Strap in for a bumpy 10 days!
Writing this weekly column gets really interesting every time the trade deadline approaches. Who’s available via trade? Which teams are buying or selling? How is every good player somehow linked in trade rumours to contenders?
Take this week for example. The Pistons unofficially kicked off the trade season with a minor deal (Hamidou Diallo for Svi Mihailiuk plus a 2nd round pick). Is Troy Weaver done dealing or is there truth behind the Jerami Grant rumours? Is Utah’s recent signing of Ersan Ilyasova a precursor to bigger moves for the NBA’s best team?
