    I wonder what the update is for Exum flying out to Cleveland to workout with the Cavs.

    OT:

    Asked many GMs if he they thought Houston could move Lin and/or Asik. "No," at least three GMs told me. "No teams are willing to help Houston. There isn't a huge market for a backup center and backup point guard making $8.3 million and being paid $15 million. They're stuck."

    Sorry, Mannix is hack. :)

    Lol. So he asked "many" but 3 said, so somehow no became the consensus...

    This probably isn't a bold prediction, but I think Exum will be a major disappointment if he's a top 4 pick. He sounds like a guy you'd take in the late first round or early second round.

    Haha, that is not a real tweet but that's what he's been spewing since the Finals ended.

    No one is interested in helping out Houston
    No one is interested in Lin at $15 million
    No one is interested in Asik at $15 million
    They're gonna be hard to move; harder than people think.
    LeBron, Howard and Harden wouldn't get out of the 2nd round

    TRASH!! Stick to boxing.

    Agreed. Theres a reason he's been an unknown. His agent is clearly hiding him to avoid scrutinization.
