Trades will happen but it's a bit crazy the deadline is just 8 days away and there hasn't already been much action or strong rumors. And yeah, it's next Thursday. Snuck up fast.
You may have just jinxed yourself.

Two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo is ready for a new home at the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline or in the offseason as several rival teams make aggressive offers to the Milwaukee Bucks for him, and the franchise is starting to listen, league sources tell ESPN.
Wow Shams and the Bucks heard me
I just really hope it's not New York or Detroit but I fear it may be NY (they are apparently trying to add Jrue AND Giannis)
I wonder who NY would trade, Brunson or KAT?
I?d imagine KAT since him and Giannis play the same position. Trading Brunson leaves the Knicks without a starting point guard.
Point Giannis
G: Giannis
G: Mikal Bridges
F: Anunoby
F: Towns
C: M Robinson
Or Josh Hart instead of M Robinson. Or maybe Miles McBride as a shot making off ball PG (sort of like BJ Amstrong on MJ's Bulls).
Agreed on Towns being the guy to go though. Brunson is a cult hero to the Knicks at this point. They won't trade him. Pity, I like the team better with Towns than with Brunson.
