Joakim Noah Hates that the Miami Heat Won the NBA Championship


Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah has never hidden his burning disdain for the Miami Heat. So, you can only imagine how much it bothered him to watch the Heat win their second straight NBA title. Here, let Joakim tell you himself. Per USA Today: “At first I said I didn’t care, but I was lying to myself,’ Noah said at The Steve Nash Foundation Showdown in New York City Wednesday night. ‘I was driving in my car and I just didn’t feel good about it at all after they won. Well you know what? It’s going to be extra motivation to work extra hard in the offseason and I feel like we’ll be the team that beats them next year.’ […] ‘I think we’re pretty close,’ he said. ‘We got a lot of work to do. We don’t like them, they don’t like us, but at the end of the day, you gotta give credit where credit is due. They’re a very good team, but we feel like if we’re healthy, we’ll have our shot.'”
