There is a definite case for Mayo. He is quick, strong, and has some of the best body control around. Though may I remind you; the previous O.J to attend USC is an ex-wife murdering hot-head with an insatiable lust for blood. May this O.J exercise sound anger management. Go Mayo!

I generally don't buy the conspiracy talk with the lottery (why would they have given Portland and Seattle picks one and two last year?) but you're right that it's pretty convenient for the Bulls to get the top pick the year Rose is in it.
