Bulls Get the #1 Pick

Okay, for those of you who don’t know, I’m a huge Chicago Bulls fan. But it’s been quite a while since I had anything to get excited about. I mean, we don’t even have a coach right now, for poop’s sake.
But in an amazing turn of events, the Bulls have won the draft lottery and will have the first overall pick in the next NBA draft.
Who should they take, though? For my money, there are really only 2 options:
1. Michael Beasley out of Kansas State.
2. Derrick Rose out of Memphis.
For the Bulls, I think the obvious choice is Beasley. Chicago already has two great guards in Ben Gordon and Kirk Hinrich. Going after Derrick Rose would give them a guard surplus, with one of them riding the bench. Not a good situation.
But the Bulls could really use Beasley. They have Luol Deng at small forward, and he does a good job. Beasley might make a good power forward, though. And in the Eastern Conference, they are no great power forwards, so Beasley could shine quickly in the East.
More good thoughts on the situation here.
Either way, things are looking up for Chicago. Maybe not this year, but soon…
