Joakim Noah believes the Knicks can make a playoff run, and doesn’t think management should be thinking about rebuilding yet.
“We’re not there right now,” Noah said. “We’re a team that we’ve got to stay in the moment, got to stay focused.”
Noah would appear to be one of the safe players if team president Phil Jackson decides to overhaul the roster before the Feb. 23 trade deadline. Noah signed a four-year, $72 million contract and has underperformed. It would be difficult to move him even if the Knicks tried.
It’s no secret, though, that Carmelo Anthony is being shopped.
