The 2015 NBA trade deadline didn’t come and go without being heard. In fact, it was almost the complete opposite.
Year after year, we often build up deadline day with anticipation of trade rumors and musings, only to see it all for nothing when we only get a handful of insignificant moves. But not this year. Woj bombs were heard, and felt.
The Miami Heat snatched another disgruntled star, the Oklahoma City Thunder added necessary depth ahead of a potential huge first round playoff series against the Warriors or Grizzlies and the Phoenix Suns practically blew up everything they had going in their backcourt.
Even the great Adrian Wojnarowksi needed a moment.
Good lord.
