5 Rants

Last week we went through 6-10 of the Chicago Bulls top ten draft choices of all time. Today we finish of the list. We have compiled all the stats and awards and came up with these five players:

5. Orlando Woolridge / 1981 1st round, pick number 6

16.0 ppg / 4.3 trb / 1.9 ast – Productive career on 8 teams. Averaged 20+ ppg four seasons.

4. Elton Brand / 1999 1st round, pick number 1

20.3 ppg / 10.2 trb / 2.7 ast – Very productive career for two stuggling teams. Rookie of the Year 99-00. 2 All-Star game appearances. Should end up at 2 or 3 on this list towards end of career.

3. Reggie Theus / 1978 1st round, pick number 9

18.5 ppg / 3.3 trb / 6.3 ast – 2 All-Star game appearances. All rookie first team.

2. Artis Gilmore / 1971 7th round, pick number 117

17.1 ppg / 10.1 trb / 2.0 ast – 6 NBA All-Star Games (5 ABA All-Star Games). Played 5 seasons in the ABA after being drafted, before joining the Bulls. ABA Awards: Rookie of the Year, MVP.

1. Michael Jordan / 1981 1st round, pick number 3

30.1 ppg / 6.2 trb / 5.3 ast – I don’t believe this needs much explanation. But, 14 All-Star Games (3 MVPs), Rookie of the Year, Defensive player of the Year, 5 MVPs, 6 Finals MVP awards.

The Chicago Bulls are just two days away from the 2008 draft. As you all know they have the number one pick, lets hope this pick ends up on this list as well, whether Rose or Beasley.

And now its your turn. Do you agree with me? Did I miss someone? Let everyone else know what you think about my list, and what your list would look like here.

    Is it really possible for Brand to take over the number 1 spot on this list by the end of his career? Im sure you meant he could be 2 or 3.

    Hey ‘the other shammgod’,

    That is what I meant, 2 or 3. Thanks for catching that.

    Go Bulls!

    Where do you think Ron Artest would rank on an extended list?

    Ryan thats a good question. When I was making my original list, Ron Artest, along with Jamal Crawford, Clam Haskins, Dave Greenwood, and B.J. Armstrong all feel in my top 15. I did not have them in any specific order, but I would say Artest would be very close to being the top 10 because of his great defense. He could very easily make it into the top 10, if he can stay out of trouble.

    Where would you have him in your list?
