What are the chances the bulls get Pat OBryant of Bradley and Tyrus Thomas of LSU?
–Dan, Normal, Ill. I’ve been thinking much of the season that if they got the chance they’d go with Thomas because of his great athletic ability and possibilities in today’s game to guard all three front court positions — a bigger version of Ben Wallace. Wouldn’t that be nice to have? We’re still a month away and anything is possible in this draft. Because you have five or six players I’ve had GMs tell me they’d pick No. 1, I think there’s going to be more misinformation spread this year than perhaps any other draft and the mock drafts are going to be a mess. There’s been a lot of talk these days about NBA parity making it like the NFL where more teams have a chance to win. I’m getting the feeling this is going to take on that militaristic, secret-code nature of the NFL draft. As for O’Bryant, everything I’m hearing now is he’ll be gone before the Bulls’ pick at No. 16, but he sure looks like a long-term project to me. Sam, I think you’ve got the Bulls’ second pick wrong.
