The Suns and the Nets in the Lottery

Kevin Durant's injury means that the Suns might lose a little bit more and give the Nets a slightly better draft pick. We've written off the idea of the Nets having a pick because of, oh, well they gave everything to Houston. No, it's a swap this year and the Rockets are so god awful that, the ping pong balls could backfire but the Nets should actually want to be in the lottery. The other thing is just on the court. You knew they'd struggle offensively without Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant duh even with McKeel Bridges all of a sudden turning into whoever he's becoming.
