Old and newer updates after the jump
UPDATE (9:30 AM):
Well that came and went fast. Lee apparently has to approve trades, and nobody from the Kings has contacted his reps and there isn't enough time before the deadline to do so apparently. Also, Ford is saying he wouldn't approve.
Per Woj Twitter – "As much as Kings would love David Lee, there isn't enough time to get him to agree to trade, source says. No contact made with his reps."
Also, according to Woj, there will be "fireworks" if Kings don't trade T-Mac. His agent represents Tyreke Evans and a few other Kings.
UPDATE (9:52 AM):
So its probably unlikely, but we'll see what happens.
UPDATE (9:59 AM): TZ jumping in for a second to let you know that Arn Tellem is being pretty silly right now. Just a bizarre demand.

UPDATE (10:19 AM):
