When I see a line here or there that a team is interested in a player from a writer who usually has good sources, I think its very interesting. A list like this, with about 4 or 5 teams for each player, I suspect its mostly made up. They just don't have that much information.

Since we did not add much shooting in the draft I am sure they are looking to add some guys who can hit a three and create their own shot. That was the biggest hole last year.
