I would rather have the Sixers picks too.  The Nets are probably the second best picks to have.
minnesota before nets. the wolves are terrible, terrible franchise at the top. they will be bad for years to come.
Disagree.  Wiggins is legit and the top 3 wolves players have missed, more or less, the whole year.  Flip is doing a monumental tank job. 

With Rubio, Pekovic, Wiggins, Martin, and a top 3 pick, this team has WAY more promise than Brooklyn.  Not close.

i understand your point and you may be correct. but when i see the wolves i see how many years they had KG and love, and how many of those years were a bad, bad team.

ha, ha...i guess its a toss up. i am happy the celtics have the draft choices of EITHER team.  ;D

it may also just be a different sort of gamble. for the nets, the gamble is that their decline will be total and immediate, and their vets dont add a few years of being ok, or the owner cannot add a bandaid to keep them afloat.

for the wolves, the gamble is that wiggins still takes another few years to develop into a player who can lead the team, and, that the current group continues to be poor.

six of one, half dozen of another about a 4 year window.

EDIT/UPDATE: well, after reading this cb thread, let me retract many of my thoughts above.  :-[

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
