Joakim Noah = Letty Ortiz
Letty Ortiz is one of the best action film stars of all time and Joakim Noah would probably be in the same boat if he took up acting. (This feels like a good time to mention that I’m convinced Noah would be an excellent pickup for the “John Wick” movie franchise. Just picture him running around with Keanu Reeves. Pure magic.)
Ortiz (played by Michelle Rodriguez) has the rare and invaluable ability to carry scenes all by herself as the lead or be brilliant in the background as a sidekick. Has that ever rang more true for a Bull than Joakim Noah?
Noah was one of those guys that could score four points but do all of the dirty work that helped the team win. But when he was needed, he could also be the best player on the court in any given game.
Letty shows this in nearly all of the movies. She’ll frequently be used as a sidekick — someone to help the team in the little, unappreciated ways — but she can also be the best character on screen, like when she fought Ronda Rousey in “Furious 7.” Everyone loves Letty, and every Bulls fan loves Joakim Noah.
