The NBA gets warmer

Maybe they were right, last week, when they told us the NBA draft would be full of trades. When they encouraged us to tune in because, hey, 90 percent of the NBA tries to make the playoffs now, 88 percent of the NBA is unhappy with its potential playoff rotation, free agency stinks, the draft is weak, your GM’s contract is up, here come the trades.

Instead we got Three Stooges Syndrome, every team trying to trade and getting in each other’s way. The weekend hits and there is a little noise over Dejounte Murray but that’s it, no trades, every phone line jammed because the capologist wants a word.
