Bulls get #1 pick 

Post#1 » by DraftBoy10 » Wed May 21, 2008 2:26 am

Go for Rose? If so, is Kirk out, if so, can we get him? If so, what's the cost?

IF SO.

I dont think they go Rose unless they trade Kirk. But the most logical choice for them is to draft Beasley.

I think they will go Rose, they have a lot of depth at PF, it would be nice to have a player like Rose on that team. Rose-Gordan-Deng-Gooden-Noah looks alright but I think they need to still get rid of other players on that team. Btw, Kirk doesn't look like he will cost that much, I think we can make a run for him, but is that what we want, or do we want a scorer?

I hope they make Hinrich available. We could use him badly.

Hinrich played horrible last year and the whole season he didn't show any sign of rebounding. He's contract is too long and pricey. If Chicago drafted Beasley and we could go for Tyrus Thomas.

I think they should go Beasley, but I dont think they are giving up on Thomas this early,

Chicago likes Noah, if the price is right they will definitely give up Thomas.

I think he just needs a change of scenery.

The previous season he was arguably the best PG defender in the league and over 40% from downtown. Realistically he's the best PG option that we could get. He'd be an upgrade over Rafer defensively and offensively.

They are picking Rose. Too good to pass up, I'd say. They'd probably keep Kirk and let him or Rose be the backup. I'd say they might package up deng or gordon and duhon and some other peeps if they want to make a trade. They need a presence inside bad!! I wish they would of pryed Gasol away from MEM instead of the Lakers. =/ How about we pick up gordon? Him and Deng are too greedy for me, but there's no denying their talents.

me thinks that tyrus would be a good fit here, especially playing as a backup to yao. we could stilll be a running team. worst possible scenario, he turns into stromile swift: the sequel.

I personally think that the Bulls go after Rose. Point guards like that don't come along too often, and they need one BADLY. It helps that the kid is from Chicago.

They've been trying to trade Gordon for years, and now they'll have an excuse to deal him in a sign and trade for someone. This also spells the end of Chris Duhon.

They'll keep Hinrich. He's a base year player, which makes him extremely hard to trade. Besides, he'd be great to mentor the rook. They can trade him next year. Chicago will come to terms with Deng to play at 3.

They actually won't have a bad team. They just need another big.

1 - Rose / Hinrich
2 - Hughes / Sefolosha
3 - Deng / Nocioni
4 - Gooden / Thomas
5 - Noah / Gray

Duhon's Bull career was over regardless of what draft position they got.

Definitely gonna go after Rose. You look at what guys like Paul and Williams have done. Rose is arguably better than those two guys were coming out. I don't think they pass on that. Its the age of the point guards right now.

So that means Hinrich will likely be on the block. And I am sure Morey will do what he can to acquire him.

Deng needs a decent PG to create for him

Someone like Rose is essential to having an efficient Deng

Good PGs dont come available that often

Bulls should take Rose & move Kirk to SG

Hinrich in no upgrade to Alston

I would rather go for the kid out of Minnesota, he is going to be the next CP3

Bobby Jackson is from Minnesota but we already have him (unfortunately)
