Owner Real Deal Posted June 16, 2012 Owner Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 #57 I realize the Nets are basically screwed in this upcoming draft, losing their pick to Portland...but instead of discussing what impact player they will get at #57 (lol), do you think the Nets will make an attempt to land a lottery pick, or a mid-first, hoping to satisfy D-Will? Could they deal Brook Lopez for a lotto pick, or do you think teams will shrug that idea off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Universe Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 Nets said they will buy a pick depending on whose still there. I don't think it's to lure Williams to stay because even the 6th pick would have little-to-know impact on his decision. With the 57th, I could see them drafting European and letting him stay there for a year or two. I'd love Kris Joseph. He's a Syracuse product and also Canadian which is great for marketing and a heck of a player too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guru Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) I have read that King is trying to pick up veteran pieces to convince DWill to stay. There is the possibility of us getting a first round pick but it won't be a lottery pick (probably somewhere in the 20s). Also, I don't see us dealing Lopez. A decent big man is hard to come by. Trust me, we just watched Sh. Williams and Petro play C for a year. You never know with BK though lol Edited June 18, 2012 by Guru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 There is quite a bit of talk that there are some teams looking to sell their picks. I can't remember which teams were specifically named (Memphis is the only one I can remember, Indy might've been mentioned as well) so if the Nets are looking to just buy a pick I imagine it would be in that range.

Universe Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Should be interesting to see what moves are made. The only thing for certain is the Nets are going to be taking someone from overseas even if it's not with the 57th pick. So much emphasis on European scouting, it would be a waste not to take the gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noted. Won't happen again.Constructive criticism on a message board topic about draft thread that you didn't add anything too except grammar? If it's an article I wrote I'd love the help but have the people on here stil type lik dis. Anyway it all depends on Deron which sucks. If he leaves then we have a very large hole to fix and would benefit even buying a pick in the first round to take the chance of a point guard.

Someone who is intriguing late in the draft is Tomas Satoransky. He's 6'7 and can play the point. If Teletovic can't be brought over, Leon Radosevic would be another solid pickup in the later rounds.
