    I'm sure the New Jersey Nets were disappointed they didn't land the No. 1 pick and the chance to take Wall. But not all is lost.

    The team is also quite high on Georgia Tech big man Derrick Favors. Although the team has invested a lot of time developing Yi Jianlian, Favors could be a better long-term solution. Pair him up front with Brook Lopez and the Nets will have a great front line for the future. With Devin Harris and Courtney Lee anchoring the backcourt, they'll still make a move for LeBron James … but clearly it's not as persuasive now that they have no chance at Wall.

    Favors has monster measurements for a PF, it should be interesting how his tests go with his vert.
