    The proposed 2012 draft pick the Nets would send to Blazers in Wallace deal would be protected only through the top 3 spots, sources tell Y!

    Top 3 protected would be real nice.

    Holy shit. That's an outstanding pick ... even this management team couldn't fuck that up in this draft.

    IF these are completed they've been semi-active.

    If @WojYahooNBA is correct and it's a top-3 protected pick, that's huge and should have #Blazers fans cheering for Nets in every game.

    Yeah that's awesome news. Let's hope the Nets don't make the playoffs, but have one of the worst chances to win the lotto.

    Just hope NJ doesn't win the lottery and get one of the top 3 picks... it'd be just our luck if they did.

    Great deal for Portland. Only top 3 protection. Can't ask for much better

    If so it just rolls over to the next year ... that could work out OK too given the fact that we don't have a pick next year.

    If this report is correct, then the pick is NJ's own pick, not Houston's. Shows how desperate Nets are after Howard debacle.

    The difference between lottery protected and top 3 protected is huge.
