Brett Davis / USA TODAY Sports

In an interview with ESPN's Lisa Salters, Joakim Noah's father, Yannick, became distracted by his son's defense on LeBron James, and then interrupted the live interview by breaking into a standing ovation after his son was fouled under the rim in transition.  

Here's Yannick's genuine reaction to Noah's strong sequence, handled perfectly by Salters, who simply gets out of the way.
