Bowie over Jordan no 2?

I here ya with this call. However, Im not so sure. This will be a great hindsight call I think. As they are both so young, you never really know how their games with go in the big league.
The bullies were desperate for a prototype pg, and they certainly appear to have gotten that with Rose.
From my view point, it will be nice having a pg who can actually take it to the rack and DUNK/finish.
Hometown boy obviously made the decision a little easier, despite what Poxson has said to the media on that subject.

As for Beasley, it will be interesting to see how well he bangs against the bigger bodies. He certainly can shoot the lights out, but at 6 8", he is more of a 3 man. If he been a genuine 6 10", the story may have been different. Guys like Charles and Brand have made a living out of being short power forwards, but the Bulls dont appear to have given up on TT at the 4. Sidebar - Beasley fractured sternum 30 mins into first practice....oh my!

If Rose turns out to be a bigger version of CP3, this may be the biggest no brainer of the decade.

Justified, seeing as the last point guard we drafted nearly had his leg amputated after a motorbike crash!

Looks like Scott Ninnis and Paul Bell have soem mates, with Darren Jarman today resigning as Crows assistant coach, to join his brother Andrew in setting up a football academy.

Ok, I need to get on this franchise, and are calling for people interested in "opinionated on everything, knowledgable on nothing" academy. :)
