As the NBA All-Star Weekend ends, the Philadelphia 76ers are setting their sights on getting the top record in the NBA Eastern Conference entering the second half of the season. They are currently placed third behind the Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls but they are getting James Harden moving forward. The former MVP has worked with GM Daryl Morey before and there are a lot of expectations for the two personalities in their reunion. Harden has never worked before with a dominating center. He and Embiid are expected by many to be the second coming of Kobe and Shaq.

The Minnesota Timberwolves are having a good season as compared to their past years and they look to finish the season strong. They are 2.5 games behind the Denver Nuggets for sixth place in the NBA Western Conference standings and this team is ahead of the two Los Angeles teams chasing them. Karl-Anthony Towns had an inspiring NBA All-Star Weekend proving that he can compete with the best shooters in the NBA by winning the three-point shootout. He hopes to bring that momentum and infect his teammates with the positive vibes to start the second half of the season.
