Around SBN: The Animated GIFs Of January

It's not likely the Nets will win enough games to tie the Timberwolves and drop into a tie for first place in the Draft Lottery. That doesn't mean the Nets' other pick in first round--acquired from the Mavericks in the Jason Kidd trade--won't be a heads-or-tails situation. Teams that have identical records at season's end flip a coin on April 15 to settle draft order.

If the season ended today, the Nets would be involved in a coin flip...with the Thunder. The Mavs, whose pick is held by the Nets, and Suns, whose pick is held by the Thunder, have identical 50-26 records. So, a coin flip would decide who gets pick #26 and who gets #27. With five other teams within three games of the Mavs, it's theoretically possible the Nets could wind up in a tie for a pick as high as #22. Three of the Mavs' six remaining games are against playoff teams.

What happens if the Mavs, the Suns, and the other five teams within three games of the Mavs ALL finish tied for the same record?

Uh oh..

to hear that Wall may stay in college. When asked about the situation, Wall said it was more fun then he thought it would. if the Nets can’t get Wall or Turner this draft, that would really be a disapointment. Hopefully, the Nets can get a steal if Da’Sean Butler drops, but i doubt that.

Would make for a bad draft

because it might affect the other UK players’ plans: Cousins, Bledsoe, Patterson, Orton.

Why would Wall stay in college another year?

His career path is the NBA. He will be drafted at least top three, most likely #1. If there is an extended lock out in the future, he might have to wait longer then a year. I doubt he will stay in college another year. Plus god forbid he gets a serious injury.

But if he does stay in college there are still some great players in the draft.

Not like this type of speculation hasn't happened before

People were speculating Oden would stay in college too. It’s never happening

My head is spiniing from all the different going's on...

It seems everything is up in the air, including coins. Great fun with all the possible options and actions coming up. I just hope I’m able to cope mentally and physically with all the excitement and intrigue. They would have to pay me double to be Nets G.M.
