NJ Net's strategy this year

[Jeff in MD]

Wizards will get the #1 pick.

If we can either rig the lottery or D. Stern fixes it for us.

They owe the Wizards the #1 pick after screwing it up last year. Blake Griffin should be on the DC sidlines in a suit as we speak.

 

That brings up the question, who's the best player in college basketball right now for the Wiz to draft in June? (should they get the 1st pick)

[Jason in the D]

John Wall.  By like, a mile.

[Jeremy in Richmond]

I say Cousins, after depleting their front court, they will need a good big. Besides Arenas will be back next year to run the point. 

[Steve in GR]

Wall
Cousins
Turner

They will go 1,2,3 in no particular order. More than likely Wall #1.

Hoping teh Pistons can land a top 3 pick. After those three it falls off quite a bit.

Half the reports I've heard are that there is no way Gunbert comes back and half say he'll be back because they won't be able to void his ass. In any case I hope we can get Wall or Cousins. Blache & Thornton look like a pretty good duo so we might be okay with big men.

Imagine if the Nets don't win the lottery and end up drafting 3rd or 4th.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Turner go #1 overall the way hes been playing. He looks like a young T-mac.

[Jason in the D]

I wouldn't be surprised to see Turner go #1 overall the way hes been playing. He looks like a young T-mac.

So he's gonna have a bloated contract, get traded a bunch and never get out of the first round of the playoffs?

Hes from tOSU. That wouldn't surprise me either.

Will Andrea Bargnani be available 

[Steve in GR]

Add Boston to teh short list of five or six teams that have lost to New Jersey.

Boston happens to be teh only one of those teams who are in the playoff race.

[Jeff in MD]

And the Nets did the Celtics in the Garden. Free throw attempts were 41-11 Nets.

I'm sure that having promotions like this will help attendence.....

War buying an upper level ticket and moving as far down as you want in every game.
