At that point NBA GM’s ‘turnt’ up — Mark Stein tried to keep up with Adrian Wojnarowski — Sam Hinkie somehow acquired another 1st round pick — while Pat Riley proved he can sell water to a well.
According to hardwoodparoxysm — 17 NBA teams were involved in trades — with 34 different guys moving on to a different destination.
