Despite 11th-hour push inside for deal, Clippers unlikely to make any big trade today, per source. Team wants to preserve chemistry, depth.

Ken Berger ‏@KBergCBS
A person involved in prior iteration of Clippers-Garnett talks said he's detected no renewed push from Clips to revisit deal.

Where is the "Insider" A. Sherrod Blakely? Isn't he the Mel Kiper of the trade deadline?

Blakely: "Celts currently rumored to be offering Fab Melo for Lebron James and a Heat first round pick. Heat are shocked that the offering price is so low..."

"My sources confirm this. Heat management feels they are getting a steal"- Broussard

I think i'm on the fence on that one 

Yeah seems like a bad trade for us... maybe they throw in Wade and Bosh if we give them Bass and Lee. I'll tweet the insider Blakely and get some info... haha need a little humor during these next few hours

That and i think Danny is working hard on getting a 3rd team involved. Get Utah in and try to work something out. They need a SF we have Green ATL wants value and or expiring's they could get that with Jefferson. So we'll see but I think we end up getting Smoove.

Clippers will be working the phones up until the deadline but at this point a trade would be a surprise.

Sources say KG is dead-set on staying with the Celtics as long as Paul Pierce is there and they are a playoff team.

Don't see KG trade happening to the Clippers but it would be easy move if he did. KG woke up in his Malibu home this morning.

would love to dump bass and somebody else for a decent contributor

Breaking News: sources are saying Boston is pushing hard to make a trade, but are really trying hard to stand pat.

My sources are Chris Broussard and the invisible gremlins I see under my bed at night.

I actually think its the right thing for the clippers to do. They have a good team and they are pretty young. Deandre is good piece to have doensn't need to score on that team but will take his 7ppg and Bledsoe can get you back some talent at the SG or SF spot eventually.

I have a feeling thats whats happening right now. Danny knows Smoove wants to play here. I don't know if he wants to pay him a max contract though. Maybe he feels he'll take less to be in Boston with Rondo. Maybe thats why Rondo is no longer available? Maybe I'm putting two in two together or just making up scenarios? Trade deadline syndrome haha

[MisinFormed]

It's official!!!

Fab Melo traded for Washington's Jordan Crawford

if you can get smith without moving pierce then go get it...just don't think boston has enough to do that
