Here we go.  Thoughts on what is going to happen?

There we go. It’s only fair.

Adrian Wojnarowski
Reporting with @RamonaShelburne on ESPN: The NBA has opened up investigations into possible tampering violations involving two sign-and-trade deals completed in free agency: New Orleans and Chicago centered on Lonzo Ball, and Toronto and Miami centered on Kyle Lowry. Story soon.

Can Cs get Ball?

It would bring me joy seeing Lowry's deal nixed, but I doubt the league does it

Pat Riley’s head wood explode! Lol. It would be justice since he was the one rumored to make a stink a out the Bogdanovic deal to Milwaukee.

If the league truly wants to stop tampering, they need to reject both of these deals. I'm not saying that I wouldn't be super-angry if it happened to the Cs, but it's obvious these two deals (among others) involved tampering. What else could they really do - go the Joe Smith/T-Wolves route and strip those teams of 1st round picks?

What a weird move...

To answer Roy's question, I could see Rondo going to Philly.

Maybe they wanted to open some slots via a 1-for-3 deal or they have another deal coming. Otherwise, don't like the trade for the LAC, but no analysis yet of why they wanted Bledsoe.

The Grizzlies, with an already packed roster, are open-minded on the futures of all three players in Memphis -- and will likely consider trades with some of those arriving in this deal. Memphis gets salary cap flexibility in the summer of 2022 with trade.

Get scumbag Beverly...

Could also see him in Miami, they don’t really have a backup pg unless they want to push that role on Oladipo
Mavs
Wiz
Hornet

Hey hey now! Bledsoe is coming home!

I was watching a game the other day on youtube of a rookie or 2nd year Bledsoe against the Miami Heat. My god, what an athlete he was. He had 3 insane blocks right at the rim. They were calling him the mini-LeBron due to his athletic gifts.

So nice to see him come back to where his career started. A little romance (sporting wise).
