It wasn't the Arn Tellem article. I said in the OP - a poster on RealGM saw this information on NBATV and posted about it on the General NBA board there. I thought it was interesting when I read it so I'm passing it on here. There's no "source article" that I can link to, other than the post in the OP.

Here's the actual post:

I didn't actually see it, I read this on RealGM: http://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1029437 Smoove/Marv/picks for Lebron?

Right - the guy who came to the Hawks because he wanted to be the #1 option suddenly changes his mind when his team is on the verge of elite status. Like people said above, any tidbits like that are pure speculation and/or wishful thinking. Someone posted a link to the Bulls RealGM forum recently - Bulls fans consider it a given that Joe will sign with them because Joe's agent is friends with the Bulls GM. Team quality? #1 status? Money? Contract length? Forget all that, Joe just wants to go hang out with his agent's friend in Chicago. :rolleyes:
