Beasley will be the best player in this draft by a mile. In his first summer league game 28pts 10 boards, he is making Noah look like a complete stiff.....which, I guess he is... DD
I've said from the beginning that Beasley will have a better rookie season than Durant and is almost a lock for Rookie of the Year. Long term we will see. Chris Paul and Deron Williams didn't take the NBA by storm. BTW, I say Beasley is the favorite for R.O.Y. and that includes Greg Oden.
Beasley ,of course,the bulls are always foolish enough to leave the best rookie to the 2nd pick.Just as they did in 99 ,they picked Brand who is by no means better than francis.Francis is the best rookie in 99,even Odom may be better than Brand whose position is PF yet has a height of SF. Beasley is the best 2nd draft among all the 2nd drafts of recent years,from 2000's swift on. In other words ,Francis is the best 2nd draft since NBA apears on this planet.
Man, I hope you are right, but we would be lucky if the 28th player picked in the first round is even in the rotation in the next 3 years...that would be seriously beating the odds. DD
