Holy Frozen Envelope, People - The Chicago Bulls Get The #1 Draft Pick In The Lotto

Posted May 20, 2008 on HoopsHoncho's Blog:
I think I speak for everyone in saying "OMG! - WTF?" I personally think that even the T-WOLVES should have gotten the #1 pick over the Bulls, if only for the sympathy vote of the GM clutching the teddy bear of a devout child fan hospitalized with cancer. The order in which the Draft picks will be chosen is as follows: 1) CHICAGO BULLS 2) MIAMI HEAT 3) MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES 4) SEATTLE SUPERSONICS 5) MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES 6) NEW YORK KNICKS 7) LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS 8) MILWAUKEE BUCKS 9) CHARLOTTE BOBCATS 10) NEW JERSEY NETS (+ they get DALLAS'S 1st rd pick from the Jason Kidd deal) 11) INDIANA PACERS 12) SACRAMENTO KINGS 13) PORTLAND TRAILBLAZERS 14) GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS Preliminarily, I'm going to say that I think Chicago should pick Derrick Rose (PG, 6'3/205 lbs, 19 yrs old) from Memphis, Kevin Love (C, 6'10/275 lbs, 19 yrs old) from UCLA or DJ Augustin (PG - 6-0/180 lbs, 20 yrs old) from TX. The Bulls could definitely use some height on their team since their tallest player (Aaron Gray 7'0) is kinda worthless & Joakim Noah just isn't doing enough. Kevin Love avg'd 17.5 last season, DJ pulled 19.2 and Derrick Rose had 14.9. While Rose is QUICK and that surely makes up for the lack of points, Chicago isn't really a run and gun kinda team so I'm not completely sure he'd totally fit in there with the way they play now. That is, unless they're plotting a new strategy behind closed doors with the soon-to-be-named coach. (SPECULATORS UNITE!!) Like I said, just a preliminary "throw it out there" thought. I'm working on a whole breakdown of "who should go where" so look for that to be posted/published within the week. Happy Drafting, everyone! GOOOOO CELTICS! :-)
