Listening to Sonny Vacarro right now:

Gasol:
- MEM lock

On Aldridge:
- going to the Spurs
- personality doesn't fit with LA or NY

DAJ:
- Staying with the Clippers
- If not he is going to Dallas
- LAC can't afford to lose him

DWade:
- Knicks, Lakers, or Clippers
- Likely stays in Miami

Draymond & Jimmy Butler staying put

Greg Monroe:
- Going to the Knicks

Tobias Harris:
- Either Orlando or Boston

Milsap:
- Rumors that Utah is gonna try to bring him back

Love:
- Initially thought he'd be LA bound, but recently he has heard that he is staying put

Boogie:
- Can't see that situation working out. Either him or Karl are going to be moved out.

Wes Matthews & Lopez:
- Likely overpaid to stay in Portland due to the Aldridge absence

That's all pretty boring. Hope things don't go according to that script.

Math at least workable if the Trail Blazers wanted to participate in a sign and trade, sending Aldridge to LA after they sign Jordan?

According to a person with knowledge of the Lakers' situation, Bryant is expected to be part of the meeting with Aldridge on Tuesday night in Los Angeles. The meeting with the big man who is widely expected not to re-sign with the Portland Trail Blazers is also expected to include Lakers president and governor Jeanie Buss, general manager Mitch Kupchak, assistant general manager Glenn Carraro, coach Byron Scott, senior vice president of finance Tim Harris, as well as representatives from Time Warner Cable and AEG. The person spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the process.

consider the source but

quote:

Ramona Shelburne on ESPN:

-Jordan wants to be wooed and wants to feel special. Mavericks gonna make a strong push. Clippers think they have a good chance of resigning. Edge Clippers...but if a team makes him feel like a center piece. Then he would consider moving.

-Lakers plan to be big players in free agency. 9:01 they will be meeting with Lamarcus Aldrigde. Lakers are first in the door for meetings. They have something special planned for Lamarcus to woo him. They have all there eggs in the basket with him.

Perhaps a small tip for LaMarcus Aldridge suitors is he loves playing alongside fellow Blazers free agent big man Robin Lopez, a source said

Have heard this floated as well. Have also heard suggestions of a Tyson/Love package to LAL. Both repped by @excelsm
