UPDATE: The Cleveland Cavaliers won the Lottery...Again! Here are the results along with the SB Nation NBA Mock Draft . The 2014 NBA Draft Lottery is tonight in New York City, and our Brooklyn Nets are nowhere to be seen. That doesn't mean there isn't plenty of intrigue from Nets and NBA fans alike.

Andray Blatche is in a unique position this summer. He has said he'll opt out of his vets minimum contract with the Nets come June 29 and see what he can get on the open market. For 2014-15, he's guaranteed nearly $10 million even if he accepts only the vets minimum again because he's got one more year of amnesty payments from the Wizards . For Blatche, the issue is income security beyond 2014-15,...

Herb Turetzky has been the Nets only scorekeeper since they started playing as the New Jersey Americans in the ABA back in 1967, when he was a college student at LIU. The next time he sits down behind the scorers' table will be his 1,269th straight game. So he has some memories, of Dr. J, J-Kidd, Drazen and everyone in between. Jake Appleman, author of " " Brooklyn Bounce: The Highs and Lows of Nets...
Spencer Dinwiddie , a 6'6" guard out of Colorado is the latest draft prospect to say he's been interviewed by the Nets . Asked at last week's Pre-Draft Combine, what teams talked to him, Dinwiddie replied, "Golden State, Memphis, Washington, Brooklyn and Toronto."

Zach Lowe, in an article on front offices in "chaos," reports that if the Pelicans dump Dell Demps as GM, the Nets long time assistant GM, Bobby Marks, could be a serious candidate for the job. Two names to watch if the Pellies eventually part ways with Demps: Joe Dumars and Bobby Marks, the Nets’ assistant GM. Dumars is from Louisiana and tight with higher-ups from the New Orleans Saints, a relationship...
David Zavac, writer for Fear the Sword, had an interesting piece on Sunday that had several hypothetical trades. One that caught some traction, and could make sense down the road, is one that involves the Nets . Of course, this is all made up and not a rumor, just a conversation, but it's fun to put the GM hat on for a little. Zavac's trade is: Nets get: Anderson Varejao , No. 9 pick in the 2014...
