The Bulls beat the odds and won the lottery!!! They'd be stupid not to draft Beasley. They've been deficient of an inside presence for awhile and that is exactly what this team needs. Hinrich, Gordon, Deng, Noah/Thomas, Beasley. That is a team that can be good for years. But, the real question is who would you draft/ who do you want your team to draft?

Yes! Bilas was on saying that the Bulls should pick Rose. How does that help them? He could be the next Chris Paul/Deron Williams but the Bulls would still be lacking an inside presence and it'd be back to square one. Take Beasley!

psst...he went to Duke, he can't help it. If he doesn't shoot three's the **** him. Seriously, I don't mind Bilas, but I think Beasley is the better pick for Chicago, though I think Rose could have the better career.

It's a 2 player draft, so as usual the Timberwolves pick #3. xoopsx

I must break my silence on this one.
Draft Rose. He is mature and responsible and not a head case like Eddy Curry was/is. Curry was more worried about his reputation when he was here in highschool and even moreso when he was on the Bulls. His family did not look out for him. He had his posse and they acted like immature idiots. Derek Rose is a smart kid who did well in school, and has a great support system with his older brothers. He has no posse and it is next to impossible to get near the kid and 'poison' him b/c of the support system his brothers have setup.
You draft him for the exact reason some of you are saying not to draft him (Bulls already have guards). You trade Hinrich's sorry ass, get rid of Gordon as well (too small and can't play defense). Start Sefolosha and Rose with Duhon as the back-up. When you trade Cap'n Heimlich and Gordon you get a proven big man.
And yea yea, I broke my few months of silence yadda yadda yadda.
And yes, I deserve rep for it xwhistlex

I agree with the invisible man here with one exception - I would give Heinrich a shot at shooting guard. Heinrich was a SG at Kansas and I believe before that as well. He is a natural shooting guard, and paired with Rose gives them two excellent defenders in the backcourt. It would also give Sefolosha a little more time to develop and he hasn't proven he's an NBA starter yet.

88: You are right he was a SG in Lawrence, but he is too small for that position in the NBA. And don't forget Agent 0 is a free agent this year as well. What about him and Rose in the backcourt working out a sign and trade with Washington?

The Bulls have Agent 0 money? If they do he would fit well at SG.

Right now they're only about $4 million under, but if they trade Gordon and Hinrich (about $16 million combined) to Washington then we have $20million for the year.

I've heard lots of talk about making trades to get Brand back. I think IF you could trade Hinrich, Thomas/Noah, and one other player for Brand then you definitely pick Rose. Rose, Gordon, Deng, Noah/Thomas, Brand. Would be a great team, but a lot of these trade ideas seem a bit far fetched. Some people were thinking the bulls should go after Melo
