That guy who started this thread is basketball retarded.

of course you'd rather have Rose...Bease was going up against Noah, for cryin' out loud...of course he will look like a superstar. people who keep supporting Noah need to watch the games...

the first major argument I had on the board was in this thread with Favrefan. I hate Noah. He did not...

Nobody's perfect. I'm questioning my Tyrus Thomas prediction of him becoming a decent player but I'm willing to give it more time.

How long you got?

I gave 4 years to Curtis Painter!

Is he stoned or does he just not care? Either way this guy will make more headlines off the court then on it. Just a hunch. You can tell by the eyes sometimes. See: Cedric Benson

Wow. Very prophetic, rpb.

Beasely just checked in to a rehab for pot abuse and psychological issues and twitted that he didn't want to live any more.

Beasley will be a force from day one and Rose may catch up or pass him in a few years.

I rarely troll.

Beasley is a freak of nature. The guy can do it all and will only get better. I think he is a combination of Duncan and KG (more KG) but with better ball handling skills and range. He will be a high turnover guy for a few years (as most big men are) but I wouldn't worry about his low post game or getting overpowered. Most big men that come in the league are not physically mature (Howard being an exception) and none of them have great post moves. That will come with time. I see him being close to 15 and 10 next year and in 3 or 4 years being one of the best big men in the game. Top 10 player? It's possible. When you consider how many good big men are in the game and the type of mismatch he creates for all of them with his skill set I can't see how it isn't likely.

What a lot of people are forgetting is that Beasley was the consensus #1 pick throughout the year and did nothing to make anyone think differently. I think people tend to remember what is fresh. Most remember what Rose did in the tournament and that has elevated their opinion of Rose and diminished what Beasley consistently did throughout the season. They don't remember that Rose was up and down all season and had some terrible games. IMO Rose is a little more raw than Beasley. Beasley has the highest floor and Rose has a slightly higher ceiling.

:lol: It happens. Beasley still has a chance to put it together but needless to say I was completely wrong about Beasley vs Rose.

Well, everyone know what your worst prediction was.

Beasley seems to be reforming his career.

Rose is still the clear choice but things are looking up for Beasley.

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

From what I saw, the Bulls were running a glorified pickup game offense. Without structure, that's going to happen.

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

My assumption is that Rose will be the #1 player, although probably not the #1 scorer. Bulls sycophants have been telling me for years that Luol Deng will be at least a #2 for years. Beasley will quickly be better than Deng, if he isn't already.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

This wasn't really controversial at all at the time. Although it is fun to look back 3-4 years at thoughts. Sucks biggie erased Nas.

The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear.

Yeah, Rose is a much better scorer than I thought he would be. He's also a much worse defender than I predicted.

Deng has never been a legitimate #2. The team's failure to fill that role explains their demise in last season's playoffs.

Beasley is icky. Nas thought he was going to be an All-Star center!
