Which doesn't make sense either. They already supposedly traded that pick.

Exactly, which is why none of this makes sense.

Check that: The deal for Norris Coles to Miami is with Minnesota, not Chicago.

Yeah, I've heard that before on this board.

Jimmy Butler is a Bull? Looks like a new "33" in the house....

Laurence Holmes seems to love this pick because of what Jimmy Butler did to Depaul. Everyone looks good against Depaul.

I think it was a mistake to not take a chance on Josh Selby.

Can he play the 2

KC Johnson tweeted that the funny thing about this whole deal is that the Bulls also liked Norris Cole, who is now on the Heat.

Here was his draft profile from NBA.com:

Strengths:

* Can score in variety of ways
* Gets to the free-throw line often
* Good facilitator
* Strong work ethic
* Takes pride in defense
* Good rebounder for his size

Weaknesses:

* Shooting has been inconsistent

Sounds like what the Bulls were looking for.

So the Bulls trade up to get a foreign player with great upside that won't be ready for a few years and their pick goes to Miami who choose a guy the Bulls liked and now the Bulls close out the 1st round by picking a forward who doesn't sound real impressive. And the Bulls are still looking for a scorer to help out next year. Interesting.

Dont know a lot about Jimmy Butler but what I've read has been so/so.

@DraftExpress: Chicago drafted the 7th best player in the draft with #23. When will he come over? My guess – 2014

LoHo just said Butler saved the Bulls draft. Hmmmmmm

So what does Minnesota do with all these damn draft picks?

The GM is going to eat them like media room hot dogs.

who will be the better nikola...

I am surprised that no one took a chance on drafting him and instead just picked names out of Eastern European and African phone books and hoped for the best. McCamey's biggest issue is his head. Give him a chance and if he fails then release him for almost nothing.

Because Omer Asik is the bee's knees.

I'm gonna guess that Richmond will be in jail before the start of the next NBA season.

McCamey yes. Richmond will be lucky to get an invite and won't make an NBA roster. It's either the D League or Europe for him.

My guess is that McCamey and David Lighty are getting a lot of calls. They are in good positions. The Bulls would be smart to try and get one of them in camp.

If the Bulls cut John Lucas III, i'm boycotting this season.

Here is something for a good laugh for you guys. On another board I just read a guy who said that Purdue's Johnson and Moore are going to be perfect replacements for Garnett and Allen in Boston.

Hopefully they draft Hummel next year and they can compete with Miami for best Big 3 in the league.

Nice.

Add Ben Hansborough to that list too.

100% agree.

Sure it does. In a draft this bad, the LAST thing the Bulls needed was to come away with two guaranteed contracts. They did the best thing they could possibly do, drafted a guy with great talent who they can stash in Europe for a few years and not have to pay. The analyst claimed that this guy has top 5 talent, but went this low because of his contract. Getting top 5 talent at 23 sure sounds like a great move for a team that wasn't goint to find any immediate help in the 20s anyway.
