    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.

    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.

    Michael Carter-Williams says going to Portland would not be an ideal situation for him. With most guys demurring, I appreciate his honesty.

    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.

    (Or just the mass twitter feed available via Hoopshype.)

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

    PHX brought Michael Carter-Williams back Mon. for 2nd workout -- a year after they drafted Kendall Marshall and signed Goran Dragic. New GM.

    A draft expert/insider for CBS is on the Jim Rome Show right now (guest host Grant Naper). He said he's heard it from a good source that CJ McCollum won't drop past Portland at #10. If he's there, he is going to be the Blazers pick, at 10. He also said that the Blazers will NOT pick Shabazz if he's there at #10.

    You think it is possible, with rumors CLE is trying to make a mega deal, that they are trying to get Dallas 13th pick for us? Or T-Rob for us/them to replace Tristan? 1,13, Tristan/T-Rob for LMA?

    My question is why in the fuck would we even pick a player for ourselves at 10?

    Clips, Blazers talked on DeAndre Jordan prior to Doc Rivers' hiring, sources say, but Portland interest and Jordan market value unclear now.

    If we trade for Jordan, we are keeping LA and making a serious playoff run.

    Ben McLemore says he isn't getting out of the top-5. Anthony Bennett says he's definitely going in the top-6. Lots of good stuff coming.

    one of those 2 may be dissapointed, question is which one?
