Hoping for a 1st in this draft, but I doubt that is the case.

He makes more money with a new deal after next season.

for the Nets #1 pick in this draft, top 3 protected. I can't figure this one out, unless they have something else brewing.

Pacers get Barbosa and Anthony Carter for a 2nd round pick from the Raptors.

That could be a nice pick up for Indiana.

Sessions is ok. Eyenga won't see the floor.

Chris Mannix says the Lakers "absolutely stole" Sessions from the Cavs. Not sure if Mannix has seen Sessions play, but even if the Lakers literally stole Sessions off the Cavaliers bench I don't think I would be that upset.

Don't see how they "absolutely stole" him. Cavs got a pick out of it, in which they could possibly package to get a higher pick. Also, Sessions was going to leave the Cavs anyway.

Huh?? Cavs now have 2 straight years with 2 1's. We got a first round pick for sessions!!! A bench player.

I couldn't figure it out either when I read his tweet. Thought the Cavs getting anything in return for a guy that probably would have opted out after this year was a great deal for them.

The Minnesota, Portland and Lakers deal is going to go through most likely.

Crawford to Minny, Blake to Portland, Beasley to LA.

Houston gets Camby. Portland gets Flynn, Thabeet and a future 2nd round pick.
