    Cavs going after maggette as fall back option. This is according to Espn. Also 4-5 teams talking to pacers about murphy. Are we one of them? They do not mention us at all.

    GM's and agents expect flurry of activity Tuesday. Everyone was holding deck close today, including PHX and Cavs. Best offers are on way.

    Also Quick thinks outlaw will never see a blazer uni again.

    Sources say Amar'e doesn't want to go to Cleveland, also.

    I think he'll end up in Philly or Miami, TBH. Philly would be foolish not to throw Iggy out on the table.

    Amar'e would be foolish not to want to play with Lebron, unless he just hates Shaq that much.

    Remember, we'd have to give up about $9.8M in salary to be able to take on Iggy's 12.2M. Who do we give up to reach that number?

    Amar'e very, very much wants to be 'the man'. I think he's probably hoping LeBron stays in Cleveland and he signs in New York and the Knicks sign some talented, but not equal players around him.

    CLE had talks with Wiz on Antawn Jamison Monday, but didn't chat with Pacers on Troy Murphy, sources say. Indy has 4-5 suitors for Murphy.
