bulls that's too much bigs. They also have boozer.
CB
Boozer
Noah
One of these will come off the bench haha
Yo imagine d rose and lebron on the same team in 2011. Gah damn
Wouldn't work Lebron will have them standing around. Where's your shooters ? Lebron doesnt need a center to clog up the middle. ✔ Laker4life8/24
@@reggiejackson5732ur dumb.
@@reggiejackson5732 bro it really was no shooters on they team. Wade and bron can’t shoot. Heat wasn’t winning games off shooting and buckets. What people fail to realize was Miami was winning games based on defense. Wade and bron had that perimeter on lock.
Never !!! At that point Lebron was like a Vice Lord to My Boy D Rose
@@thebucketmanj8525 you can't win a chip w/o defense. But you forget they had Mike Miller, Shane Battier, Ray Allen, Chalmers there to shoot. Wade was the closer and middy master. You can't win w/o a consistent midrange scorer either. That's what old Bron is missing on his team now.
Wasn’t nobody gonna fukn beat that team with D Rose, Lebron, Wade, Bosh and Noah….Damn!!
Could have been that the 90s Bulls wouldn't be the best bulls team ever, if that would have happened....
Terrible spacing
LeBron would have wanted to but that would’ve made the Jordan thing worse than ever
He could never be the real 23😂@@ronniethomas9092
I wanted Melo to go over there the year he left New York
You mean when he left denver?
@@masterroshimagazines4354 no he’s talking about 2014 off season when it was rumoured melo was either going to join bron and the big 3 in Miami or he was gonna go and join d rose Noah and pau on the bulls. Neither happened and he stayed with the knicks
He didn’t listen when LeBron told him what to do with his contract, and how many years to take so they all can be free agents together.
@@dominicbowie092he said the year he left new York what are you talking about bro
I wanted Melo to go to Chicago in the 2011 offseason if he remained a free agent
The best comment I’ve ever seen about Joakim is that he looked like the kid in school who always smelled like ham but no one ever told him.
bro honestly, Joakim got that hobo chic vibe like if he was standing outside the arena before a game and i didn’t know nothin bout ball i would just think he’s the tallest hobo i ever seen 😂 it’s that fuckin beard man 100%
PG: Derrick Rose
SG: Dwayne Wade
SF: LeBron James
PF: Chris Bosh
C: Joakim Noah
82-0

Bulls had cap space for 2 of these guys,
Miami was able to make it work for All 3… that was one of the main factors to them going to South Beach.
As a Bulls fan, I wanted any combo of the 3, but once we signed Carlos Boozer before Lebron even made his decision, I knew it was wraps.
Imagine how fun the east wouldve been if carmelo didnt stay with the knicks and went to the bulls. It would of been the heat big 3 against rose, noah, melo, and deng. That wouldve been some epic east playoffs
I say this all da time Melo should've went to the bulls in the 2011 offseason as a free agent
“Basically” is where I get caught up. He either told you he was or he wasn’t. Idk
I get what you're saying, but actually CB verbally committing to Chicago has been confirmed by people other than Joakim. And for the record I think he says the word "basically" because he's paraphrasing not quoting him exactly. Joakim plays it straight up don't do him like that !
Yea Lebron has an interview where he says Wade called him asking him to convince bosh to come to Miami cause Bosh wanted Chicago.
Yup rose was the reason that they didn’t end up in Chicago they were really going to go to Chicago but they didn’t hear from d rose so they felt disrespected this is facts
We don't want lebron here in Chicago
@@jheiny1231As well as titles. Lol
@@epicgodlux4228 not an allstar recruitment team title.
@@jheiny1231 thats why ya'll irrelevant since 98..😂😂
@@jheiny1231 chicago boys are chumps
Just shows how great LeBron was. He didn’t even liKe Bron like that 😂
He said he tried recruiting ALL THREE.
Not "like that" he aint like bron at all😂
But u right😂
LOL Nothing great about it. Players are recruiting everyone nowadays like they're part of a Born Again church or something.
