Game 1: Monday, July 7 vs Miami (Rose vs Beasley)
Game 2: Tuesday, July 8 vs Indiana Game 3: Wednesday, July 9 vs Orlando Game 4: Thursday, July 10 vs New Jersey (should be a good PG match-up with Rose/Williams) Game 5: Friday, July 11 vs Seattle (Rose vs Wetbrook) http://www.nba.com/magic/news/Magic_to_Hos...-274224-66.html Paxson said in today's press conference that we should expect to see Rose, Nichols, Thomas, Gray, and Noah. I'd assume Thabo might be there as well. NOTE: ALL GAMES WILL BE VIDEOCASTED LIVE ON ORLANDOMAGIC.COM |

QUOTE Derrick Rose is a point guard. Did you really think he'd work well with a bunch of scrubs he's never played with before? You all were on board with Rose, even though PGs are going to take longer to develop than a 6'7" SF with range (and that's where Beasley should be playing in the NBA) I dont know who you're speaking to but Ive consistently stated that Rose was not the player I wanted. Ive had to listen to people for weeks now tell me how wrong I was, how Beasley was no good, how Rose was a superstar and was going to create a new Bulls dynasty. /shrugs I hope that I am wrong, its just one of those decisions that I always have disagreed with. |

Quiet you, back to Soxtalk. I think he's just saying that 99% of this board was grossly in favor or Rose leading up to the draft and now seemingly after the first sign of a hiccup people are flipping out. Personally, my position has always been that they're both going to end up being very good players, probably a slight Beasley lean given that he's more of a finished product at the moment, but I wasn't exactly going to flip out if we took a very talented PG in Rose. I guess people forgot that Beasley can play with all of the "character concerns" and him coming in a bit shorter than advertised (6'8 1/4" in shoes instead of 6'9", whoopie). |
