Three NBA teams that could make a significant turnaround to disappointing seasons after the All-Star break this weekend

The NBA All-Star break is finally here. With NBA All-Star weekend comes many things to look forward to.

There’s the spectacle full of glitz and glamor that the NBA puts on for the world and its fans, trade talks heat up, teams scramble to land another piece to the puzzle, and guys get needed rest from the grit and grind of the NBA season.

After the showcase is over in NOLA this weekend, we will all move on and start to turn our attention to the playoff race. It’s true that much of the NBA playoffs is the same year-to-year sans a couple of teams in each conference, but post All-Star weekend gives teams a chance to reboot and finish strong.

In the Eastern and Western Conferences, teams are neck-and-neck aiming to lock up those final 6, 7, and 8 spots. Let’s take a look at the teams on the outside looking in at this current moment who have a “fighting chance” to get things turned around for postseason play.
