Ok the draft is a week away, who should the Bulls take, and who will the Bulls?

I think the Bulls will nab Rose, but you can't go wrong either way.

I went with Beasley, in the back-court the Bulls have Hinrich, Hughes, Sefolosha, and then Gordon and Duhon who are free agents, but on the block they have Aaron Gray, Joakim Noah, Tyrus Thomas and Drew Gooden. Beasley fills a bigger need.

I agree that he fills a bigger need, but everything you hear says the Bulls are going Rose.

They are? There were reports on SI like a week after the Bulls won the lotto that they were taking Beasley.

[Bryan88]

Most mock drafts that I have seen and a lot of the experts are saying that Rose is the guy. On top of all that, I think Rose has only worked out for the Bulls at this point. The Bulls are maintaining they haven't made up their mind, and with the coaching change and all I don't know if anybody knows exactly what they are thinking now. However it does seem like the majority of people are saying Rose.

here are a couple mock drafts

The Bulls have worked them both out (Beasley first), but who knows, it could go either way, I hope it's Beasley.

I meant that the Bulls are the only team that Rose has worked out for, but yeah I agree it could go either way.

Hopefully they take neither and go with OJ Mayo.

You're kidding right, they don't need a two guard and Beasley and Rose are far and away better players, they don't need another guard and if they take one it should Rose.

I would be fine with that scenario.

[bears9]

The Bulls' worked out Rose today, and I guess he was very, very good. And there are reports that they are leaning towards taking him come Thursday.

That's the reason I said Mayo. He's pretty much NBA ready while Rose may take a little longer to adjust. But if not , I hope they take Rose over Beasley. More athletic.
