Double and tripling down on stupidity is what horrible franchises do, if the Nets are forced to move on here they should just take the bath and start rebuilding. Chasing 14th so you don't give up high lottery picks is how you stay in perpetual mediocrity. It sucks they are going to end up giving up a few lottery picks, but if they chase 14th to avoid that they could end up being the Knicks in the long run, and ain't no one want to be the Knicks. Bottom out, take your medicine, move on.
They'll tank for a year maybe.. but they have an uber rich owner and will get a bazillion picks and be back chasing free agents after a year.
