The Pi Brew
We’re back with a new Brew. The NBA trade deadline is today and teams have already started making moves. Will the Sixers follow? Super Bowl LVI takes place from Hollywood on Sunday. Indoor mask mandates are starting to go bye bye. We have a lot to get to, so let’s do this. It’s Brew time!
Make the deal happen
A month ago, Philadelphia’s Daryl Morey called Brooklyn on James Harden. Sean Marks refused the conversation. There are three days until the Thursday trade deadline for the Sixers to try again — or wait until the summer. ESPN story with @RamonaShelburne: https://t.co/jCJXc9pLHi
