I'm not going through 160 some posts to see if someone's answered it, where do the 4 picks come from?

Nets 1st rd this year
Lakers 1st rd this year
Rockets 1st rd next year(lotto protected until 2016)
Warriors 1st rd next year(top 7 protected for 2012 & 2013, top 6 protected in 2014, if after all that and Nets still don't get the pick it becomes 2014 and 2016 2nd rd picks.)

Thanks. Looks like a bunch of mid-late 1st rounders most likely.

No way this is serious. Harris\Favors 4 1st rounders? That's insane. I would be happy with Favors + Net's 1st round pick this year plus whatever other picks we could slavage.

Probably harder to sell Melo on the extension without Harris there.

Melo's probably kicking himself in the nut's for signing in Denver for another year. This whole CBA thing\extension\lockout is the only thing that's giving Denver leverage and is probably the only reason he might land in NJ.

I cant wait for the deadline.. really tired of seeing the same rumor being posted 35 times.

For what? Not being raped?

Losing out to Lebron last summer then Melo now. The more NYK strike out the better.
