Each Saturday brings high-level statistical analysis from a man who hasn't taken a math class since high school.

We've reached the midway point of the NBA season, All-Star Weekend, and with the trade deadline fast approaching there are rumors aplenty of top players flipping jerseys.

(I've included players' overall Yahoo rankings to show that these trades aren't ridiculous.)
