VOTE FOR 2 in a post!

The top 2 draft classes will move on. The top 2 will be the 2 that reach 7 votes first.

Vote based on accomplishments + talent/skill level.

1982, Mark Eaton. All time BPG leader. Quientin Dailey :smh: The worst chucker in Bulls history, he made Pargo look unselfish IMO. I would take Mark over Quin.

1983, Manute Bol. Different role, but a case can be made for him over

1986, Dell Curry and Duckworth also make a good case. Skiles...was....not....that....good. Break the ast record and get overhyped for a career.

1989, Dino Radja should be on that list. He came the the US late. BJ is our boy, but I would knock him off for Dino. To this day, I would have drafted Mookie over BJ(and never taken King). The 1989 draft is the one Bulls draft that I relive over and over.


edit: 84 and 85, with 87 a close 3rd.
