Everyone lost their mind at the ridiculous NBA trade deadline

At 2:30 p.m. ET, it looked like we’d have a quiet NBA trade deadline. Then all hell broke loose. Here’s how it played out on Twitter dot com.

First, sportswriters set Twitter ablaze with deals.

And it was too much for NBA Twitter to handle.

Even — especially? — NBA *PLAYERS* were confused as hell.

The media had a little freakout session, too.

When even Woj is at a loss ...

The dust settled, and we tried to make sense of it all.

But mostly we just made jokes.

In the end, everyone had fun online. And that’s what matters.

Maybe one day we’ll figure out what the heck actually happened.
