Rose to the Bulls
It’s a done deal. The Bulls are going to take Derrick Rose with the 1st pick of the draft. It is time they gave up on Hinrich and dealt him elsewhere and let Rose run the show. The reason this is so cut and dry with me is because Chicago is Rose’s hometown. He’s lived there his entire life until he chose Memphis over Illinois for his brief college career.
The last time this happened was when Cleveland ended up with the top pick and were able to select Lebron James after he was a high school legend there. Rose won a couple state titles at Simeon high school and is a legend and now he needs to play on with the Bulls. He’ll have some athletes to play with who can run with him in Tyrus Thomas, Ben Gordon, Luol Deng and others. They can now play a faster pace which is reportedly what new coach Vinnie Del Negro wants to do.
Derrick Rose will be the 1st pick in the draft on Thursday by the Chicago Bulls and if he isn’t then Paxson is the next high exec to be pushed out the door. The chance to draft a local legend doesn’t come around very often and they better not mess it up.
