PM Roundup: Let's Check in on the Lakers Pursuit of LaMarcus Aldridge
By Jason Lisk
PM Roundup, where hope that someday Jimmer Fredette will announce his free agent decision on our pages and become a senior editor at the Big Lead.
Also, since NBA news gets thrown around, we’ll use this spot today as NBA free agency roundup central.

This Date in TBL History: We were commiserating over Wondo’s point-blank miss against Belgium and marveling at Tim Howard’s performance in defeat (2014) … Russian dash cam cow sex (2013) … I broke down one of Skip Bayless’ hot takes, on white American-born basketball players (2012) … Friday Flashbacks, from Joltin’ Joe to Andres Escobar (2011).
Around the Internet: Well, you might have seen something on Harbaugh and Cowherd, or Tiger Woods going off the fairway or Keith Olbermann on this here site. These are the reasons I will be sipping margaritas tomorrow afternoon and not doing a PM Roundup. Enjoy your extended holiday weekend.
