Welcome to NBA Draft Day 2008! The Chicago Bulls have the number one pick this year as I assume most of you already know. They one the pick with a less than 2% chance of winning. Since they knew they would have the pick, they have stated that the choice would be between Michael Beasley and Derrick Rose, no one else would be invited to work out for the ball club.

So in case you have been out of the loop for the last month, heres some links to get you up to date and prepared for tonight’s draft:

BullsHome.com Rumors and Scenarios

  • Trade Rumor: Hinrich and Nocioni for Elton Brand: An early rumor that occurred shortly after the Bulls aquired the number one pick was the possibilty of this trade. If the Bulls were to draft Rose they would have to make some room at the guard position and Hinrich could be the man to go.
  • Scenarios if the Bulls Draft Rose: As stated above, the drafting of Rose could be followed by a trade or two to fill up some room. Here is a list of a few other possible moves.
  • Scenarios if the Bulls Draft Beasley: If the Bulls do decide to go with Beasley, there are a few things that could happen. Adding Beasley could cause a little bit of a jam at the forward position and would not upgrade the point guard position. Here is a list of a few possible moves if Beasley is selected.
