Crawford to Minny, Blake to Portland, Beasley to LA.
No idea what Sam Amico knows outside of Cleveland, but he tweets Beasley to LA deal is collapsing.

Portland is supposedly holding it up, but all I keep seeing is that it is still in the works.

WTF!??!?!?!?!??!

Rockets get Fish in exchange for Jordan Hill.

Are you fucking kidding me?

And they get the first round pick from Dallas that LA had.

Word around the league is that Bus can't afford to lose money.

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏ @WojYahooNBA As part of three-team deal, Nene goes to the Wizards, JaVale McGee to Denver and Nick Young to Clippers, sources tell Y! Sports.

I watch a lot of Wiz games (for teh lulz). This makes me sad, McGee is must see NBA.

Indeed. He wasn't the problem. NYK would be wise to hire him but they will instead miss out on Phil.

I wouldn't be mad if the Lakers give MB the ax and go get Nate.

The Lakers full Sessions deal. Not that bad of a deal for either team.


The Los Angeles Lakers have acquired point guard Ramon Sessions from the Cleveland Cavaliers as part of a multi-player deal that will bring the Cavs the Lakers’ 2012 first-round pick, according to league sources.
The Cavs also will send young wing player Christian Eyenga to the Lakers and veteran forward Luke Walton will be going to the Cavs. The Lakers’ will keep their draft pick this year if they miss the playoffs. As part of the deal, the Lakers also will have the right to swap first-round draft position in 2013 with the Miami Heat’s first round pick, which the Cavs own.
Sessions is averaging 10.5 points and 5.2 assists for the Cavs this season and fills a need for the Lakers, who have been in the market for a true point guard. Sessions is earning $4.2 million this season and is scheduled to earn $4.5 million next season, which is his option.
Walton, who has battled injuries over the last several years, has one year and $6.1 million left on his contract — he’s played in just nine games this year. Eyenga has played in just six games and has spent time in the D-League.

If they get Beasley this team will be way better off the bench. Making it work will be the key.
