Two Lottery Picks in 2014?

I know it's early, but with Brooklyn at 3-7 and struggling with injuries/chemistry issues, could Boston end up with 2 lottery picks? Is the 2014 pick received from Brooklyn protected in any way?

I have a feeling Brooklyn will turn things around and end up as a 5 or 6 seed, but their struggles could create an unbelievable opportunity for the Cs.

I think we'll end up just getting the one.  Of course I'm referring to the Brooklyn or Atlanta pick.  Our own will be just outside the lottery.

We get the lesser (worse) of the Hawks and Nets picks, due to the prior Joe Johnson trade between the Nets and Hawks.

Remember, there was a Celtic team a couple years back that started 15-17 & ended up in the Eastern Conference Finals.

We got a long way to go.

Whether it's pick 1 or pick 30, I think Ainge can find a great addition regardless.

The Nets pick wil be in the late teens. Perfect for Mario Hezonja.

It's very unlikely that Atlanta and Brooklyn both fail to make the playoffs.

Still, I'd expect Atlanta's pick to be in the teens.
