NBA Draft 08: Draft for needs or fan support?

Out of all the pro's and con's of both of these players, hometown is probably a 0.001% factor in the selection. Or at least it should be.

Nick makes it clear, they are selling tickets already. It would be different if Chicago were a new franchise trying to create patriotism. Like Charlotte a couple of years back drafting Felton and May...

Could you see teams trading to get a hometown player from a rival? Doesn't happen.

Chicago takes the player they feel is the best in the draft.

I'd hate the job because one day i'm all over Rose, then i worry about his shooting and i'm back on B-easy.

Then i worry how his game translates to the pros- is he a 3 or a 4, is he a new age 4? what about his attitude? and just like that i'm on Rose again.

Though he does have that shaky jumper....

The main reason you'd want Beasley is because the bulls have Heinrich. While Kirk isn't exactly the standout he was in his first few seasons; he still does the job they need him to do.

For all we know there could be a trade on draft day for either. Could end up seeing Beasley in a Lakers or Spurs uniform. Crazy shit like this happens you know.

Does anyone know the draw for Year 10 Knockout and also are their any favourites to take it out?
