What trades do you guys think have turned out to be the most one sided in NBA History?

For example: Kobe Bryant for Vlade Divac (Vlade has been great for Sacramento, but he wasn't too good for Charlotte, while Kobe has turned out to be a superstar for the Lakers)

 

[Crossword]

Dirk Nowitski for Pat Garrity and I forgot who else... but it was pretty bad.

 

[Damian Necronamous]

Also...

Vince Carter for Antawn Jamison. It's probably to early to tell if it is completely one-sided. But Vince has so far had the best career, and has turned a team around. Jamison did have a great year 2 years ago, but this season he had a..."bad" year.

It was dirk for garrity and robert tractor taylor, I think.

Trade

If that was the deal, the Magic got screwed. LOL!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

 

[HEATLUNATIC]

I CANT remember who it was that we traded,but back in the
95'-96' season Miami traded ???? for Tim Hardaway,and he came in 3rd for MVP voting!

 

[Chops]

Ben Wallace and Chucky Atkins for Grant Hill.... :laugh:

The Magic got raped....


Seriously though, how about the Steve Francis trade?

 

[Jason Caffeine]

Chris Webber for Tom Gugliotta..Tom Gugliotta for Donyell Marshall..Donyell Marshall for Danny Fortson.

Also: Mitch Richmond for Billy Owens.

Warrior's decisions

No actually the Raptors wanted Vince all along, the Warriors wanted Jamison all along, and the Mavs wanted Dirk all along. It's a long story, something like this:

Don Nelson was constantly making calls to the Raptors and Golden State trying to find out who the Warriors wanted. Well GS got tired and basically said to Toronto, "Listen, just to shut Nellie up, we'll draft you Vince, you draft us Antawn, and we'll throw in $3 million for the trouble". This was all I remember though, so it's not fully accurate.

But boy, Nellie sure loves to mess with teams on draft day!

 

[Crossword]

Guys, no more GS trades. They have a history of doing trash trades. Gary St. Jean is an idiot, so lay off of them, okay? Maybe it'll be harder that way to make it a hot topic! :laugh:

 

[Lope31]

Scottie Pippen for Polynice back when Pippen was drafted.

 

[Zerto 2000]

the Kobe and Francis trades should be disregarded for two reasons.

1.The teams that got screwed are my fav teams

2.The main reason is the Grizz and Hornets did not draft the two for their own sake, they drafted them for trading.

 

[Damian Necronamous]

Trades

No, the Grizz wanted Frnacis, but he was whining and moaning that he didn't want to play in Canada. They didn't draft him for trading purposes. And look who they got for him, it was a bust.

 

[HEATLUNATIC]

I thought the Grizz got Dickerson for Francis,hes NOT a bust!:no:

I could be wrong,but im pretty sure that Dickerson is who they got in return.

 

[Damian Necronamous]

Trades

Oh yeah, Dickerson could take Francis one on one any day.

 

[HEATLUNATIC]

I DIDNT mean that Dickerson was better:no:,I meant that he WASNT a bust!

 

[BizzyRipsta]

how about the kidd-marbury trade?

 

[jmilz23]

damm yall

My sixers have 2 of the worst ever....#1 pick for Roy Hinson in '86, and Moses Malone for Jeff Ruland. then how bout another GS trade....Mitch Richmond for Billy Owens.

 

[BEEZ]

Charles Barkley for Hornacek, Tim Perry and Andrew Lang.
Van Exel and Lafrentz and Abdul-Wahad for Juwan Howard and Donell Harvey

This has nothing to do with it but drafting Shawn Bradley is one of the worst things the sixers have done

That was totally one-sided. The Nets go to the Finals after winning 26 games, and the Suns go from a 50+ win team to the lottery. I think it's safe to say that Stephon Marbury is a cancer.
