Most people (and draft boards) are assuming the Bulls will take Michael Beasley with the #1 overall pick. The logic is obvious, but slow your role just a bit ---- Derrick Rose is the right pick for Chicago.
Derrick Rose will save the Bulls
tremendousupsidepotential.com 5/21/2008 — I wonder who Phillips thinks the Bulls should take... I feel dirty. This whole thing is just completely filthy. It’s like blatantly cheating on a test that all your friends studied hours for, and you get an A while they all get Cs. That’s what the ...
Who's going No. 1?
construda.blogspot.com 5/21/2008 — This is an intriguing pick for the Chicago Bulls. Is Kansas State forward Michael Beasley finally the interior scoring threat Chicago so desperately needs? Or does point guard Derrick Rose fill the void of a true leader and become the conductor of the offense? The Bulls are jammed with young talent in the backcourt and at power forward. Will trades be made? Who will the new coach want?

arsenalist.com 5/21/2008 — The sun even shines on a dogs ass some days. The Bulls won the NBA lottery which sets the stage for John Paxson to do something really funky with the #1 pick - like drafting a Euro and ignoring the plethora of NCAA talent. Lightning doesn’t ...

2008 NBA Mock Draft —
Complete Sports
Here is my first edition of a mock draft for 2008! 1. Chicago Bulls - Derrick Rose (Memphis) Beasley seems to be a better fit, as the Bulls need a low-post scorer, but I simply think Derrick Rose is the better player. He's unstoppable in the open court, and if he ever develops a consistent jumpshot, he looks like a stronger version of Chris Paul (without quite the passing ability). Plus, ...

Grind It Out Sports
By: Chad Ruter
I admit, when the logo for the Chicago Bulls wasn’t revealed in the envelope that said “9″ on it, I started running around my apartment like a sugar-crazed five-year-old. The announcers re-iterated a fact that I already knew: the Bulls would be picking somewhere in the Top-3. I dropped to my knees and begged God not to leave us at three. Yes, it would be ...

Sometimes when you win you wish you hadn’t. Sometimes the prize isn’t worth the pressure. Sometimes winning puts you in a situation where choices must be made. Sometimes winning comes with responsibility.

2 days later, I still can't contain my excitement.
My Chicago Bulls hit the NBA Draft Lottery jackpot and are getting the chance to choose between drafting Memphis point guard Derrick Rose, or Kansas State forward Michael Beasley.
I'm in shock, and I think everybody was in shock aside from those who would say it was inevitable a team like the Bulls would get

Yellow Chair Sports
As upset as I was when Mike D'Antoni first signed on as the Knicks' coach, I, like most Bulls fans, am all the more pissed ever since the Bulls' ping pong balls proved to be this year's version of the '07 Blazers' ping pong balls . D'Antoni made his panting lust for Derrick Rose well-known prior to the lottery, and it would have been a near certainty that the Bulls would be drafting him next ...

Image is from the Chris Farley page . So there's hope again in Chi-town, and perhaps rightfully so. Did any team experience more disappointment than these Bulls? You could argue for the Suns or Hornets, but at least those teams made the playoffs. You could argue for the Warriors, but we all know they just got the short end of the stick on that one. There were calls for the Bulls to win the ...

Foul Balls
Okay, so I was looking for other stories out there to write about, but damn it, I'm just too excited about the Bulls getting the first pick in the draft. It's all I can really think about at this point (who needs a coach?).
As I said in the earlier post, I'm leaning towards Derrick Rose with the pick. There are plenty of reasons for this. Most importantly than any other, is that I really
What Should The Bulls Do? —

Via Blog-A-Bull :
It’s only been a couple hours. I think the high has come down (a bit), and I’m starting to try and actually think about what the Bulls really should (and will) do.
It’s early, but so far it isn’t a situation where I knee-jerkedly say “take Rose” (which I did), and then as time goes on I start to think more and more about Beasley. ...

Sportaphile
After everyone hoping for a Miami resurgence, it is not so. With less than a 2% chance of winning the #1 spot, the Chicago Bulls got it. So it’s either Derrick Rose or Michael Beasley, right? The Bulls have enough good guards that this seems to be a no-brainer. Take Beasley and they have a low post scoring option.
The rest of the lottery draft order: Seattle, ...

BULLS WIN LOTTERY: ROSE BACK HOME? —
goodmanonfox's blog listings.
The Chicago Bulls won the NBA Draft Lottery and hold the No. 1 pick in the June 26 draft. How about the Bulls bringing point guard Derrick Rose back home to Chicago? The Bulls could actually use both Rose or co-No. 1 pick Michael Beasley, but it would be difficult to imagine passing on a local star such as Rose - especially when the Bulls could still use an athletic floor leader.
