Fair enough. I think Paxson's keeping and using the pick. If the Raptors choose Bargnani like most prognosticators believe, all signs point to the Bulls picking either Thomas or Aldridge. But it could all be a mirage as you suggest. I hope its Aldridge, if it shakes down as you are predicting. As long as we're quoting Chad's opinions: Ugh. I know you draft the best player available, and not for need, but c'mon... Thomas doesn't help this team immediately, or maybe at all, Aldridge helps immediately.
