    Does anyone else feel like I do. Watching all these trades is like watching the a storm align with all sides bringing and marshalling their forces for one last cosmic battle. The Suns bring in Shaq. Mavs get Kidd. Lakers get Gasol. Celtics make collossus trade preseason to get Garnet to go along with Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. Rockets load up in preseason and now make their bid to get Artest. Spurs have yet to make their move.

    Repent for the End of the World is at Hand!

    i'm interested to see how the rest plays out.

    the western elite are separated by 5 games. a few losses means the world!

    the 8th team may only be 4 games worse than the #1 seed. anything can happen in the playoffs!

    The NBA should now be watched while intoxicated on psychedelic mushrooms.

    No kidding! Not to mention that the Jazz added Kyle Korver so now they are the hottest team in the West. Hornets are firing on all cylinders and you can be sure that the Spurs will make a move with all these trades going on with their rivals. Denver has yet to make their collossus trade but you can bet the farm that they will before the deadline is over.

    I believe the Rockets will get Artest. Then we will see who's top dog in the upcoming Royal Rumble!

    It's funny if the Spurs, the only elite team that has made no moves, come out on top even after all these crazy trades. These trades made big headlines and all but they're not really that great.

    Suns- got Shaq but he might not be healthy, still has to fit in and build chemistry with the team
    Mavs- acquired Kidd, but still have no post presence
    Lakers - stole Gasol, will help them during the season, but when it comes down to it, he's a soft big man who disappears in the playoffs
