With All-Star Weekend now in the rearview mirror, it’s time to gear ourselves for the final stretch of the regular season, where meaningful basketball is played and playoff dreams are either fulfilled or squandered.

To honor that, what better way to look at the NBA’s biggest story-lines than through the hazy lens of Super-Overeactionizer?

If you’re hoping to learn more on why LeBron James and the Cavaliers are destined for a championship banner, this isn’t the place for you. No, no, no. Rather, this is the place where Paul George returns from his devastating injury to carry the Pacers on his back and lead them to the promised land. This is where LaMarcus Aldridge goes into 2011 Dirk Nowitzki-mode and brings a ‘chip back to Portland. This is where Blake Griffin’s arm infection forces the Clippers to relocate to Las Vegas after Chris Paul forces his way out to another title contender.

It’s time to strap your seatbelt in, folks. It’s about to get wild.
