That’s the thing about rumors – they are not facts. Meanwhile, the NBA needs them. They make for content. The league’s rumor mill will always operate, whether we like it or not.
For example, Turner was the subject of rumors for a long time. The Pacers were widely expected to trade him at this year’s deadline.
