Rumors From Pre-Draft: Johnson Close To Bulls Coach? Chicago Tribune - Two major rumors came out of the pre-draft camp on Wednesday involving the Bulls; the first being that Avery Johnson is nearing a deal to coach the Bulls, and the second, coming courtesy of Derrick Rose's collegiate teammate Joey Dorsey, is that Michael Beasley will be the first overall pick of the 2008 NBA Draft. According to K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune, John Paxson angrily shot down the claims by Dorsey, who says he has 'inside information. "It doesn't do me any good to respond to this stuff," the Bulls' GM said about Dorsey's claim. "I'm tired of it already. Nobody has any idea. Anyone who speculates can do that. That's fine. But nobody knows. We have one month, so let me do my work for a month, OK?" Meanwhile, the Bulls are hoping to have a coach in place ahead of the NBA Draft, with Paxson and Johnson keeping their back-and-forth extremely private. --
