The Trade Deadline has passed, but NBA front offices never stop evaluating the trade value of the players on their rosters, and neither will we. However, we are going with a new format with a double deadline. The deadlines will only be 10-15 minutes for each team and the cap run downs will remain the same, with a little bit more speed. This week, we take on 2 inactive real deadline teams and activate them in our fake deadline: the Minnesota Timberwolves and Charlotte Hornets. Kaan assumes his role as the GM and negotiates trades with DJ Rekstad and Will Pennington on an entertaining episode.ALSO, The Bench Mob Basketball Giveaway!