Both Joakim and LeBron hated each other.
That was a solid rumor at the time. I was convinced it was gonna be there
Mans was Draymond before Draymond 😂😂
The nostalgia of that summer time in chitown. Everyone was talking about how close we are to recruiting Lebron, Wade or Bosh. Derrick Rose was already so big in Chicago, and he was about to be the next big thing and everyone in Chicago knew that. And although we didn’t sign any of those guys, Derrick Rose ended up becoming the youngest MVP in league history at only 22 that very next year. Brought us to the #1 seed with a terrible supporting cast outside of Noah. DRose needed some help, it was clear he would win titles if the big three in Miami never existed to cheat the game. But him needing to carry the team cost his career and I still feel a bit sad about that. What could’ve been 😢
Nobody cheated the game. He should have recruited someone
How is that cheating the game? The only difference is they didn’t get drafted or traded together. Everything else was like other championship teams
Cast was far from terrible
And yet, to this day the biggest threat to the Heats big three were the 2013-2014 Indiana Pacers. So goh with that nonsense lol
@@one_uninterested_introvert The Bulls were injured and done by that point wtf are you talking about? Yes Indiana took that top spot after DRose’ career was over. What you just said has nothing to do with my comment
Totally explains the “Hollywood as hell” moment!
"Derrick wasnt doing none of that sh*t"
haha why you throwing your teammate under the bus like that 😂😂😂
Crazy for him to say this 😂
So it would have been d rose, Lebron Bosch and wade? 👀
Naw probably 2 out of the three, no way we were able to afford all three unless one took a major pay cut.
@@johndabomb7759 they were taking pay cuts lol that’s how it worked in Miami but d rose was acting like he didn’t need them didn’t even come for the pitch lebron and wade said they felt like rose didn’t want them there so they didn’t go but they was really close to going Noah not lying
D Rose the king of Chicago, D wade homecoming, The King himself, Bosh, Noah! Off the bench Captain Kirk,Jimmy butler, Kyle Korver, Taj Gibson and spray paint hair Carlos Boozer! This team would still be wining chips in 2023
We don't want lebron here in Chicago
Man I believe this 100% Noah is one of those guys who you just need on your team. I know Drose was the talent but we had Dawgs behind him. Unsung hero
At least he is committed to make the team better.
So that’s why he had beef with LBJ
He had beef wit Bron before Miami
No
he was the janitor for lebron’s hs when lebron was blowing up in hs.
That’s the worst spacing of all time
It’s 2011 lol Doesn’t matter
Lebron, D-Wade, Chris Bosh and Derrick Rose, damn! They would have been unstoppable.
Noah was the first draymond green at center . Respect ❤ 💪 i remember that mvp year you had . Was Willing the bulls to wins
Wow, it's almost like players know who the other good players are and want them on their team.
To add insult to it, Pax and Foreman settled for Boozer when they couldn’t get any of the big 3 or Stoudemire. That and Derrick’s injuries pretty much ruined any chance we had of ever winning.
Yea I’d heard about this. Got me thinking.. so Chicago could’ve had Bron, Wade, Bosh, Noah & Derek Rose? Why the hell did that not happen?!
Bulls could've had 2 of them not all 3. Lebron & Bosh or lebron and d Wade.
It didn’t happen because drose acted like he was too good to recruit them and didn’t need them
@@durodwilson2570 Wonder which big 3 would’ve been better
D wade said in his interview him and lebron thought about joining the bulls. Don’t know bout Chris Bosh. But that would have been epic.
Wade ended up going to Chicago, BRON went back to Cleveland to get that chip he promised , Bosh had lung issues and was out
D🌹 went too the Cavs
He only went back because they had kyrie if they didn’t he wouldn’t of went back to the cavs
Rose is cut from a different cloth like dame Lillard. They both have confidence in themselves to get it done, there’s nothing wrong with that. Rose made it to the eastern conference finals without another superstar.
