With the trade deadline well behind us, a recent poll conducted by SB Nation for its NBA readers asked two simple questions: Which team made the biggest improvement at the deadline? Which player moved before the deadline will have the biggest impact.<\/p>\n
Per the poll that aimed to answer the first question above, SB Nation readers seem to think that the Cleveland Cavaliers made the biggest improvement of the deadline.<\/p>\n
In turn, the answer to the second question \u2014 that is, which player moved before the deadline readers think will make the biggest impact \u2014 was none other than the Cavaliers\u2019 signature deadline acquisition: James Harden.<\/p>\n
To refresh everyone\u2019s memory, Harden was acquired by the Cavaliers in exchange for sending Darius Garland and a second-round pick to the Los Angeles Clippers.<\/p>\n
The Cavaliers \u2014 who sport a 34-21 record heading into the All-Star Break \u2014 are currently fourth in the Eastern Conference. Do you think they have what it takes to surprise people with a deep playoff run?
