Everyday Sports with Pierre Escargot, the NBA Lottery, the NJ Nets and Lebronious

Enterlude: The BOMB is a Nets fan, thus "you" is the Nets.

Bomb: i mean it was far from a guarantee that they would land one of the top 2 picks, so i cant be too upset with #3

APT: so you're okay with the system
just upset with the result?

Bomb: yeah, im fine with the system
and this is exactly why i like the system
teams shouldnt automatically be rewarded for losing
like in the nfl

APT: fair
and i mean
brooke lopez and demarcus cousins inside?

Bomb: yeah, or derrick favors

APT: devin harris not having to worry about his job
oh true or favors

Bomb: yeah, i mean i really wanted them to get turner

APT: yeah
well maybe you have
harris, joe johnson, cousins/favors, lopez
and terrance williams
would be the first 5?

Bomb: yeah, i can live with that team
although defensively they could be a mess haha

APT: no doubt

Bomb: the new owner is going to be bringing people in, thats for sure

APT: that seems to be the case
my thing is
that there are only so many people to bring in
and now that you are pick 3
you should take an inside guy
so getting david lee or carlos boozer
isn't as tempting

Bomb: yeah, i wouldnt be thrilled with either of those signings anyway

APT: i wouldn't hate on boozer with wall and harris outside
because then defense can be a focus FA wise

Bomb: i wouldnt either, i just wouldnt be super excited, considering how much money they would have to give him

APT: that's true
maybe you'll get lebron
who knows

Bomb: well there no doubt they are going to make a serious play

APT: yeah

Bomb: i would be shocked if they got him though

APT: well i think it will be a big thing
if in the first few days the knicks sign bosh
because if they don't sign a second
lebron would really be risking it to go there

Bomb: yeah
whatever players the knicks sign to play there will basically be on their own

APT: yeah

Bomb: they have a couple decent guys to surround them, but not much

APT: i think if the knicks had the nets or the bulls roster then there wouldn't be as much discussion
but because the knicks suck
it levels the playing field

Bomb: yeah

APT: i think it would be lame if he went to chicago
even though that'd be a great team

Bomb: yeah him and rose? im sweating thinking about it

APT: yeah
i don't know what to think about him playing with wade
i don't know if it would work
or if they'd love it
and make it work

Bomb: yeah, i mean i could see it working at first, but a clash may be inevitable

APT: i would imagine
in big games
when whose ball it is needed to be decided

APT: maybe he'll pull a fast one on everyone and go to the clippers
granted i'd stay out of the west if i were him

Bomb: haha, that would be funny

APT: but baron davis is old enough now to give up the ball
and they'd have blake griffin with a chip on his shoulder
and chris kaman

Bomb: yeah, the clippers have some talent

APT: that might be the second best roster to add him to after chicago
and you have to imagine he'd want to take the headlines away from kobe
that'd be a great time to live out there
and like basketball
they would have to expand the staples center for LAC/LAL games

Bomb: yeah, seriously
