The NBA trade deadline is one week away, next Thursday, Feb. 9 at 3 p.m. ET. After extending Myles Turner’s contract, the expectations around the deadline will be less around a roster altering blockbuster deal and more around a roster building deal that can both improve and balance the playing rotation.
Let’s face it, the current roster is imbalanced in more ways than one with a glut of big men that are better playing at center, along with a bunch of very useful, fun and active wings that are closer to shooting guards than power forwards.
