Still quite close to the world of basketball, Joakim Noah continues to follow the competitions, including the last Olympic Games.
The opportunity for him to see LeBron James, or even the performance of France. He had things to say.
We still remember the performance of Stephen Curry, who caught fire in the final moments with a few three-point shots.
The point guard is also the first to be happy with his performance, as proven by his recent admission.
Without the Chief, perhaps Vincent Collet’s men had a real chance of winning gold.
Serbia also had a chance in the semi-finals, but the fact is that Team USA assumed its status in the end.
Many people were able to see this performance, including Joakim Noah, who clearly consumes a lot of basketball as a retiree.

Joakim Noah on the Olympic final (USA Today): “I thought it was an incredible match. Seeing Stephen Curry and LeBron James play on the same court after all these great moments that they were able to bring us, it was really powerful.
Especially after the way Steph ended this game. We were able to see his greatness in action in front of everyone. ”

When you play in big games like that, all it does is inspire the next generation and I think basketball is really in a good position.”
Noah is therefore impressed by this French team, which could motivate people in the years to come for the next generation.
This is undoubtedly true, especially with the rise of Victor Wembanyama. And despite the departure of Collet or Nicolas Batum, the best is yet to come for this team.
Joakim Noah is clearly under the spell of this French team, aware that they have had a magnificent tournament, and this despite a brutal end against an immense Stephen Curry. But why not a rematch in 4 years.
