Hello and welcome to this trade deadline extravaganza edition of group chat.

I am Justin Verrier, joined as always by Rob Mahoney,

Jay Kyle, man, the energy just coursing through us. At least that's like maybe just the caffeine

because I haven't eaten in like 10 hours, but it's something. Yeah, a lot of caffeine, very little food,

very little sense of where we are or everyone in the NBA is.

Like the flowchart of what happened today, I find absolutely dizzying.

Yeah, a lot of stuff going on.

I'm pretty well-fed.

I had some chilly, so I'm sitting back feeling good.

But as per usual, feeling well-fed.

What constitutes an extravaganza? Do we need to have

like some kind of circus performer come in in the middle of the pod? I don't know. I've always wondered

that. Or do we just need to sort of be in a more entertaining mood? Explain that one to because

Rob's got his arms out in a Rilo-Kiley shirt. I think that's already enough to constitute an

extravaganza. But what do you guys?

That bumps us up from a bonanza, which we tend to do when we forget to change it up.

Or Palooza. To do an extravaganza. Yeah, Paloosa. We do some Paloosa too.

I think at the point where Tyas Jones has been traded to four different teams in the last 24 hours,

that's an extravaganza in my book.

Yes.

A lot of just middling veterans got traded in that last hour.

Pretty much was pretty docile at the end there outside of the big old Visa Zubach trade
