Locked On Warriors

The Cavaliers decided that one trade was not enough, firing off a series of moves that have completely transformed their roster. They got younger and fast, but this still doesn't guarantee a trip back to the Finals, or that LeBron will stay in Cleveland beyond June. - The Warriors stood pat at the deadline despite inquiring about players such as Avery Bradley and Marco Bellinelli. They could potentially pick up Joe Johnson off waivers if his is bought out by the Kings, but the Celtics and Rockets are also in contention for the veteran's services. If the Warriors do pick up Johnson, they will have three former All-Stars coming off the bench along with Andre Iguodala and David West, in addition to the four current All-Stars starting for the team. - Tonight the Warriors face the Mavericks at home, potentially without Kevin Durant, who is nursing a left hand contusion. Dallas is hurting as well, and could be without Harrison Barnes, their leading scorer tonight. The Mavs jettisoned Devin Harris at the deadline in favor of Doug McDermott, who may or may not be available to play tonight. - Around the NBA, the Jazz and Knicks made moves at key positions, while the Clippers signed Lou Williams to a new three-year deal rather than trading him. They also held onto DeAndre Jordan. The Celtics kept Marcus Smart and Atlanta elected not to trade Marco Bellinelli. The Lakers transformed by picking up Isaiah Thomas and Channing Frye, while also opening up some cap space for the summer. - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
