MPJ Trade Rumors, Is the Title Race Open? + LeBron the All-Star? | ALL NBA PODCAST

Adam Mares is joined by NBA insider Marc Stein to break down the biggest NBA storylines as the trade deadline approaches, starting with a deep dive into Michael Porter Jr.’s trade market, what Brooklyn could realistically want in return, and which teams make the most sense as a fit. The guys explore whether the Golden State Warriors could enter the MPJ sweepstakes, how active the NBA trade deadline is shaping up to be, and why the Houston Rockets may need to go all in sooner than expected. They also examine growing concerns around the Denver Nuggets’ health, debate which team is better positioned for a long playoff run between Denver and the San Antonio Spurs, and discuss how worried the Oklahoma City Thunder should be about the rest of the Western Conference elite. The episode wraps with a timely conversation about LeBron James and whether he still deserves an NBA All Star selection this season.
