After a snapshot of Ryan Anderson eating at a restaurant in downtown Phoenix surfaced, some are wondering if the Ryno is the first piece in the Suns trying to re-assemble the type of "three-point barrage" squad that led them to their recent title.

Reports of Hornets GM Nick Malone wandering through the French Quarter throwing overstuffed bags of money at anyone over six feet tall have been confirmed. Then again, this has been an annual rite of summer and the RFA season for years now, so everyone in New Orleans has learned to ignore it. One resident said, "hey, Nick gonna Nick."

Public outbursts from Sacramento Kings GM Nola don't seem to have deterred other teams from coming hard after O.J. Mayo and D.J. Augustine. A former GM who consults with some of the players mentioned to me that O.J. is "drowning in offers. Drowning!"

Kevin Love's camp tells me they have been underwhelmed by the number of offers so far. "It's like people think it's a foregone conclusion he's not moving," said a close confidante. Apparently Love is sulking because several other top big men have gotten more offers than he has.

People in Luc Richard Mbah a Moute's inner circle are telling me the offers he's getting have been all over the map. It's as if nobody is quite sure how to value the defensive stopper.

Breaking: Derrick Rose just received an offer from notoriously cheap GM WigNosy and raced out of the room claiming a family emergency. His personal trainer felt it was a medical emergency not a family emergency - busted spleen from laughing too hard.

Drowning in offers or just 1 offer?

We all know the Bucks do their only work during the draft, but they were looking to change things over this draft as they looked to jump into contention. I'm heard they kicked the tires on Amare Stoudamire and Chris Bosh, with them coming the closest to Bosh. Word is, the Bucks could have had him if only they weren't looking to win the deal. Intead the division rival Raptors will stomp the Bucks for years to come.

I'm told that the Jazz are willing to stand pat with their current roster. A few packages offered to them to jump into contention right away, but in normal Jazz fashion, they decided to stand pat and waste vital years of their gifted superstars career.

The notoriously aggressive Nuggets GM is back at it again. I'm told he's looking to upgrade both his 3 and 4 spot and may have struck on a move that will move him up top the West..

The Wolves after the failed Chris Bosh Experiement are trying to add diversity to their team. GM JNR said he thought their was a "clique" culture which prvented the team from growing. Now he's alligned players from around the country and world to make sure everyone is outside of their comfort zone.

The Hawks are feverishly trying to unload Jeff Adrien. Teams are iffy about him due to his age and how much room he still has to grow.

Sonics Owner Micheal Stevenson has not been happy with his GM's lack of progress. Sources think his chances to be fired are extremely likely.

Hornets trying to lure multiple teams into trades / sign and trades for Chris Copeland and cash. No one's biting, and i'm hearing one team laughed him off the trade table. Problem with Copeland? 29 and still hasnt hit his potential. Hornets seem to be back to their old ways of bad trade offers.

HONEST TALK ON TRADE BLOCKS:

Lakers want three young pieces (players or picks) for Bogut. He's 29 years old, so he's only going to get hit in TC. He's making the max but his deal expires this year so you're going to have to overpay him even more to keep him around. His actual value is probably one young player or a pick plus the Lakers have to eat someone else's bad contract.

HONEST TALK ON TRADE BLOCKS:

Jazz are shopping "anyone but George and Rubio." CJ Miles would have been a stud but the TC gods smote him. They also smote Valancuinas. The Jazz would have been in a much better position to deal if they had spent on TC insurance.
