Would it be possible to have a google doc or something that has updated rosters and assets for each team?

That's probably a good idea.

If someone else would be willing to make it that would be greatly appreciated.

Twitter update from Woj

Sixers offered New York Okafor and their 2016 first rounder for Porzingis. New York wanted more. Fans are left wondering why the Knicks took the Celtics offer over the sixers

Knick fans are calling for Phil's resignation.
Woj twitter update

Sixers are putting the word out there that the draft picks are on the table. They were willing to move them for Porzingis and won't shy away from the right deal.

Per Broussard: lakers have made it known Clarkson, Nance, and Randle are available. However, this IS Broussard. So make what you will of it
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

Woj: Sources are telling me that Jackson finds it hilarious that Hinkie obviously has no idea what the concept of basketball "fit" means. Okafor has no business playing anywhere near Lopez in New York, and though the Philly first would've been nice, Jackson thinks the Boston/Brooklyn pick swap in 2017 will yield similar results.

Woj: The addition of an All-Star in Thomas and another good fit in Bradley made the Boston deal much more useful to the Knicks than a no-defense center who isn't a compatible fit with out current team.

Woj: Jackson also finds it hilarious that Hinkie cannot grasp the fact of basketball fit, even when he's taken three center prospects in three consecutive drafts, and none of them can effectively share the floor together. Okafor is also not an ideal fit for the triangle, which further made the Boston deal more attractive.

Woj: Jackson is confident that they can now sway Durant this summer with the allure of the NBA's largest market, two All-Stars to play alongside, and excellent defenders around him in Bradley, Afflalo, and Lopez.

Woj: Jackson was originally open to the idea of getting Okafor and/or the Philly 2016 pick from Philly, but to Jackson's dismay there was surprisingly absolutely no market interest in Carmelo, Afflalo, or Lopez, which made Jackson's choice to reload around Carmelo even easier.

Lowe: Really love what Ainge is doing. He's being aggressive and getting younger. Celtics' future is bright.

Woj: Certain GMs around the league are questioning Ainge's motives with his recent moves. The Celtics were third in the East when they started this semi-tear down with their trade to New York, and they were already the fourth youngest team in the league. Getting younger is questionable in this circumstance. Many thought that they should start consolidating assets rather than trading their more established pieces away.  ;)

Shams Charania: one league executive for a contending team, when asked about bostons deal with New York, was shocked. "Why did they dismantle the team they had? They were a legitimate eastern conference threat. I would have been scared to play them in the playoffs. And to ship off your only all star, right before all star weekend, to your division rival? Shocking"

Trade Update

Woj: The Houston Rockets have sent Dwight Howard, Trevor Ariza, and their 2017 1st round pick to the New York Knicks for Robin Lopez, Aaron Afflalo, Derrick Williams, Dallas 2016 1st, and New York's 2017 1st round pick (has the ability to swap this pick with the better of Boston's and Brooklyn's 1st round pick in 2017).

Proof: http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=go6tkuo. The Knicks are also not in violation of the Ted Stepien rule due to having Houston's 2017 first round pick.
