If you have not already seen CSN's inside look at Joakim Noah...
"I got kicked out of preschool for having too much imagination"
"It's kind of hard to blend in when you're 7ft tall and have all this hair"
"If I weren't playing basketball, I'd probably be selling fruit on the beach"
Ethan says this is evidence that they're [Sarah and Joakim] boning. While I'm not sure about that, I do think this is Joakim's way of opening the gates of love with Sarah. Especially when she says his name and job title and he goes "Mmmmm." All it would've needed at the end is a "and you'd be there with me, Sarah. In a coconut bra and a hula skirt. Would you come with me?" - Conall
ReplyDeleteThanks to Conall for transcribing the plans of the coconut server

Sarah Kustok: If there was no basketball, though, what would you be doing?
Joakim: (deep breath and sigh)...It's a tough one, (very pensive) but ummm, prolly, um, selling some fruit, on the beach, or something like that, something--
SK: --Fruit?
J: --more laid back. Yeh, some fruit juices, something like that--coconuts. Would you like a coconut?
SK: And would you grow the trees, what, coconut trees? Is that what they call them?
J: Palm trees.
SK: Palm trees. Yeh some trees. (laughs)
J: Yeh, coco--go pick up the coconuts, you know? Put a straw in it, you know? Ask the tourists if they want some.
SK: So you'd serve it too?
J: Yeh
SK: Ok, sounds like a plan, um--
J: --Pretty good, right?
SK: I think that's good--
J:--That's--that's a--that's a good quality of life right there.
SK: So what would the actual job be called? What would your job title be? Coconut server?
J: (Pause) Yeh. (pause) I'm a coconut server.
SK: (laughs) I love it.
J: Great quality of life. Chillin on a beach--
SK: What beach? Any beach in particular?
J: A very nice one.
SK: It doesn't matter where, though?
J: No, it does matter where....um, maybe in Hawaii somewhere.
SK: Ok. Joakim Noah, the coconut server in Hawaii.
J: Mmmmm.
SK: That does sound nice
J: Good quality of life right there.
It's time for him to return.
Worst part of this interview is the fact that Sara Kustok is confused by the concept that coconuts come from palm trees, and not "coconut trees". Guess Joakim doesn't pick them for their brains, though. (Just kidding, they're not hooking up, I'm sure Joakim flirts with every female sportscaster.)
ReplyDeleteAlso, while I want Joakim back as much as anyone, this is worth pointing out:
Bulls W/Joakim: 16-8
Bulls w/o Joakim: 19-8
I know it's only 9 games, but...
ReplyDeleteBulls w/ Joakim & Boozer: 7-2. The two losses came upon Boozer's return, back to back against Orlando and Boston, while beating OKC and LA.
