This episode I'm on a solo ride to take you through the stretch run of the NBA season.  The smoke from the trading deadline has cleared, all-star weekend is in the books & now it's the aftermath of it all. 
I give my thoughts on the stories surrounding all-star weekend, Kawhi being the funniest man in the league, and I evaluate the deadline pick ups from the top teams in the Eastern conference.
Will Toronto, Philly or Milwaukee take that next step with these quality additions? 
I also dive into every storyline that I'm looking forward to in the second half of the season. 
How will the Lakers finish off? Can the Celtics pull it all together? Will Giannis finally get out of 1st round purgatory? Can the Rockets keep their foot on the gas with a healthy roster?
