The Chicago Bulls would like to re-sign Joakim Noah on a short-term deal.

Noah has been a favorite player and ambassador of Jerry Reinsdorf, while John Paxson has a genuine bond with Noah.

The Bulls are more likely to part ways with Pau Gasol this offseason despite having the chance to trade him to the Sacramento Kings at the deadline.

Noah remains invested enough in the team to question Jimmy Butler and Derrick Rose for their silence at the April 3 team meeting.
