07:21 AM ET 07.29 | Things may get worse for the Timberwolves before they get better. If the Nets had won both games against the T-Wolves last season, rather than vice versa, Minnesota would have owned the league's worst record. There's an excellent chance that will happen this season, especially after Minny gave up on supposed franchise player Al Jefferson, giving him to the Jazz for draft picks. That may be a smart long-term move as the 'Wolves try to become a running team. But even after adding Michael Beasley and drafting Wesley Johnson, they may give the 1972-73 Sixers a run for their money as the worst team in NBA history.

07:58 AM ET 07.29 | The Pacers, not known for their trade activity, may be looking for a change. The Indianapolis Pacers haven't made a trade in almost two years but the team doesn't "feel comfortable going into next season with their current roster," according to the Indianapolis Star. So the team's general manager, David Morway, is apparently spending some extra time on the phones to try and make a trade happen that would send point guard T.J. Ford or swingman Mike Dunleavy packing, the paper reports.

07:18 AM ET 07.29 | LeBron will hear worse, but Chris Bosh earned an earful Wednesday while at the New York Stock Exchange to ring the opening bell. Bosh, 26, who signed a six-year, $110 million deal with the Heat, rang the bell to promote his work with After-School All-Stars, which provides after-school activities to children across the US. ... But as Bosh toured the floor, one trader heckled him, "It would have been a madhouse in here had you signed with the Knicks." Another said, "Come back in 2016." Even a security guard got into the act, telling him: "Forget Miami, New York is where it's at." Bosh, who's finishing a week's visit here that included a trip to the Hamptons, told us, "About 600 people have told me I should have signed with the Knicks."

07:18 AM ET 07.29 | For the second time in three years, Andrew Bynum, who reportedly also had his right knee drained three times in 2009-10, had knee surgery. Bynum's brother, Corey Thomas, said Bynum will rehabilitate his knee for six to eight weeks. The Lakers start training camp Sept. 25, which is earlier than usual because they will play exhibition games in London and Barcelona in early October. The procedure was performed by Dr. David Altchek at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York. Thomas said the doctor "found nothing surprising." "He was in good spirits," Thomas said. "He'll be ready to go when the season starts."

07:19 AM ET 07.29 | While Portland is reportedly looking to move Rudy Fernandez quickly, that may mean next week, according to a tweeted update from Portland. "Rudy trade talks likely on back burner until Sunday. GM Cho tells agent Andy Miller he will meet w/coach McMillan in Vegas on Sun to discuss." The rumor mill has been buzzing with reports of the Celtics being in the mix to acquire Trail Blazers guard Rudy Fernandez, who is reportedly unhappy with his current role behind Brandon Roy. ... That doesn't mean, though, that speculation will be curbed until then. On Tuesday, Fernandez wrote in his blog, "There is gossip about my future and everyone asks me but I'm really just focused on the national team right now."
