New York Knicks and free agent center Joakim Noah agree to a fully guaranteed four-year, $72 million deal, per league source. No options.

Not really new news that he's heading for New York, finally agreed on framework.

No worries on how his play regressed? I'm a huge fan of Robin Lopez, and I see this as a big downgrade in their front court.

Hopefully, for them, Noah provides enough to make up for it and Rose does as well. But this is a huge contract for someone who's been on a steady decline for some time now and often injured.

Yeah, Joakim has declined some but I still like him more than R.Lopez ... and I absolutely love Noah personality wise & leadership wise and what he will bring to that Knicks team. A true character and genuine team first guy. Someone you want on your side in difficult moments.

That said, I wouldn't pay Joakim that money. Too many years.
