Who should the Bulls snag at #4?  Could they become relevant again?  Ty.

A white guy

[GB Warrior]

Pacers

A white guy

Should trade that top 5 pick for Zubac like the Pacers did

[Jockey]

A TALL white guy

I think Ben Gold as #4 pick makes sense.

Mike Brown deserves a lot of credit for changing the Knicks' offense.  Brunson is exerting a lot less energy, and he's just as comfortable playing off the ball in their sets.

#4 is a really tough decision woth all the players that will be available.  The experts seem to love Caleb Wilson.  I dunno.  There are several dynamic guards that will be available.

Would you go Acuff or Wagler if they take a guard?

They should take Nick Boyd

They have issues but they're not that incompetent. 

[MuggsyB]

Wow.  Wemby ejected.  And rightly so.  WTF was he thinking??

[tower912]

Angry thoughts.

[MuggsyB]

Angry thoughts.

Why would he be angry Tower?  Very disappointing.

Acuff is gonna be a superstar, but the Bulls have Giddey under contract for the next 3 years at big money so drafting a PG doesn't make sense.  I think Wilson makes a ton of sense.  He's got a huge ceiling.

I've been plenty wrong before, but I'm a bit wary of Wagler.  I think he'll be a productive player, but he doesn't seem overly athletic.  Some of the comps I see for him are ridiculous (SGA, Haliburton), to me he feels like Ty Jerome/Austin Rivers.  Both solid players but not top 5 pick worthy, IMO.  Meanwhile I think Acuff is a top 5 PG in the league by year 3-4

Giddey had pretty good stats....but is he a deep playoff run PG?  I just don't know.  I guess the Bulls need help everywhere.

I ponder that all the time.

Maybe he just snapped for some reason? I didn't expect that at all.

The Bull's VP basically said today they need help everywhere. Giddy is good but his contract is reasonable and he could be upgraded upon.

I like the new VP's statement that need will not factor into the pick.

I like that thought process.  If the top 3 go as planned, who would you say is the most talented player available?  Acuff?

[Jay Bee]

Howl! 3 game series

Wemby was tossed and lost it.  That's how.

Trade it for Patrick Williams

I'm not dialed into the draft so much but size would be my tie breaker so that could tip the scale towards Wilson. I think Acuff is the best of the guards, so I'd trust the process if he's the selection.

There have been a few things I've read that seem to think Wilson could break up the assumed top 3.  He may have a bigger upside than Boozer?  He's been compared to Garnett.
