    There's no traction with Detroit or Washington on a Luol Deng deal, sources say. Cavs continuing to explore options.

    Wow! We couldn't trump that CLE offer for Hawes?

    Phoenix, too, has resisted Cleveland's efforts to secure a first-round pick for Deng, who will be unrestricted after the season.

    Have you looked at Ariza's stats this year? He's playing really good. Not sure they need to rent Deng for the rest of the season.

    Otto Porter and Anthony Bennett on the same team would be entertaining.

    The tank is strong in Cleveland.

    Sacramento has agreed to acquire Roger Mason Jr. from the Heat, but is expected to waive him, league source says. #howu

    Our lack of picks and liquid assets is reminiscent of the Knicks. Not a good place to be when we're only one or two moves away from serious contention. This might delay our window a bit.

    Sure they don't need to but it wouldn't hurt. Deng is better than Ariza and then Ariza is better than the bench guy so it makes the whole tema better

    I'm eagerly awaiting BGD's post-deadline meltdown.

    No we couldn't send an expiring plus 2 2nd rounders from a bad team.

    In the case of the Knicks, not only was the cupboard bare, but they were always over the salary cap to boot. At least we aren't facing that.

    The Pacers have tested the trade market for Danny Granger over the last 24 hours but haven't found a deal they like, sources said

    I'm just expecting something like a Barton or Crabbe for someone's bench warming big man, like a Cole Aldrich.

    As of last night, I'm told, Rockets were strongly leaning toward keeping Omer Asik rest of season before trying to trade him again. But ...

    Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine
    But I must note that Rockets' GM Daryl Morey always makes a deadline trade and we still have three hours left until trade season is over

    CHA sales pitch to MIL is that trading LRidnour today is easier if they reacquire Sessions. But Sessions more costly than Neal THIS season

    Wizards, Wolves lead the chase for Andre Miller, per league source.

    Other teams say Pistons indeed shopping Josh Smith, but demanding more than just dead expirings.
