As an example: lotto goes 1-5. All five lotto winners cannot win lotto for the next two lotteries. That means every year 10 teams have no incentive. The teams that remain have less competition to bottom out against, so they don’t need to tank so dramatically.

@brooklynsbeat I mean I’m with you on being frustrated with him because we won, but can’t hold it against him. He’s playing for his next contract. But for tank standings it does hurt our pick floor if we lose lottery. Doesn’t change our odds of top pick at least.

I don’t like Jalen Wilson right now. #Nets He must might’ve screwed us out of top pick!

As much as I wanted nets to get the L yesterday, it doesn’t change their expected pick spot which is 5/6

The Financial Times is reporting something that should be front-page news everywhere.       Pete Hegseth didn’t just help design the Iran war. He championed it publicly, cheered it on, and sold it to the American people. And according to the Financial Times, while his own department was in the final stages of preparing to launch it, his broker at Morgan Stanley was attempting to make a multimillion-dollar investment in the defense companies that build the weapons we used to fight it.       The investment didn’t ultimately go through, but only because the fund wasn’t yet available on Morgan Stanley’s platform. Not because anyone stopped it.      If these reports are accurate, the Secretary of Defense was positioned to profit from a war he helped start, using information no private investor could ever have. That is a profound betrayal of every service member he commands, and of every American who trusted this Administration with their national security.      No one should be cashing in on privileged information while lives and national security are on the line.

@bklynnetslover For some fans, doesn’t matter. Every year people’s lives are in different places. An opportunity to go to a game can be rare

Who is willingly taking their family to a Nets Wizards game in April and hoping to see Claxton and Terrance Mann play?

Yeah, I’m not sure if the Nets can lose this game. The Wizards’ available players are very bad and playing with horrendous effort. There’s already been at least four defensive possessions where Washington has let Brooklyn walk to the rim.

@Netswamp Please relax and take breath

The irony of Will Riley outperforming all five of our first round picks as the Nets beat the Wizards and help them secure a top 5 draft pick is not lost on me. Rock bottom.

@vStoiQ The horrid hate is a good way seperate fans from cry babies who don’t know worst there talking about. Like genuinely don’t get it or see it. He’s not nor has never been the problem

This ladies and gentlemen, is an example of idiotic thinking.

@Sexhaver999 @luvlancey @LegionHoops Yea I agree 100% here. Major red flags to be saying this at this juncture. No faulting on his religious beliefs. But it dies been the question, where are his focus and energy going, and is this going to turn into something awkward

@LegionHoops I respect all religions but im not drafting a guy who says basketball isn’t his purpose. Especially when he can’t shoot

Arizona forward Koa Peat: “I don’t think basketball is my purpose. I think being able to have this platform to share The Gospel is really my purpose” (@JonnyRoot_)

@Unduhcover @JfromBk You know the lottery winners will get AJ, so record won’t dictate that, outside lottery odds which, ours did not change…

@JfromBk NO WE DO NOT AND THEY FINNA LET THEM GET MORE TALENT BECAUSE JORDI FERNANDEZ WANTS TO COSPLAY SAMUEL L JACKSON IN COACH CARTER I WATCHED DYBANTSA WINDMILL DUNK WITHOUT BREAKING A SWEAT WILSON A 6’7 WING THAT CANT JUMP

#NetsWorld Do the Wizards have 2 rookies (Tre Johnson & Will Riley) better than all 5 of our first round picks? #ForTheDistrict

Nets get the W against lizards who are redefining shameless tanking. Same team that wouldn’t play any bigs on Bam to ensure a loss and gave a player who isn’t a scorer, the all time living scoring record.

@erikslater_ @BK_Way_Leah I couldn’t even be mad at the nets. Like at what point do we draw the line because the next thing is signing guys you have no interest in just to lose. Or literally telling the ref you’d like to forfeit

The Wizards have played only six players in this first half. They’re tanking so hard that Sharife Cooper and Jaden Hardy (their other two available players) can’t even get in the game. Really egregious stuff.

@JfromBk @joetsai1999 Yes… lol we are still in the shadow of his trades. Firing Sean doesn’t automatically make things better. It just puts someone new in place that will be under pressure to make splashy, risky moves without experience. And we don’t need someone like Joe dumars.

@basicnetsfan @joetsai1999 You’re still using Billy King in 2026?

He’s talking about firing your GM for the greater good of Brooklyn @joetsai1999 #NetsWorld 🥍

Giannis went from my dream player to reminding be of Kyries antics. They are not on the same level but I really feel for bucks fans. It sucks for the fans when your star’s ego starts becoming the main subject in headlines

@GiannisTake Na both these have to do with keeping the player healthy. Bucks don’t control that pick and can’t move much at this point. Giannis is going public with trade tap so bucks can’t risk injuries. Embiid needs to be healthy and fresh for playoffs

It’s interesting that Giannis and Embiid are facing the same predicament. Goes to show you just how severe the tanking epidemic in the NBA is.

@IKE_Bucks Problem is Giannis himself is acting like he doesn’t want to be with bucks anymore. It’s not other people. He is the one making comments in the media regularly

🚨 KEITH SMITH IS NOT A BUCKS OR GIANNIS FAN And either are these NBA HACKS We traveled to Sepolia, Athens, Greece, to the infamous Giannis’ court. Keith can’t make it to the gym. Keep Giannis in Milwaukee. This is the best for HIM too. These shills are trying to spoil the legacy of the greatest Buck of ALL-TIME Giannis is HIM and has always been HIM His legacy outshines that of KD and Kareem THESE HACKS ARE 🚮 Do NOT listen to these fools #KeepGiannisinMKE #Bucksin6

Giannis is really flipping the narrative that he’s this ultra competitor to he’s just a selfish immature child who’s been given too much reign. Dudes really hurting his brand the way he’s acting with media the past few weeks. Not that it will matter. Just annoying to see it

@JfromBk @joetsai1999 Well firing him doesn’t fix the issues. Just forces us to start everything all over again. Sean didn’t inherit a good situation. Literally the worst in the league. Billy king showed us what bad decision making does. I’d rather have marks than risk another Billy king

@basicnetsfan @joetsai1999 Proven himself how? His record says that he’s a loser.

@ThunderMKE Yep

I literally can't believe Giannis is this clueless. I thought he was a class act. It's appearing more and more that he's just like the rest. He's trying to play the victim and make the team the villain...

@PodThorn He’s got potential but for a very late first rounder I think he’ll be decent, not great

Danny made me look bad. I was a big Danny Wolf promoter. I whiffed on this one.

@Brandon_Sneide He’s only making himself more of a diva/bad guy at this point. Dude gotta grow up and have an adult conversation

This reeks of Giannis driving leverage to leave without looking like the bad guy.
