Anthony praises Noah: He pushes you to compete at a high level every time on the basketball court
Carmelo Anthony: Joakim Pushes us to be Better
Joakim Noah joined the Knicks training camp after having missed the first two days for personal matters.
And Carmelo Anthony praised the French big man after the first practices together.
Per ESPN, Carmelo Anthony has played against Joakim Noah for nine seasons, so he knows him fairly well. But playing alongside Noah for the first time gave Anthony some new perspective.
“He brings a different dynamic to the court,” Anthony said after Noah’s first practice with the New York Knicks. “Mentally, he pushes you; he forces you to compete at a high level every time on the basketball court. Everybody. Whether you’re the 14th, 15th man on the team, or myself, or Derrick [Rose] or anybody else. “Like, he pushes you to go out there and compete every play. If not, you’re going to hear about. I think that’s something we’ve been missing, this team needed, this organization needed and I like it. We like it.”
