The Chicago Bulls Just Ate Your Balls

The Chicago Bulls only had a 1.7% chance of winning the first pick in last night's NBA draft lottery. They were supposed to pick ninth. Well, looks like two impossibly amazing things have happened to the Bulls in this complete disaster of a season. Someone took Ben Wallace off their hands and they just got Michael Beasley for Christmas... or Derrick Rose. Beasley actually fills Chicago's need for a low post scorer, but Rose is supposedly the next Jason Kidd... except he can actually shoot. The decision may come down to who the Bulls can trade from their current roster for the best deal. If they take Beasley, Gooden is almost certainly gone. If they go with Rose, you can say bye bye to Captain Kirk. And then there are restricted free agents Luol Deng and Ben Gordon to consider. Either way, the Bulls should field a young and exciting team next fall... just like every fall since they gave away Elton Brand. Let's just hope whomever they pick doesn't like motorcycles.
