Feeling among Adams camp is best chance is with Portland, Philadelphia, OKC or Utah. That's 10, 11, 12, 14.
 
Andy Katz‏@ESPNAndyKatz2h
CJ McCollum very impressive. Told one of the three teams outside the top 10 trying to trade up for him (Utah, Phily, Port).
 
Andy Katz‏@ESPNAndyKatz2h
Interesting talk/interview with Alex Len. He said he thinks Cleveland trying to trade down to take him, OKC trying to trade up. (Atl too).
 
David Locke‏@Lockedonsports11h
On the BS Report @chadfordinsider projects an early run on Euros you can stash in Europe. This is how a surprise slides to the Jazz
 
lol...oh yeah?

Cleveland is still shopping around and trying to pull off a trade, according to source. One source said Cavs are trying to "do a mega deal."
 
Casey Holdahl‏@CHold26m
. @CJMcCollum says his workout in Portland wasn't one of his best, says he could have shot the ball better. #RipCityDraft

Casey Holdahl‏@CHold19m
Cody Zeller said he and @PaulGAllen had a 10 minute conversation about Microsoft Excel

OKC was trying to trade Perkins (one of the worst contracts in the NBA) to move up. Good luck with that.

I really hope that Magic take Len #2 if the Cavs move down.

Ben McLemore was seen on Twitter wearing a @Suns hat. His explanation: "It matched my shirt" Mystery solved

lol

I wish OKC was farther back than us. I would love to take Lamb off their hands and then move back and take Dieng. I think that would be a great draft.

Would you trade #10 to OKC for Lamb? Or do Pope and McC look better?

Zeller pick would probably piss me off more than anything else they do.

Yeah I am not totally liking him either, according to Pelton's analytical comps (WARP)...his comps are Aldridge, Horford among others....I don't see it....I see a slightly better Nick Collison offensively...

Yes, I really doubt OKC would do that though.....

I'd rather take Pope or McC than trade the #10 to OKC. Both of those player have better basketball IQ. Lamb is one of those guys who looks lost most of the time on the floor to me.

Thomas Robinson to Cavs for No. 19 pick. Thomas Robinson to Bulls for No. 20. Word is both of those scenarios are on table for Rockets

Sam Amico@SamAmicoFSO1 minute ago
Spurs, I'm told, still n running for Thomas Robinson as well. By this time Friday, he likely will no longer be a Rocket, man.

The more I read, the more I fear we will be quiet and take Zeller, then blow our wad on a center. Middle of the road, here we come
 
Josh Robbins@JoshuaBRobbins4 minutes ago
As I wrote today in the paper, I think the Magic still are considering trading the 2nd overall pick. Keep on eye on the T-Wolves.

Josh Robbins@JoshuaBRobbinsnow
Remember, though, that the Timberwolves are NOT considering offers for Kevin Love.

Orlando has been doing a great deal of work on players in late lottery-mid 1st round range, weighing possible deals out of No. 2 spot.

Casey Holdahl‏@CHold22m
Alex Len indicated that he scheduled his interview with the Trail Blazers prior to his stock rising to Top 5

Casey Holdahl‏@CHold21m
Len also said that his meeting was with Terry Stotts and scouts, not Neil Olshey and Paul Allen.
 
Casey Holdahl‏@CHold20m
Michael Carter-Williams says going to Portland would not be an ideal situation for him. With most guys demurring, I appreciate his honesty.

I would cream my jeans if we landed him
 
Per the radio..Jon Rothstein\CBS radio

Stars aligning for Alex Len to be #1 pick and go to CLE.....

Noel may slide to #4 to CHA....

I seriously doubt that.....

Also, CJ McCollum will not last past POR #10...and POR will not take Shabazz Muhammed....bummer

McLemore may slide to #7, damm...I would love to see POR trade up if he slid....

Ledo, one player taken later in the draft that will be looked back on as much better than where he was picked....

Top pick to be wary of (bust worthy), Kelly Olynyk.....

It's like Blaze is following every single twitter feed out there or something. 65 windows open on his computer screen.

Word is, Thomas Robinson was in Cleveland last night for the LL Cool J concert. Sources suspect perhaps for a physical, too.
