2020 NBA Trade Prospects

New year new trades!

It seems Christmas Day starts the casual watchers NBA season. And man did the last couple months give us some exciting basketball.

It seems fitting for Vince Carter to end his career at the start of the new decade in one of the most thrilling championship races in recent history. But the biggest things to talk about are trades.

So let's begin what I like to call Where-do-I-want-them-to-go (the name is still a work in progress).

The two biggest names are Andre Drummond and Kevin Love.

First off Drummond: undoubtedly the best re-bounder in the league. His timing and knack for rebounding makes him seem like he is magnetized to the ball. But he hasn't been in a winning situation in awhile. The grit and grind esk Pistons team with a 8th seed appearance last year can't really be amounted to anything but a bad eastern conference. While all the rumors have him at Atlanta, and while this is would spell a good future for Atlanta. As a fan I want him with Kemba at Boston. Get rid of Gordon Hayward and like a second round pick or two and bring him in. Honestly the biggest issue Boston has had is in the center position

A rebounding king in Andre Drummond with Enes coming off the bench is ridiculous.

We knock on their front court but Enes is good when he isn't your main front court.

Plus potential pick and role with Kemba! This team might just be too hard to guard if they got a front court.

Next is the other front court player: Kevin Love. Who has had a lot of problems with management in Cleveland, needs to get out. But man that guy is suffering. This is when we start the #freeKLove.

Although, that contract is crazy for any team to take up. I kind of want him anywhere but Portland. Because the last thing Portland needs is that contract, they need depth and getting him doesn't give them that. Especially when Nurkic is a part of that team. The hope is, for Portland, once play off starts you have Nurkic and Hassan in the front court and Carmelo not getting that many touches. Because the last thing they want is midrange Melo in a series where they can game-plan against him.

My landing spot for Kevin Love: Lakers Land. I have no clue how they will make this work but there has to be some way. A bron Kevin reunion would bring a tear to my eye. And that team may get a stretch big that might give them enough fire power against the unstoppable Giannis.

Either way these are both guys I want to see wearing new uniform soon.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
