Michael Beasley… Where is he going to be drafted?
Tomorrow is the big day for the new prospects that will be playing next season at the NBA since the 2008 draft will be held at New York and there is a little of uncertainty surrounding the top 2 picks.
Michael Beasley is to be chosen as number one, and the Bulls who has the first choice are likely to pick him, but Beasley has done some workouts with Chicago and the Miami Heat who has the second overall pick of the draft.
So if the Bulls opt for their native fellow second pick Derrick Rose, the Heat will set their eyes on the former Kansas State player, though, I think Miami will consider a lower pick in the draft in order to have the chance of ridding off the contracts of Marcus Banks and Mark Blount.
People compares Beasley with Derrick Coleman, the overall number one pick of the 1990 draft, and the Nets expected him to become the best power forward ever, but things didn’t worked out that way and Coleman looked like he never gave as much as he projected, just as Beasley.
But it’s just too early to come with conclusions about the most promising figure of this year’s draft, when the time comes, we will see if the Beasley/Coleman comparison has some credit or if it’s just pure jive talking.
