Sources: Cavaliers restricted free agent Iman Shumpert will start taking meetings with teams. So far, unable to reach deal with Cleveland.

The @aldridge_12 camp pushing back hard against LAT story that he's already eliminated the Lakers from consideration: "completely false."

i.e. "Everyone shut up we still need to use them for leverage!"

Sources: If the Clippers can keep DeAndre Jordan, team officials with growing confidence they'll lure Paul Pierce to $3.4M exception.

Kind of encouraging, but seems like a pretty big "if" at this point.

I love when people post the same tweet within seconds of each other.

Lakers whiffed by banking so hard on LMA coming and passing up on Jah imo. Russell's gonna be good but where's that big man gonna come from now?

Robin Lopez will be a Laker.

So from Boogie to LMA to Monroe to Lopez now? 

At this rate they should be thrilled if Brandan Wright would accept 5 years 80 mil from them

Deandre would be a fool to leave the Clippers. No other PG is gonna get him points like CP3 did.

Not to downplay cp3 overall but it's not that hard to throw a lob 20 feet in the air . It's like how you could put randy moss with any qb and he would go get it

He also gets a lot of points from Blake as well, who is a great passing big.

But on the first point, who is the Mavs' PG now anyway? Devin Harris?

From what I've heard the Sixers think they have two franchise cornerstones in Okafor and Embiid....Noel will probably eventually be the guy they trade. Embiid's foot isn't as bad as the media portrayed it to be. I think Embiid and Okafor fit better next to eachother anyway, as Embiid can actually shoot it from outside to give them better spacing.

Jerian Grant is an excellent PnR PG

would work well with an athletic big man

I agree. Somewhat encouraging. WOUld love to get pierce for the $3.4 exception. Assures no chance Lance will ever see too many minutes

Blake and DAJ occupy the same space.... 

DAJ tired of being cock-blocked for points in the paint

he comes to Dallas and the paint is all his

and before we traded Wright, we was looking like lob-city jr.

Also hearing that second-years on Johnson and Jerebko are not guaranteed as @SteveBHoop lays out here http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/...tics_reel_in_amir_johnson_on_first_day_of_nba …

Wizards free agent G Will Bynum is leaning toward playing in China next season for more $, a source said.He played for Guongdong last season

Knicks are definitely in play for Robin Lopez. Lakers and Mavs will also make a push depending on where DeAndre Jordan lands.

HoopsHype @hoopshype
Most visited players rumors on HoopsHype right now: LaMarcus Aldridge, Greg Monroe and Tobias Harris.

Bobby Marks @BobbyMarks42
Chicago is hovering right around $86m in payroll after the Butler/Dunleavy signings. Will be interesting if they can shed some salary.

Adam Zagoria @AdamZagoria
Aaron Harrison is officially on the Charlotte Hornets summer league roster

Randy Moss would eat with any of those dudes.
