But it seems like the overall NBA entertainment product now is more built on compulsively following player transactions than on court product, so tradeline day is probably a bigger day than playoffs for many NBA fans these days.
Repeating the same narrative. Not sure why. No one acted like one deadline trade would solve all issues but it would have improved the team. Even if Fournier is just another THJ level shooter he would have improved the roster. No more minutes for Burke and a safety blanket in case KP or someone else misses more games. 15-20 ppg on above average efficiency would have made a difference. Mavs just paid 50% of the Fournier price for JJ Redick. It´s not like they aren´t willing to use picks.
