TEAM RUMOR

Nerlens Out week 5. Hot dog vendors dismayed.

Jamal Crawford is averaging 28 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 40% fg, 43% 3pt, but Wizards still struggle in week 4.

De'Aaron Fox seen clearing out his locker...

Houston views Lebron as the perfect match for Isaiah Thomas, and already eyeing other dominant point forwards just like Lebron within the league and in the draft.

Rumor has it that the Nets are so frustrated that they threw the game against Toronto in hopes of increasing the value of their Warriors pick.

*With Terence Ross injured, LeBron declares he'll play 2 positions at the same time next week. Team officials go to his house to reprimand him for diminishing his teammates value.....but get cold feet at the front door and decide to knock and run instead.

*Reports that Gordon Hayward is extremely committed to his rehab with the hope of surprise availability come playoff time. Friends and Family have been too scared to show him the current NLL standings for fear of mentally breaking him.

*Zubac's move to the starting team produces All Star level numbers. Rick Carlisle heralded as a basketball genius

*With a numbers crunch fast on it's way, a Bucks Insider has indicated that Westbrook will be available, then wont be, but then most likely will be by this offseason. Strong mail suggests he'll be made available in the right deal which will likely have to include a high lotto pick. Whoever could be in a position to swing that?

*With the Raptors languishing at the bottom of the league, thoughts naturally go to the draft. Last season they turned their solid lotto pick into Bradley Beal, reports are that they could very well go down the same road again.....but who will deliver them a star???

*Fultz partaking in physical therapy, next evaluation set for 1-2 weeks. Reports that the team has banned him from all console gaming......and any other strenuous shoulder actions for the foreseeable future.

Aminu, Noguiera to be in the rotation for next week - 'Al is a big part of what we want to do going forward, his role is secure; Bebe, has fantastic physical tools, we want to see what he can do', says management.

*Rumours circulating that Brooklyn has grown impatient waiting for the casualty ward. Set to bring in some fresh legs.

*Iggy's reputation as a team first guy is set to be put to the test after being traded to a team as deep at the wing spot as any other in the league.

*Celtics move reliable veteran Iguodala for a youth injection, embrace the change!

*Embiid heard saying he wants to be treated like Mike. Set to join him on the sidelines for a week of rest.

Was it EGOR or Kanter who sank the boat over the last 3 weeks? Nuggets seem to be ship shape without them.

*Reports that Alex Len's management is pushing the team for a contract extension to be finalised before week 6.

*Clippers players feeling the pinch as GM threatens to bring the hammer down any time they get an L. Insider claims it's emotionally destabilising the team.

Management already eyeing up Marvin Bagley III.
"We flat out stink, might as well tank for a guy like that" words heard from behind closed doors.

Sources close to the Kings say deal due to be finalized to bring in what they feel is the "missing piece"

A deal for De'Aaron Fox imminent?

Jazz on the verge of striking their first deal of the season and GM says phone lines are open for business...

Whiteside says knee is a serious issue. Houston doesn't want to tank, but the idea of Haslem getting minutes is cancer. Tank, or trade for another PF? Maybe there's a way we can avoid giving Haslem minutes without a trade.

*Insiders report that team morale is still strong with the entire squad spotted down at the North Third Restaurant eating dinner together. What better way to build team chemistry, getting them all together and enjoying some of the best chili in Philli

Griffin out 2 months... Argh... Until 2019 then

After the bad season start so far the Warriors are looking to change something ... come to GM mailo with your trade ideas !!

*Research data shows an increase in cigarette sales in Tennessee. Tobacco companies rejoice as their walking free advertisement campaign in rookie Frankie Nicotine / Frankie Smokes continues to impress on the court.

*Jealously an issue in OKC after players heard GM Nenjabin tell newly acquired Kyle Korver that he is a favorite. Rival Execs predict a Cuban / Parsons pre-breakup relationship between the two.

Rudy Gay, a contenders dream, may be on the block...screening offers

Matthews heading out West?

The battle for Florida heats up in line with the upcoming match, rumours of tainted drinking water and laced doughnut supplies circulate.

Three playoff teams have already contacted GM Darko about acquiring some of the Wizards veteran players, talks are still ongoing.

"No KD, No excuses" written on whiteboard in Bulls locker room

*Video footage emerges of Derrick Rose dancing naked on a yacht to the Macarena. Utah front office non responsive to calls.

Is greenmig a member of a crack team of genius men with the sole goal of assassinating Alex Len?

Sources inside the Jazz organization say Derrick Rose is away from the team because of personal matters and that his privacy will be preserved #nomolesallowed

Network pitches TV Show to find Minnesota's next GM

After a few bad offers for Fox, Pistons now have some serious offers and discussions going on

Hornets flirt with the idea of bringing Myles Turner off the bench purely to assist him in avoiding 1st Qtr foul trouble.
