VIDEO: Joakim Noah even defends from the bench

The Chicago Bulls beat the Toronto Raptors on the back of their offense on Monday night, hanging a franchise-record 49 points in the fourth quarter of their 129-120 victory.
The high-scoring total doesn't mean the defensive effort wasn't there, though. Reigning Defensive Player of the Year Joakim Noah takes no plays off on that end and simply won't allow his teammates to, either.
To wit, check out Noah trying to guard Terrence Ross' 3-point attempt late in the third quarter, even though Noah was on the bench at the time.
Noah stays being the weirdest, which is a big part of what makes him one of the best.
