Latest / Kenny For Real / The 50 WORST NBA Trades Of All Time
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You ever wonder what the worst trade in NBA history is? No,
- 0:03Speaker 1: because we know the answer. And I don't really think
- 0:05Speaker 1: about it either, because it happened just last season, almost
- 0:07Speaker 1: to the day. But Bleachiporta put together an article of
- 0:10Speaker 1: the fifty worst trades of all time, and I'm excited
- 0:14Speaker 1: to see what is on this list that is such
- 0:16Speaker 1: an unflattering picture of Luca. Bro. Whoa bro? They gout, Bro.
- 0:22Speaker 1: They got Luca looking like Baymax in this picture. Bro.
- 0:26Speaker 1: They could have picked any picture they picked. This was
- 0:30Speaker 1: specifically Nico Harrison reading his article like, yeah, it is
- 0:33Speaker 1: the worst trade level, but you understand what I meant, right,
- 0:36Speaker 1: This picture got Luca looking at grist Ricky Shay as well.
- 0:42Speaker 1: All right, so how does his work so you can
- 0:45Speaker 1: pole and rank these trades? Oh? My god, can cock it? Boom,
- 0:50Speaker 1: I got there. We can coct it. A new metric
- 0:53Speaker 1: amply called LUCA, which is short for Lost Unity and
- 0:58Speaker 1: Known Aftermath. Metric blends two elements lost unity, which measures
- 1:02Speaker 1: the difference in a five year wins over replacement player
- 1:05Speaker 1: between the assets traded away and received, and known aftermath,
- 1:09Speaker 1: which awards points for the big honors like all NBA
- 1:12Speaker 1: all start and MVP, averaging those two scores and produce
- 1:15Speaker 1: a single number meant to capture both value. Love. Okay,
- 1:19Speaker 1: context also matters. Let's let's talk about this. Let's get
- 1:22Speaker 1: this done. The first trade this video is brought you
- 1:24Speaker 1: by seeki geit. The link of the description used go KFR

- 1:46Speaker 1: Charlotte Hornets. Give me two tickets. You're gonna see the
- 1:48Speaker 1: venue the green of the doctor better the deal. I
- 1:51Speaker 1: like to sort by deal score. The best deal that
- 1:54Speaker 1: you can't get is a ten out of ten, and
- 1:55Speaker 1: we actually got a lot of them like this. Ten
- 1:57Speaker 1: out of ten, where you can say course sat for
- 1:59Speaker 1: three thousand dollars, or it's ten out of ten that
- 2:01Speaker 1: is twenty six dollars to sit in Section three, thirty two.
- 2:04Speaker 1: With just a couple more clicks, I would have been
- 2:05Speaker 1: able to have my tickets to watch my bulls. Probably
- 2:09Speaker 1: lose to the Charlotte Horne's, but it was gonna be

- 2:17Speaker 1: first time you use see geek or the thousand times
- 2:19Speaker 1: it will not matter. Thank you to see Geek again
- 2:21Speaker 1: for sponsoring this video. Fiftieth worst trade in NBA history
- 2:24Speaker 1: is Jeff Horni sack being traded to this from the
- 2:27Speaker 1: seventy six ers to the jaff Jazz. I would say
- 2:29Speaker 1: it's fifty trade to if we're not spending deep daves
- 2:31Speaker 1: on every one of them. Because some of these trades
- 2:33Speaker 1: I'm genuinely unaware of. I was born two years after this,
- 2:36Speaker 1: y'all call me unk, and this trade happened before I
- 2:38Speaker 1: was born, so like, I don't know much about it.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Let's see, I know Jeff hornisax was a one time
- 2:43Speaker 1: All Star, but he was a one time All Star
- 2:46Speaker 1: and Philly, but he also got traded a part of
- 2:52Speaker 1: the Charles Barkley trade, which I would assume is on
- 2:55Speaker 1: this list somewhere as well. Jeff Malone on the first
- 2:57Speaker 1: round pick for Jeff HORNI sax Sean Green in the
- 2:59Speaker 1: second next with the Blazers trade Jermaine O'Neil to the Pacers.
- 3:04Speaker 1: This is just another I don't know who was who
- 3:06Speaker 1: was in charge of the Pacers back then we're talking about.
- 3:08Speaker 1: This had to be what two thousand and two, I
- 3:10Speaker 1: don't even know, a year of two thousand and one
- 3:12Speaker 1: to two, maybe before that. Ninety nine is a no.
