Bulls Get The First Pick In The NBA Draft, Who Will They Take?
May 21, 2008
The Bulls had a 1.7% chance to get the first pick in the NBA draft and they were able to move up 8 spots to get it. Now they have their pick of Derrick Rose or Mike Beasley.
Derrick Rose is from Chicago and he would get the fans and the city excited for next season. But wait a second, the Bulls already have Kirk Hinrich first off all. Plus they are already a jump shooting team so drafting a guard won’t seem to help them much although Gooden and Noah played pretty well down the stretch, plus they still have Aaron Gray.
Beasley would give them some volume lost post scoring which they haven’t had since Elton Brand was in town. He can also step back and shoot the basketball. I think he would be good alongside Deng and Noah in the frontcourt.
As much as people have talked about point guards the last few years because of Paul and Williams I think they should go with Beasley. They need low post scoring more than they need a guy to run the offense.
