NBA: In Depth Lucas Burns

After a peaceful process of selecting the West all-stars, the East all-stars have come to ruin my day. 

The snub list is sickening, and even now I continue to second-guess my picks.

Enjoy the agony of the eastern conference!

All-Star season has arrived! Today I tackle some philosophical all-star questions that will surely impact official all-star voting: at what point do games played matter? Does track record overrule the short-term variability? How much does W/L and seeding actually matter?

Enjoy as I struggle to cobble up a 12-man roster for the West.

I go through all of the impactful moves made at what was one of the busiest trade deadlines in recent history.

- Harden forces his way out of yet another team.

- What exactly are the Kings doing?

- Multi-Team trades.

- Portland's salary dumping escapade

- Spurs underrated deadline

and more!

Today we finish up the final part of my 3-part Trade Deadline series!

Does Ben Simmons find a new home?

Celtics/76ers/Nets Salary dumps.

Can Toronto find a trade partner for Goran Dragic?

Knicks' package for Myles Turner?

Pacers' fire sale.

After going through the Northwest and Pacific Divisions, I go through another 10 teams' potential Trade Deadline moves here in part 2.

Mavs need shooters, do they move Brunson?

Pelicans' home-run trade for Myles Turner?

What does Houston do with their plethora of assets as they continue the rebuild?

Do the Hornets find their upgrade at Center?

Can Miami make a move to stay under the tax?

Today I go through Part 1 of a 3-part Trade Deadline Outlook series. I start off with the Kings, Lakers, Clippers, Suns and Warriors in the Pacific Division, then move onto the Northwest Division with the Jazz, Thunder, Nuggets, Blazers and Timberwolves.
