LOS ANGELES — What was supposed to be a trade deadline that would better equip the Los Angeles Clippers for the postseason quickly turned into a conflict of differing ideas and strategy. Now, a large, Russell Westbrook-sized cloud hangs over the franchise’s head as the All-Star break nears, with star Paul George seemingly contradicting Lawrence […]

The Indiana Pacers made a modest improvement at the trade deadline. However, we feel they should have acted with more urgency given their greater ambitions. They were involved in a transaction with two other clubs that netted them three players, three draft selections, and cash. In general, the Pacers bought assets from other teams using […]
