This year there's only one deadline
In years past, we've always the August waiver period, in which trades could still be made so long as the players -- with postseason eligibility still intact -- passed through waivers first. That provided us with a number of compelling post-July 31, often involving big names on big contracts. Starting this season, however, there's no August waiver period, and thus teams must make their trades by July 31 if they want the players they acquire to be eligible for postseason rosters. In other words, the July 31 deadline is the only game in town this season. That raises the stakes, or at least forces buyers and sellers to choose their lanes earlier.
