Despite the flurry of movement in the Eastern Conference, most of the best teams in the West stood pat this trade deadline. There was no huge Anthony Davis trade, no superstar team-ups, and not much to change about the conference’s postseason outlook.
The Warriors, Nuggets, and Thunder, the three best teams in the conference, didn’t make a single trade. The Jazz and Spurs also opted not to make any changes. These teams are all playoff locks, and seem content with their rosters as is. With the probably exception of the Spurs, they all should be dangerous in the playoffs.
