Rod Thorn tells Newsday acquiring Shareef Abdur-Rahim is "just a possibility" while the power forward's agent claims "eight NBA teams" are interested in him. Where's the truth lie? The most interest seems to be coming from five teams: the Nets, Kings, Magic, Clippers and Heat...with the Magic coming on strong. The Nets' biggest competitors for the services of Stromile Swift appear to be the Sonics and Rockets and for those of Dale Davis, it's the Pacers, Sonics, Cavs, and Sixers. As for Keyon Dooling, his agent says interest in him is on the rise too.
