Just a thought, don't kill me.

I was of the few that wanted Beasley because that's exactly what we needed at the time. I see that that was a mistake because Rose has really turned into something special.

As of right now, I'm not convinced that our current lineup can win a Championship. We need a shooting guard! How is Bogans a Starting Shooting Guard and cannot Shoot??

Could the lineup back then have won a championship??

Just a question...

Gordon would have been gone, either way.

Beasley is a very nice talent......but he can't play on Rose's level with this team.

Not a chance. Rose is so much better than Beasley right now and we are only looking at a semi longshot to get to the conference finals. We're still a shooting guard away, but that core from the pre-Rose era was pretty much everything away. They definitely had us fooled though, I thought Hinrich, Gordon, and Deng would take us to the conference finals for several years.

Beasley's actually quite good. His attitude and his off court issues is what most teams aren't interested in. Either way, Rose is better, but Beasley's very good as well

And to answer the question, I don't think we could win it without Rose, plus our main scorer Ben G. would be gone

No one should kill you but is this really even a debate? I thank the good Lord everyday for Rose and that Beasley is not in a Bulls uniform.

up to the draft, i was terrified that we might stick with hinrich, and not go with rose. i was so relieved when i heard those words "with the number 1 pick in the draft, chicago chooses... "

I'll take Option C, if we took Rose then dumped all of Deng/Gordon/Kirk, tanking for a good pick in the next draft. Draft Curry, then get Wade/LeBron/Bosh to all come here like Miami did.

Rose/Wade/LeBron/Bosh/Noah with Curry as the 6th man looks OK to me. ;)

As do I. Regardless they are both great talents......but it's obvious Rose is better.

I would not even bother watching a single game if that was our lineup.. No point. I would probably renounce the NBA and never watch another game. Wheres the competitive nature gone?? You wanna add D.Howard too??

But yeah Rose over Beasley..

The only upgrade in the Beasley lineup is Gordon.

comparing b-ez to rose is comparable to comparing gerald wallace to dwight howard. yeah they're both good talents, but rose is just immeasurably better.

Rose was too good to pass up...Regardless of what we "Needed" and Beasley is NOT A PF so drafting him to be the PF would have FAILED!

Beasley is a SF and with the T'Wolves he is developing into a very good one but I am very happy with Rose so it is no need to think "WHAT IF"

Beasley is a combo forward, even on the Thimberwolves he plays nearly half his minutes at PF with Love at C.
