NBA Draft...

[Underground_Network]

...starts in 32 minutes...

So, who do you think will go first? Derrick Rose, or Michael Beasley?

[Bobby]

Between the two, I would have to pick Rose. I think the Bulls need a point guard much more than a forward

Countdown... 5 minutes...

And I agree, Rose is the more logical pick in that sense, but Beasley is amazingly talented and has great potential. Either way, both look like great first picks. Rose has an insane basketball IQ for someone his age. Any thoughts on Danilo Gallinari? Some claim because he is an international player, it will take him longer to understand the "American" version of the game vs. the "European" version of the game. Does his talent make up for that, or no?

[Bobby]

Gallinari is used to playing in European basketball, which is not as tough as American basketball. While he might be very talented, he will need to do a lot of work to build up to the level of strength and endurance of most American Players.

[Bobby]

Me neither.

Have you been to that site? They have some mock drafts and a lot of player info. Check it out.

I checked a site similar to that [if not that exact site] awhile ago, but I haven't looked at a recent mock draft [since about a month ago]. I'll check it out.

[Bobby]

They have Rose, then Beasley, then Mayo. And I'm pretty much thinking that's how it's gonna go.

^^ Yeah, but it'll be interesting to see if the Heat trade their pick and what Minnesota is going to do.
