The first one is too good for Miami. I doubt very much they'll be able to move Shaq while taking NO bad contracts back.

The second is too good for Orlando. They get a decent starting PF in Haslem for expirings?

The third is too good for Miami again. Golden State has no reason to spend $9M on a backup PG. They can offer that 2nd rounder and capspace elsewhere (ATL for Lue?) without taking on J-Will's contract.

Lakers decline.

Why do we want a guy who wanted 30 million, ran out of town, and basically is on the end path of his career.

Cavs aren't giving up their cap flexibility for Blount.
