Want them to keep losing, but not too much losing! It's top 3 protected and as of tonight it is the #6 pick....... Here we go!

The NBA draft still has a lottery, right? It's not anything yet.
 
Karma finally out way. It's top 10 and outs guaranteed. We ain't gonna worry about them winning.

30% chance of them landing in top 3 now
 
What does this post mean?

Holy shit I was talking while I typed this! Lmao I sound high!

I meant the top 10 is ours! Karma is finally ours and no matter what happens we get a damn good pick.

Damn you and your Community College degree?......
 
With our luck, they'll get the third pick or they'll make the playoffs.
 
I was reading another message board, and all the nets fans seem to be really pissed about this trade. They hate the idea of giving up a lottery pick for Gerald Wallace. I would be too, knowing how Gerald seems to be at the end of his prime.

I'd trade a lotto pick for a prime GW though, no doubt...he was a good player.
 
Gerald was one of my favorite players before we acquired him. That changed this year with his inconsistent play and supposed disrespect toward Nate.

I missed it. What did he say? Is there a link? (I'll probably agree with it.)
 
I have no doubt that with them moving to Brooklyn that they will somehow land in the top three for this draft

given no lottery pick and their primary goal of convincing deron to stay, i think it's much more likely they'll make the playoffs than win a top 3 spot. they pretty much have huge motivation to try to win every game now.

also if lopez comes back in reasonable shape and with wallace they have what looks like one of the better starting lineups in the east, at least on paper. wouldn't surprise me if they turned things around.
 
Only have 22 games left, though, and they're 4.5 back now. The team in the #8 seed significantly improved from not having their starting C to getting a borderline all star back in Monta. It won't be easy for NJ to make the playoffs.
 
Based on their remaining schedule, it looks like they'll play about .500 ball from here on out. That would put them around the 8-10 spot.
 
Don't want them to lose too much though right?
 
No, but we don't want the teams ahead of them to lose either - to keep them ahead of New Jersey in both standings, and out of the 8th seed.
 
NYK,Mil, Toronto, and Sac won, and the Nets lost. That is perfect. The 2 teams basically tied for the 8th seed in the east need to keep winning to keep NJ out of the playoffs.
 
You know, it's ironic that a lot of blazer fans are dreaming about getting Brook Lopez and Deron Williams, and the Nets have had those guys for a couple years now and the team can't even crack .500 in the east. (and now we are rooting for them to lose)

Think about that you ninnies.....
 
Didn't DW just get traded last year, and Brook Lopez has been out most of this year. That doesn't sound like a couple of years together. I would love to get DW in Ptown, but chances are slim so I don't worry about that. What this thread is about is getting the #4 pick in this upcoming draft.
 
Jack with a huge shot puts the Hornets up one. Nets about to blow another one.
 
lol Kaman with a three at the buzzer. Nets are gonna lose this one.