Dame as well. And it ain't like Dame wouldn't want help. Also Dame is much better, idc if he wins an MVP or not. Dame is so much better. In the stronger conference he has led a team to the conference finals, has the best playoffs game of all time according to the game score (game 5 vs Denver 2021).
And neither got it done
If bosh went to Chicago … that would’ve been very scary. Bosh would’ve been the main man after rose .. he would’ve put up 20-25 & 10 with some added range and efficiency to the roster . It would’ve been very difficult to dominate both sides of the floor at any point against a joakim and bosh front court . With just bosh .. that team would’ve broke the east .
Imagine a lineup of
PG DRose
SG Dwade
SF LBJ
PF Bosh
C Joakim
Chris Bosh would've had a better career if he would've went to Chicago. He was a beast in Toronto
We don't know because of D-Rose injury in 2012 and then Bosh got hindered by blood clots! 🤷🏿♂️
Chris Bosh was the replaceable one out of the Big 3. They still stay in Miami. Amare, Dirk, Lowry, Paul Pierce and Boozer were free agents that Summer too
Lowry??
Rofl. Someone is pure cap and wasn't watching ball. Bosh was the least replaceable on that team. Thats why Wade and Bron waited for his choice.
It really seemed like it was a foregone conclusion that Wade and Bron were gonna team up in Chicago. They had all the tools; great young core, rising superstar, and most importantly 2 max-contract slots!
That Chicago team would have been INSANE. Like 2017-2018 Warriors level
That would have been to damn much man 💀🤚🏾
Lebron just didn’t like Noah lmao
1. Derrick Rose
2. Dwyane Wade
3. LeBron James
4. Chris Bosh
5. Joakim Noah
How many chips this lineup winning?
It’s because Melo was supposed to join them in Miami but he took that bag from the Knicks so they pivoted to Bosh. If Bosh goes to Chicago with that squad they definitely win one.
He was tryna Win 4 Rings in a row. 70 Win Season average 😂😂😂
I thought I remember him being fully on board until they told him they would have to trade Derrick to make it happen.
When you go to a basketball interview after proof in studio with your reggae band
D Wade was not coming back to Chicago wit chu lol
I'm glad they didn't come that Miami-Chicago Rivalry was awesome
The bulls would of had to give up rose that makes no sense, they had good team they need one more solid piece not a whole team.
Everyone knows dwade only took that meeting with bulls to get Bosh to Miami
The fact that Noah was the one trying to recruit Bron and Wade was probably the reason they went to Miami. Who the hell is Noah lol
Bugging
This dude tried to say he tried to recruit Bron...cmon bro
I feel D rose just don’t be talking to fuckin nobody we seen that allstar vid💀😂
Don't forget guys, they still had Jimmy Butler on the come up as well. 82-0 EZ
Miami was the only team that could afford all 3. If they went to chicago it would just be bron and wade not bosh so if bosh said that then he probably was coming alone
D rose is the biggest what if because he didn’t want to recruit :/
I thought DWade said in an interview with KG, that him and LeBron talked about it, and considered spots.
Wade said they didn't come to Chi cuz DRose was a ball dominant PG, an it wouldn't work between the 3 of them, Bron, Wade, Rose.
Wade said that it was LeBron and him talking. They considered Chi. I'm a Heat fan, but as a basketball fan, it would've been crazy to see how dominant that Bulls team was gonna be.
After that, Wade said they considered other stars to be a part of the big 3. Amare, Rose and more.Bosh was part of the choices, and they picked him cuz of his fit.
It's from that KG and Wade talk some years ago.
True story a reporter once asked D rose how come he never tried to recruit lebron & dwade and his response was "I thought it was a no brainier" 😂💪🏿👍🏿🔥
Damn it’s crazy to think the bulls coulda had all those chips instead of Miami and Chicago def would’ve beat Dallas that one year if they had Lebron and d rose
People say this would be a bad fit but literally everyone on this team is a great and unselfish passer except for maybe Chris Bosh who is just good and you can stick him in the corner to knock down 3s. This team would be exceptional with Wade, Bron, and Noah moving off ball or a pick and roll with Rose and Bosh. And defensively, this team has 12x All Defensive selections and Joakim Noah has a DPOY
D Rose said 🖕🏾 them 🥷🏿s
One of the biggest cons against D-Rose was his lack of recruiting. He never lifted a finger.
