Celtics coach Brad Stevens noted how six Bulls have played in NCAA championship games.

And Stevens saved special praise for the only one who won two titles.

“How often do you have a guy that’s even mentioned as an MVP candidate that averages what he averages point-wise?” Stevens said of Joakim Noah and his 12.4 points-per-game average. “I think that tells you what Noah has meant to this team since (Derrick) Rose has been out and (Luol) Deng got traded. They haven’t skipped a beat.”
