Can't believe how close this all-star game is. Refreshing.

[Meacon Keaton]

Even with the best players in the world all on the same court, Westbrook still feels obligated to take every shot.

[Quom]

I was hoping he'd go for 100

Goodbye cruel world

[Monkey D. Lars]

It's just like LeBron said; Let Westbrook be Westbrook.

[Mofoticon]

It is trade deadline day in the NBA...so far

Goran Dragic to Miami

Kevin Garnett to Minnesota for Thad Young

Arron Affalo to Portland for a 1st

Ramon Sessions to Washington for Andre Miller

[Red Devil-Taker316]

Reggie Jackson to Detroit as well. Kyle Singler to OKC. Kendrick Perkins ended in Utah too.

EDIT: Brandon Knight to the Suns is a shocker.

So Utah fans, did OKC get better with Kanter?

[Red Devil-Taker316]

Isaiah Thomas sent to Boston.

Suns as of now went fro, Dragic and Thomas to Knight. Depending what they get back from the Suns of course.

[JasonM]

MCW to the Bucks.

[VerbalPuke]

Pistons got Jackson, and Singler as well as Augustin.

Also, rumor is we're working another deal right now. We were linked to Joe Johnson earlier.

[Rafael]

Can you guys take a good look at this Lance Stephenson lad?

Please?

[VerbalPuke]

Ugh....we re-acquired Tayshaun Prince.

I don't know if I like that.

No, I don't like it. Oh well, couldn't have given up too much for him.

[Your Mom]

I know the Sixers are tanking but why trade away a good young player? Don't you need those when you hopefully in your mind get the first pick and take Okafor?

[Red Devil-Taker316]

They probably don't really think MCW is any good. Putting up stats on a bad team doesn't really tell you anything.

[VerbalPuke]

I'm more shocked that Milwaukee traded Brandon Knight. They're playing well, and he's playing well...why trade him?

[DYSI]

So the Thunder and Pistons both talked with the Nets about trades and they basically cut the middle man and dealt with each other. I was looking forward to getting Reggie. :/

We dealt KG to the Wolves in a unexpected trade. Thad Young is much younger and I'm glad we got rid of the "KG must start" situation that I hated. Who starts every game and only plays 14 minutes max?

His leadership and defensive influence will be missed but he doesn't have anything in the tank to contribute on a regular basis. And now that Boston trade is officially even more horrible since we traded 2 firsts and Gerald Wallace for basically Thad Young.

[JasonM]

MCW is a decent player, but he's a spray-shooter on a spray-shooting team. They need someone that's more of a conventional guard rather than a 6ft6 faux-forward who'se shooting numbers were bad in his rookie season, and have only gone down this season... He's 38% on the floor, that's not 3 points, that's from the floor... Simply too inefficient shooting wise, and even though they have team options, they probably felt safer trading him now than in the future.

And the reason Knight is leaving Milwaukee is very much him being in the final year of his contract, and no doubt aiming to strike big on free agency. Because as far as basketball is concerned, Milwaukee is a black hole.

MCW is sorta like a young Kidd. Who better to coach him than his future self? Ooooohhh..

It was already pretty horrible when one of this picks became Damian Lillard.
