<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Bulls weren?t exactly shopping for need during Thursday?s predraft workouts at the Berto Center. Among the players participating were a pair of guards ? Texas A&M?s Acie Law (6-feet-3, 183 pounds) and Georgia Tech?s Javaris Crittenton (6-5, 198) ? along with Georgia Tech forward Thaddeus Young (6-8, 210). The Bulls figure to be in good shape at the three perimeter spots, but want to examine all the options in case they decide to trade one of their current players for a big man. ?I was saying that to myself, but they?re kind of short around the perimeter, so I guess they?re trying to get some bigger guys around the perimeter and build for the future,? said Young, who has not signed with an agent and could return to college. ?I think they want to add size to the backcourt,? said Crittenton. ?You never know what their thinking is.? The Bulls have the No. 9 pick in the June 28 NBA draft, while the three prospects who visited Thursday have been projected to go between 10 and 20. This year?s draft is low on point guards, so Law and Crittenton have a chance to raise their stock during these predraft workouts. Crittenton said he?s eager to match up against Ohio State?s Mike Conley Jr. (6-1, 180). ?I tried to set up workouts and tried to find him, but we don?t seem to run into each other,? Crittenton said of Conley. ?I?m just thankful that me and Acie Law had a chance to work out with each other. It was a very physical battle today, two big point guards. It was fun just competing.?</div> Daily Herald
i dont know but i think Paxson is really trying 2 get Collison. He may try and get him for cheap like Duhon, Khryapa, 2nd rounder, 2008 pick or something. Collison is really underrated. I then could see Paxson drafting a guy like Young. We are all hoping 2 get a big from the draft but will they play? We needed Thomas 2 play more but did he play? We needed a big guard like Sefolosha 2 guard guys like Kobe but did he guard him much? Not as much as Duhon did. With Skiles coaching a guy like Hawes or Yi wont get much minutes even tho they are post-players. I dont know about u but id rather have a guy like Collison instead of a guy like Hawes since he is a rookie. Collison is a guy that Paxson knows will give him what this team needs. Thomas will be better than Noah Paxson is not going 2 draft Noah. Pick up a guy like Randy Livingston PG-Hinrich/Livingston SG-Gordon/Sefolosha SF-Deng/Nocioni/Griffin PF-Thomas/Young/Brown C-Wallace/Collison To me, i could c Paxson drafting a 6'8 guy only if he is able to get a guy like Collison first. This is our last lottery pick for a looooooooooooooooooooooong time so i dont c Paxson wasting it.
