    I've just heard on ESPN Radio that theyve heard reports from the Oregonian that Deng could possibly be sent to Portland For Joel Pryzbilla and Jerryd bayless. I dont know how much fact has gone into this and the radio personalities are trying to find out more info on it, but I just wanted to report it.

    Thoughts?

    My sources tell me that the Blazers and Bulls have a deal in place that will send Luol Deng to PDX in exchange for the expiring contract of Joel Przybilla and young guard Jerryd Bayless. The two sides are waiting on the green light from Seattle before the deal can be made offical.

    We don't know how serviceable Przybilla is. Many think his knee injuries last year have finished his career. But that's just speculation at this point.

    He's an expiring contract, which is as good as a TPE.

    When determining team salaries (for example, to determine whether a team is over the salary cap), the following are included:

    The combined amount of any Mid-Level, Bi-Annual, Disabled Player (see question number 19) or Traded Player exceptions (see question number 71) available to the team (see question number 20), if the team is under the salary cap. (Teams may renounce these exceptions, in which case they no longer are included in team salary.)
