This reminds me of when Windhorst quickly backtracked on his report that Lillard has already been in contact with other teams. His excuse was so obviously stupid that nobody actually believes it. But it's almost guaranteed that Lillard's camp called him to tell him to keep his mouth shut about things that the league would consider textbook tampering.
Stein's report was nowhere near as problematic, but he's definitely been spinning the Kawhi/Dallas angle quite a bit lately. I'm just going to assume that Nico gave Stein a quick call to tell him to cool it on the big news until it's official.
