Introduction

Justin, Rob, and Wos answer some of the biggest questions around the league now that the trade deadline has passed, starting with whether the Suns are the best team in the West (02:16). They also discuss the outlook of the Knicks and Nets (09:36), whether the Lakers or Warriors will be more miserable to watch (21:16), and whose on-the-margin acquisitions will matter most (29:35). Finally, they talk about the Mavericks (37:31), the buyout guy that will have the most impact (47:16), and which player or team will surge after the All-Star break (51:15).
