Misleading SI headline

I was cycling through the "Truth and Rumor" section on cnnsi.com when I found a headline that said "Magic Made Offer For Tinsley." Here's the LINK. However, if you follow the link on that page to the Orlando Sentinel it has the already reported blurb about the Magic having a stranding offer to take Tinsley and deciding it didn't make sense to have an expensive backup. The SI page makes it sound like the Magic have a standing offer out to take Tinsley, but the real Sentinel piece has the more sensical statement that the Magic (and probably every team in the league) have a standing offer from the Pacers to take Tinsley.

Stupid SI got my hopes up.

My hopes haven't been up in months. Ever since the first month of the season ended I thought this could be a long drawn out saga. Looks like we're in this for a while yet. Someone prove me wrong please....
