Smart move on Rose's part, you never know what the Bulls will do and he is better off making sure the Heat are comfortable with him. Also they will be taking a look at Mayo this weekend as well.
On the Beat: Miami Heat Quote:
A day after hearing word out of Derrick Rose's camp that there was little interest in visiting Miami, the Heat will get its look at its preferred target in Thursday's NBA draft. But a face-to-face session in Los Angeles this weekend - Not Miami - might do little to change Rose's view of the draft.
Rose, a remarkable point guard prospect who led the University of Memphis to the National title game, wants to play for his hometown Chicago Bulls, who own the No. 1 pick in the draft. He made that very clear following his two-day workout in Chicago a couple of days ago.
He compared the possibility of being picked first overall by Chicago to the 2003 draft when Cleveland picked Ohio native LeBron James. Rose went as far as to say he would "hate it" if the Bulls bypassed him for Kansas State forward Michael Beasley.
