2011 NBA Mock Draft: Who Will the Chicago Bulls Select in the 2011 NBA Draft?

It's no secret that Derrick Rose could use another scorer on the team. The No. 2 guard is the weak area on the Chicago Bulls roster, which means the Bulls will be looking to upgrade that position in this draft.

With two first round picks so close to each other the Bulls could package a deal with a team if they really like a certain guy. I have a feeling Marshon Brooks is going to be that guy. He is a high flying scoring machine. All Brooks did at Providence was put up points.

Rose needs some of the pressure taken off of him, and Brooks will help him with that.

It's possible that Brooks could be drafted earlier because of his ability to score easily. Shooting guard is a need spot for a few teams this year, and because this draft is a bit weak in that area Brooks could be a higher pick that most expect.

Brooks is a special player. He has a knack for creating his own shot and making things look easy. Brooks is 6'5" 195 pounds. He averaged 24 points and seven rebounds last year.

His best skills are his ability to penetrate to the basket, and get the rebound if he misses a shot. Following your shot is the basics of basketball that so many players never do. Brooks could shoot a littler better from beyond the arc, but he won't be asked to do that too often in Chicago. They need him to drive create and score to relieve Rose of constant double teams.
