And I can't imagine drafting a guy like Edey. He's hard to watch for me.

Nah he's not really a prospect. Slow feet. About 40 years ago he'd be getting #1 pick hype though.

I'm a little concerned with all of the chatter surrounding the Bulls at the trade deadline. If they decide to do a reset it could give them a better shot at a top-4 pick in the draft, which would end up screwing us out of an extra lottery pick this year. I want the Bulls to be bad enough to be in the lottery, but not so bad they increase their chances of getting lucky! I'm kind of rooting for them to make the play-in just because of the lottery implications, but I want us to make the play-in too. 

I want a top-4 pick with our pick AND one of the shooters projected to go in the 9-13 range with theirs! Okay, maybe that is a little greedy; but we've been waiting 10 years for a good team, so I want ALL the options potentially available to us!

We should trade theirs now along with Bamba, TRoss, Okeke, RJ, and some seconds and get a player(s) that fits out core. We don't need 2-3 rookies, just 1 great one.

I would not worry too much about that.....

Bulls should be close to a .500 team / a play-in team AND a lottery team. 

A 10 thru 14 pick is highly probable.

I think I've seen Jett Howard in this range....think this would be a good pick for us.

CT....GIVES US SOME NAMES.

THE OLDEST PLAYER IN THIS LIST IS JUST 20.1. THIS TO ME IS SIMPLY HARD TO BELIEVE. THERE GOT TO BE MORE SEASONED PLAYERS, MORE READY, LATER IN THE DRAFT.
