With the NBA’s trade deadline around the corner, everyone’s got expectations. 

To be sure, there are some heavily circulated rumors. All eyes will be on the Toronto Raptors, Chicago Bulls, Dallas Mavericks, and others leading up to February 9th.

It’s entirely possible that some of the league’s general managers are cooking up a trade that will break the internet. 

For example, nobody is expecting Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers to get moved this season. Both Lillard and the Blazers seem intent on winning together. 

Here’s a deal that sends him to the Philadelphia 76ers anyway.
