Everyone wants to work with Hakeem “The Dream” Olajuwon.  Both Lebron James and Dwight Howard have gotten help from Olajuwon and now Joakim Noah is seeking pointers as well.  Read more after the jump.

Now, with the lockout, what are your plans? Do you feel like taking a break?

Joakim Noah: Not at all. I have to go back to Chicago to take care of some things but I’m going right back in the gym after this… I want to go see Hakeem and work with him

What do you want to work on with him?

Joakim Noah: Eveything! I have this tremendous chance of being able to work with the best. I have the best gyms and the best weight rooms at my disposal, so I have everything I need to make it. It’s all up to me to work harder now. Sometimes it’s boring, sometimes it’s hard, but that’s my job.

Have you discussed things with Hakeem yet?

Joakim Noah: Not yet, but that’s something I would really like to do. Everybody knows that he has helped the guys who have come to work out with him tremendously. Just to be able to live this experience would be great. We’ll see later if it helps me or not, but at least I will have tried everything I could to get better.
