When Ford says he's heard this idea floating around... what does he mean, exactly? Floating around his head? Suggested by fans in his chats? Kicked around during podcasts with Bill Simmons? Somehow I doubt he's heard it directly from an NBA executive.

You know you don't get more ping pong balls for each loss right?

Worst team in the league rarely even gets the top pick, they'd be stupid to trade Harris before the lottery. He and Lopez are the only solid talent they have.

The Nets have a really decent nucleus, they just need to hold out until next year. They might be able to lure a good free agent. ie Joe Johnson and they will get a top 2 pick for sure. Say hi to John Wall or Derrick Favors.

Classic beat writer manuver.

Got no story, but don't want to make **** up on your own...Call your buddy in next town over ask him what he thinks his team might want and presto you have a genuine idea from a media source...

Harris + Lopez should be your blocks




They're practically a lock to nab John Wall if they continue at this pace. That means they'll be set at the point and at center for years to come with Wall/Lopez.


How is 25% 'practically a lock'?
