Rumors have started circulating about possible landing spots for Marcus Banks. He will be cheap, as in free, as soon as the Minnesota signs Lowry's max deal.

When approached about this quote, The JNR had this to say: "Are the rumormongers even paying attention? We just acquired Banks because we see him as our backup shooting guard. We couldn't trade him if we wanted to, which we don't. Try harder, sources."

The Hawks' notorious penny pinching ways are sure to come back to bite Wig in the butt. My cousin told me that when Rudy Gay opened his contract offer from the Hawks his response was AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHANO.

I'm told the Warriors and Trailblazers are all looking to pick up a cheap veteran to put them over the top in the race for the Pacific but their lack of available first-round picks is making that process tough.

The Clippers, on the other hand, appear to have the inside track on bringing in a difference-making vet with the possibility of moving both their 2011 and 2013 picks.

Highly reliable sources indicate that the Rockets are looking at moving Ike Diogu right before the deadline. Diogu has a player option after the season and the Rockets feel he will decline the option which is one reason why Eddie Griffin was signed thru next season. If the deal is right, look for Diogu to end up with a contender right before the deadline.

If the deal is right.

Sooo probably not then
