Collusion?

Could somebody explain to me what is ok, what is not, and who might have crossed the line this offseason?
We're not supposed to even be able to talk to free agents (for another 15 minutes right?), so where are details about a possible deal for Teague coming from? Same with the proposed Blake deal?
And weren't there other situations this summer that seemed a bit . . . sketchy? Something about that CP3 situation?

It seems the NBA just said we don't care about this stuff at some point. There is too much stuff being reported there is no way the NBA is gonna crack down at this point. It is weird though. I don't know what the line is. There has to be something besides actually signing the deals.

Word on the street...
Wolves just got caught trying to sign Joe Smith. 19 future draft picks lost.

Agents can still legally talk to teams on player's behalf

It's all illegal, but there's no incentive to shut it down because it's keeping the NBA relevant longer.

Yep. Borrowing the NFL's 24/7/365 marketing model...
