    Unless we do something drastic, friends, this NBA season will be extraordinarily boring. The only sources of drama are how quickly the Warriors will figure out how to play together — and whether the Cavs can somehow overcome the NBA's latest superteam in the Finals.

    But what if we made some outside-the-box trades to shake up the landscape? These moves wouldn't guarantee anything, of course. Some would be more effective than others in challenging Golden State.

    More than anything, however, making these trades would give us something to talk about as we walk the road to inevitability. (A tip of the hat to ESPN.com's invaluable trade machine, which has deprived us of countless hours we otherwise could have spent with friends or family.)
