Seems like the pick is lottery protected:

Well Ivan responds later by saying...

It could be top-3 protected only but I can't say for sure yet. I'll find out what I can.

In the Memphis board there is better information about the protection:

I have been told that this is how the Navarro deal shakes out...

Memphis recieves J.C. Navarro

Washington will recieve a first round pick from the Grizzlies (contrary to what has been reported, I am told that this is how it will break down)
I will try to make this as simple as I can, but it is a little tricky

'08 if the Grizzlies select 20 or further down, it goes to the Wizards (top 19 protected)
'09 if the Grizzlies select 17 or futher down, it goes to the Wizards (top 16 protected)
'10- '12 the Grizzlies pick is lottery protected
'13 - the pick is top 12 protected and if it has not been given, cash considerations will be given to the Wizards.

I love the way this shakes out for the Grizzlies and it is much more comforting than the reports that it is simply a lottery protected pick that they are giving up, etc.

I don't think Navarro ever intended to play for us or anyone but Memphis. Otherwise I doubt Ernie would have agreed to this.

wow... this whole thing just stinks of something that is going to come back and bite us in the ***.

we should just take the unconditional 2nd round pick or something...Because we probably won't the see the pick for a while if that structure is ture...

Not sure if I like that all. Doesn't seem like it was worth trading JCN. Let's hope he doesn't flourish and make it look like we are cursed again for trading away great players for bad players/picks.
