Today's Warnings : 25 August, 2008
A Stern Warning - NBA, NBL and FIBA News & Views — ... The Memphis Edge reports a rumour that a trade may be in the works to send Travis Outlaw to Memphis in order to snare a pure point guard for the Blazers. That PG would presumably be Greg Oden's buddy, Mike Conley Jr or Kyle Lowry. I could only see Kevin Pritchard looking to get Conley Jr if he were to give up Outlaw. In fact, I doubt that he would want to give up Outlaw full stop, given the promise he is showing. It will be very interesting to see if this tale has any tail. ...

Rumors and Free Agent Updates - Sad News Edition
LOY's PLACE a celtics green blog — ... The Grizzlies gave Josh Smith an offer sheet that the Hawks quickly matched and they have been linked in talks to the Iranian center, Hamed Ehadadi, who is now available to talk to teams. Now there is word that they are in talks with the Knicks concerning Zach Randolph. The Grizzlies are willing to part with Darko Milicic who was their big free agent signing last year, in a package that wouldn't involve any of their core players. The Grizzlies seem to be debating whether Randolph would fit the team's style on and off the court but they definitely could use an inside player ...

Grizzlies Talking About Zach Randolph
FanHouse — Filed under: Cavaliers, Grizzlies, Knicks, Eastern, NBA RumorsIs Zach Randolph suddenly a wanted man? After the Cavs reportedly showed interest in the big man last week, Ronald Tillery of the Commercial Appeal (via Knicks Fix) reports the Grizzlies have been talking about acquiring the pudgy power forward, as well. Who would Memphis give up? Tillery says that Darko Milicic is available, and considering Darko's contract ($7 million this year, $7.5 million next) expires just in time for the ...

The Raptors are not a deep team
Arsenalist — ... The Blazers are looking to trade Travis Outlaw who I’ve always wanted on the Raptors from the minute I saw him while the Grizzlies want to trade but aren’t willing to part with Gay, Conley or Mayo. Jamario Moon is a poor man’s Travis Outlaw and if we somehow managed to grab him (which is day-dreaming) I’d feel a lot better about our wing position. Neither is a true scorer but Outlaw provides intelligent defense, a mid-range game and reads scouting reports. ...

Is Memphis Looking to Get into the Zach Randolph Business?
SLAM Online — by Marcel Mutoni For reasons no one can quite figure out yet, Zach Randolph appears to be a pretty popular guy among GM types around the League days. Recently, there was a rumor that Cleveland was interested in the salary-cap destroying southpaw, and now Memphis is reportedly interested, too. From The Memphis Edge: While the Griz were courting Smith they also had trade discussions regarding New York Knicks power forward Zach Randolph. Those discussions — mostly internal – are still ongoing as Randolph has ...

The Z-Bo Sweepstakes
Posting and Toasting — Alright, so maybe it isn't that dramatic. There is, however, a surprising amount of interest around the league for the Knicks' own Zach Randolph. Well, at least one team is interested. As rumors of Zach-to-Cleveland are starting to fizzle (tip of the hat to Cavalier Attitude), new rumblings have emerged from Memphis, of all places. From the Memphis Edge, earlier this week: The Griz are willing to part with Darko Milicic (last year’s big free agent signing) in a package that wouldn’t require a core player (OJ Mayo, Rudy Gay, Mike ...

The Case for Zach Randolph
3 Shades of Blue — ... Every since the offer sheet for Jish Smith was matched, the news of the Memphis Grizzlies being interested in New York Knick power forward Zach Randolph has been cooly received by the Grizzlies fan base. After Isaih Thomas tenure, it seems everything he wrought is deemed toxic and unfit for consumption. So when Memphis Commercial Appeal Grizzlies beat writer Ron Tillery blogged that the Grizzlies were still considering trading for the troubled power forward, I took notice. ...

End of week burn: Olympics talk, 8th in the West, rumors and more
Blazers Blog — ... Some crazy talk out of Memphis involving Travis Outlaw and Mike Conley Jr.: Portland has been calling. The Trail Blazers want a point guard and are willing to part with Travis Outlaw (Starkville native) to get a floor general from the Griz. It's probably more likely that the Blazers would want Conley -- and not Kyle Lowry -- in this scenario because Conley is the purest point guard in the bunch and Portland could pull off a reunion with former teammate Greg Oden. I'm not sure thinning up small forward and adding another point makes a whole lotta sense. (thanks to Taylor for ...

I'm Begging You
Upside and Motor — See that face? See that Ninja Turtle up there? That's a player not even his mother could love. Hell, he's probably a self-hater. And then, just when you think he'll be stuck in Gotham for the foreseeable future, the rumors are popping up everywhere. Pow. Blam. Slam. Kaboosh. I'm hoping it's just summer buzz, and I've been praying that it's not true. But of course, there's a conflict of interests somewhere in my psyche. On one hand, there's the Grizz. For whatever reason the Grizzlies are like the little ...
