2008 NBA Draft Lottery Thread

Earl Barron and JWill awesome! Barron is awesome.

Also I'd def. take Beasley seeing as Nocioni and whoever else is expiring might not even come back. To have the insurance.

Was that sarcasm? Lol I can't tell. Barron is alright, but a bench warmer unless he develops a post game and some defense. JWill is old now, but, might have something left in him.

I don't know why they would take Rose, they have Hinrich. They would probably move him if they did.

Beasley would make sense IMO.

If the Bulls take Rose look for them to trade Hinrich, yea Beasley will be a great addition but Rose could let them make some trades and get even better.

 

[RipCity32]

I'd rather take my chances with Beasley.

You never know if you aren't able to trade Hinrich, then you would be screwed.

I think Beasley is going to have a better NBA career, IMO.

No I like Barron, dude ripped it up a couple of summer leagues ago. Been a fan ever since. And JWill is old, but I liked him back in the Kings days, him and Webber...they were just awesome.

Oh ok cool, I love Barron and I hope the best for him but I don't see him making it far on our team, I hope I'm wrong.

As for the Beasley vs. Rose, the need pick is Beasley and IMO he should be the pick so they have some post presence and they can trade players like Gooden and Tyrus Thomas. But, a lot of people seem to think they will go with Rose and trade Hinrich, and IMO, they shouldn't give up on Hinrich just yet. But, heck, they should trade Hinrich to the Heat and then let the Heat pick Beasley ! What a pipe dream, lol.

Yea, Barron got alot of minutes towards the end, but he was really inconsistent.

Yea, the Bulls need Beasley. I think they will take him, unless they make some trades to prove otherwise.

I cant get over the fact that there have only be two times since '94 where the team with the worst record has got the #1 pick....Chicago had less than a 2% chance...effing crazy

 

[DJT]

I know. I love it. Helps from teams tanking...even though the system didn't beat Miami this year.

Tanking is a huge problem in Aussie Rules Football in Australia. If you win less than 5 games (out of 22) two seasons in a row or something, you are actually guaranteed the number 1 pick. Always accusations of taking near the end of every seasoon.

 

[DJT]

Dang that stinks. I wonder why they don't change that?

 

[Mexi]

everytinme i see Beasley being compared to DC i go "uh oh"
DC was great in college, as was Beasley
i still think Beasley will be a star though

 

[DJT]

Yea really. Derrick Coleman. I laughed at that. I was like Rose to Deron Williams, Beasley to Coleman???? WTF

 

[Mexi]

i know
when they said Rose was a "more dynamic deron williams" my jaw dropped
i said whoever gets number 1 better pick his ass up!

 

[RipCity32]

Uh-oh in a bad way?

Coleman was a great NBA player at his prime.

 

[-Torres-]

CHicago should take Beasley, Hinrich is still one of the better points in the league, plus they need inside scoring. Plus I want to see the Heat get Rose, the Heat drastically need a PG, and Rose would fit perfect with Wade and Marion.

 

[Mexi]

yeah i guess he was pretty good
its just they've been talking about Beasley like he's the next BEST player in the League.
i was just expecting more lol

Beasley to me is kinda like a Dirk/Rasheed mix

 

[Mexi]

Bulls should take Rose and try to get a Low Post scorer via trade or FA
let Gordon walk and get Brand...idk something
i just think Rose is too good to pass up

Lol that's a new one. I've heard a few comparisions to him.

Carmelo Anthony
Amare Stoudemire/Antawn Jamison
Dirk Nowitzki/Rasheed Wallace
Derrick Coleman
