I've got some trades for you to ponder...lol
I think it was 1980, not sure, but here goes. Celtics Trade the draft rights to Joe barry Carrol(1st pick) and Ricky Brown(13th pick) for Robert Parrish and the draft rights to Kevin Mchale(3rd pick). The big 3 is born. The Warriors are doomed. Ouch.
How about Roy Boe selling the rights to Julius Erving for 3 million dollars? Not really a trade, but wow. Eugene Dixon's legacy was made with that deal.
How about the St. Louis Hawks trading Bill Russell to Boston for Ed Macauley and Cliff Hagan in 1956. LOL! Cliff "the stiff" Hagan!
How about the this one: Warriors trade Wilt Chamberlain to 76ers for Paul Neumann, Connie Dierking, Lee Shaffer and cash in 1965. That's my Warriors!
Bucks traded Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to Lakers for Elmore Smith, Junior Bridgeman, Brian Winters and Dave Meyers. Wintesr went on to become an interim NBA coach, Meyers a lawyer, and Junior Bridgemen the Bucks janitorial manager.
I can't remember how it went, but I know Moses Malone was traded during the ABA dispersal draft for a first round pick 2 years later. Not bad, but think about this: The next DAY he was then traded for 2 future first rounders. I bet the Blazers still shudder when they hear that one.
