1. Bulls — Derrick Rose. Chicago picks the hometown boy, trades Kirk Heinrich to the German League.
2. Heat – Michael Beasley. Honestly, I’ve never seen the guy play, since I can only watch so much college basketball per season, and his Big 12 games usually conflicted with something better, like sleep.
3. Wolves – OJ Mayo. His marketing power should explode in basketball-addicted Minnesota.
4. Sonics – French Open champion Brook Lopez.
5. Grizzlies – Jerryd Bayless. Skip’s son ignored his father’s pleas to attend Vanderbilt, the “First Take” co-star’s alma mater. That’s good, because Vanderbilt doesn’t take kindly to student-athletes who go on to great NBA careers.
6. Knicks – Roy Hibbert. The Knicks have always liked big Hoyas (Patrick Ewing, Mike Sweetney) and honestly, this would be the only pick that would make me root for them again.