Bosh would’ve been relegated to a spot up shooter role and D Wade and Rose would’ve fought over who gets the ball after Bron. That team would’ve been a mess idc what anyone says that’s too much talent.
I was there for the MJ teams but Noah will always be my favorite Bull of all time
Rusty Buckets made a video about this scenario
I remember being so sure Lebron was going to Chicago. Was very surprised to hear south beach.
oh yea guys Joakim Noah was the Bulls savior rofl
A lineup of
MVP d rose
Wade
Bron
Bosh
Noah
Nobody would’ve beat them
I love players(the employees) having say on their careers and "recruiting" other players to make their teams better. idiots hate it like they want to keep all the same bad co-workers they have and wouldn't recruit the best in their field of they could. glad Noah flat out admitting he tried to recruit great players.
Would be a good team if they were put together.
So true. Derrick always stayed to himself he never recruited but that’s just his personality
Honestly i remember 2010 as a big LBJ fan i whas hoping he goes to Chicago if Rose didn’t got injured i can imagine LBJ Noah Rose definitely championship team
Listen to this from the top but pretend he’s talking about aliens lol
Well wade did come to the chi just a couple of years and injuries later
Dude should've played tennis like his dad.
Lebron documentary gonna be a watch
Every thing happened how it was supposed to, we wouldn’t have mvp rose
They care about chris is cuz he played with Bron. He was decent but not a world beater but they wanted bron to play with bums. they try to say jordan played with bums when he clearly didn't. they play like pippin was trash.
That was the villain arc. I see.
They woulda had the big 3 plus rose which longevity wise would have replaced wade when he was old with a better d rose
Bro Drose was fresh in the league wtf did Jokim want him to do calling up every Allstar like he's known em for years and try and get them to Chicago like cmon bro.
In respect to D-rose, he arguably could have beaten that big 3 had his body held up
mj never once asked jerry for help..just so y’all know
Derrick must’ve been to busy carrying y’all on the actual court getting actual wins while you were “recruiting people” that never came
Then Wade Posterized My Boy
Wasn’t it because Melo signed his extension to early because they did all agree to go to Chi town but Melo signed that extension way to early so UD took a massive pay cut to get his guys there and 2 more chips
Why he had to call out D-Rose like that
Because Rose and a lot of people said that Rose didn’t try to recruit nobody and that was why Lebron and wade didn’t go to the bulls.
@@tjrose9830 yeah true. I just saw it as unnecessary
@@nowitzkitheestallion9196 it makes more sense in the context of the full episode. Noah and Rose are really close
@@apexfrazier that's what made me pause because I know they buddies
Lol D Rose said himself he wasn't trying to recruit
bros the trade piece
D rose problem laxing. Respect to noah outside
They almost had DWade cause Pat was trippin
So would y’all haters ridicule the Noah for building a “super team”
Hell no because Noah is nowhere near or on the level of a Lebron James or Kevin Durant there's pressure on them to win a ring not Joakim! 😂
Crazy I heard they was going to buy something went wrong with the luol deng trade and they couldn’t make it happen
Chris Bosh over Boozer gets DRose the help he needed
That just means that Amare, Kyle Lowry, Paul Pierce, or Dirk come to Miami to form the Big 3. The Bulls not competing with that
I mean Bosh was probably going to Chicago until Melo decided he'd rather go to the Knicks coz it was supposed to be Melo instead of Bosh to the Heat.
What ever it was I was doin it except working on my free throws
Why would Rose want less ball and less money as a result of being like 3rd or 4th option?😂
Well Dwade eventually did make it to Chicago just 10 years to late 🥴🤣
“Whatever it took to make the Bulls better”…how about working on your jump shot and free throw shooting
Who is he to THINK he could Recruit LeBron..... GET REAL.
