After watching the NCAA tourney, I think, just say we luck oput and get #1, we should grab Rose. He has been wicked. Beasley is sgood eaither way #1 would be great.
We may be improving but we will still struggle for a few more years. There are still those 9 50-win caliber teams, plus Portland will be getting Oden back.
We may improve next year, but probably not much. I will be praying for Derrick Rose as well.
I don't think Rose is the answer and would suggest we play one more year in college to bring his game up a level. Chances look like the T-Wolves will get the third pick and it depends which players declare.
Playoffs next year is going to be pretty tough but i could see it in 2-3 years. We have a good young core in Jefferson, McCants, Foye, Brewer, Gomes, and Smith. Bringing Telfair back to be our backup would be nice but with the season he had he might attract better offers than what we'll give him. In my opinion I would like to see Foye slide to the 2 guard so he can do a little more shooting and then bring in a solid, veteran point guard. McCants coming off the bench is great because he can score in bunches. I also like Brewer's improving all around game.. if he can get around 8-10 ppg and 4-6 rpg along with lockdown defense, he'll fit in nicely. Smith is a great big off the bench and Gomes can either start or come off the bench also. Our 2 biggest pick ups this offseason should be a scrappy center to compliment Big Al and a veteran point to distribute.
