VIDEO: The Best NBA Trade Analysis Comes From This 7-Year Old Girl

Not sure why anybody would think to film the reaction of a seven-year-old girl being told about all the NBA’s trade deadline, but we should all be glad that Trent Combs did. It begins with a triumphant fist pump over the Lakers trading Luke Walton, then there’s some excited clapping when she finds out L.A. kept Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum ... And then there’s the Gerald Wallace deal, and a frowny face soon turns to hysterical, adorable tears.

SOURCES: We need a lot more sports analysis from seven-year-old girls.

I’m glad YouTube wasn’t around when I was seven because I’m pretty sure my parents would’ve captured at least six different Orioles-related tantrums that would live on forever.

Now I’m off to pitch SB Nation YouTube on my new idea for pre-school Around The Horn.
