That was really lame and cheesey. I was disgusted at him when he rattled off the number to buy tickets. He also seemed ungrateful at a number one pick, like they deserved it anyway.

they need both..Hinrich is ok..but I don't think you can pass on Rose. The Bulls are young and have a lot of talent, but never seem to utilize their full potential. Rose will make that happen

IMO, they are set at the guard position. They have Hinrich, Ben Gordon and Larry Hughes who was traded from Cleveland. They have traded Curry, Chandler and Ben Wallace in the past couple of years and really don't have anybody at the 1 or 2 position that can score. They drafted Noah last year, but he isn't much of a scoring threat.

Now the Bulls need a coach who won't do everything in his power to destroy the rook's confidence.

Like Greg Oden being the number one pick last year. That was a disaster.

I've always been a Bulls fan, but I've always hated the schmucks that ran the organization. I hate to say it, but basically they got lucky back in 84 when MJ fell right into their lap when Portland drafted Sam Bowie. The Jerry's alienated Pippen, MJ and Phil Jackson. And since then they have drafted worse than Carl for the most part and have traded away all of the players that would have worked out for them like Elton Brand.

In the long run it may not be too bad depending on how well Oden comes back from the injury.

The Bulls have to take Beasley, they need a big man badly.

No team will ever win without one....and you know what lets wait till Oden plays before we call that a bad pick.

You in todays game are alot more likely to win with Greg Oden as your centerpiece than Durant.

1 and 2 are the guard positions, 4 and 5 is down low.

I agree. They have badly needed a low post scorer ever since they traded Brand.

Also for the record, Derrick Rose game doesn't translate that well to the NBA if anyone thinks he's Chris Paul they're mistaken..

His T/O ratio isn't that great he's a blah foul shooter and he doesn't have 3 range, he needs some developing for the NBA game. He has the body and the dribble drive but the rest he has to develop if he wants to be a top notch guy.

Basileus777 05-20-2008 06:54 PM

Rose's court vision is overrated, he isn't going to be a Chris Paul type passer. But since the handcheck rules were eliminated, quick point guards have become impossible to keep out of the lane.

But Beasley isn't the traditional big man either, he's an undersized scoring 4. He's a taller Melo.

A number one pick last year and we have to wait to see him play?

That statement alone says that was a bad pick.
