Joakim Noah Not Into Addressing 'Gossip' Of Carmelo Recruitment
(CBS) Asked Friday about a report that he'd recruited Knicks star and Carmelo Anthony to Chicago during All-Star weekend, Bulls center Joakim Noah responded by saying he wasn't into addressing "gossip," according to the Chicago Tribune.
"I feel a lot of gossip," Noah said, according to the Tribune. "I think we all know that we're in a good place. Our team is in a good place. We've got a healthy group, it's a healthy environment, and we're not going to let gossip get in the way of what we're doing.

Noah added it "doesn't matter" if the report is true, the Tribune reported.
Coach Tom Thibodeau called the speculation "nonsense."