- 3:14Speaker 1: He literally says, in the time of two thousand, I'm
- 3:17Speaker 1: on a row Jermain deal. Jermaine O'Neil was actually just
- 3:21Speaker 1: really really bad in this first stop. Like I can't
- 3:24Speaker 1: even fault the Trailblazer for trading him for Dale Davis
- 3:27Speaker 1: because he averaged, yeah, he averaged four points per game,
- 3:31Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's just so happy he
- 3:33Speaker 1: ended up being what a six time All Star whatever
- 3:35Speaker 1: the hell ended up being. But like, I can't fault
- 3:37Speaker 1: the Trailblazer for being like we we all we basically
- 3:39Speaker 1: spent the lottery pick. I think he was right out
- 3:40Speaker 1: at the lottery We spent a right out at the
- 3:43Speaker 1: lottery pick. On this guy. He hasn't been good in
- 3:45Speaker 1: four years, He's averaged four points in four years. Will
- 3:48Speaker 1: trade him away and it's just so happy. He gets
- 3:50Speaker 1: to Indiana and the dude turned into one of the
- 3:52Speaker 1: best players in the conference in like two years. It's
- 3:54Speaker 1: a crazy win for the Pacers. Obviously, I mean overall
- 3:58Speaker 1: bad trade for the Blazers, but I can't even fault
- 3:59Speaker 1: there their methodology of it all. The Hornets trade Baron
- 4:03Speaker 1: Davis at the Golden State Wars for Speed Claxon and
- 4:05Speaker 1: Dale Davis. Is here. Dal Davis been a part of
- 4:07Speaker 1: two of the worst trads in NBA history. He's on
- 4:10Speaker 1: the opposite end of the worst trade where he's he's
- 4:12Speaker 1: looked at as the bad asset. That's crazy. Obviously, we
- 4:15Speaker 1: know Bean Davis went on to do some pretty cool
- 4:17Speaker 1: things with the Golden State Warriors, made the Warriors cool
- 4:19Speaker 1: for at least a season or two. Speedy Claxon and
- 4:23Speaker 1: Dale Davis is a ridiculous return. Rashie Wallace of the
- 4:27Speaker 1: Pissons and Oh four. Obviously this helped the Pissons win
- 4:29Speaker 1: that championship. This trade has always been weird to me.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Mike James is in at Chris Chris Mills names that
- 4:35Speaker 1: I can't pronounce. Bob Saw a first round pick that
- 4:38Speaker 1: did turn it to Josh Smith, though I don't know
- 4:41Speaker 1: my people of Rashie Wallace played one game with the Hawks,
- 4:48Speaker 1: he got I forget what TV was there before, but
- 4:50Speaker 1: he got traded to the Hawks. He played one game,
- 4:52Speaker 1: dropped a dub, and then got traded like a day later.
- 4:55Speaker 1: So you got any asset of Rashie Wallace, you traded
- 4:58Speaker 1: him away and you you ended up with Josh Smith.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Chuckieyak is a part of a Lindsay Hunter and in
- 5:02Speaker 1: the first round pick that they're not even telling us
- 5:04Speaker 1: what this pick turned into, so he must have been trash.
- 5:08Speaker 1: It's one of the weird things where a person played
- 5:10Speaker 1: for three teams in one season. I think Dennis Shroder
- 5:13Speaker 1: just did this last year with Brooklyn Golden State and
- 5:15Speaker 1: then Detroit. Rashid Wallace did that and then eventually won
- 5:19Speaker 1: a championship. He was a two time All Star at
- 5:21Speaker 1: this point, by the way, too, and they basically traded
- 5:23Speaker 1: him away for nothing. Next, the Wizards trade Chris Webber
- 5:29Speaker 1: to the Kings Mitch Richmond. Mitch Richmond had to be
- 5:33Speaker 1: like thirty two years old at this point, So I
- 5:36Speaker 1: think it. Zach Loda says it, and it's more prevalent
- 5:39Speaker 1: now than anytime. We're like when you're trading away a
- 5:41Speaker 1: younger player and you're getting ten years older or eight
- 5:45Speaker 1: years older, a lot of the times those straits just
- 5:46Speaker 1: don't work out. In this case, obviously that was the
- 5:48Speaker 1: thing for Chris Webber. Chris Webber, he was described as
- 5:52Speaker 1: a problem child when call him. Ohso they're basically saying
- 5:55Speaker 1: that he got traded because of his off court stuff.
- 5:58Speaker 1: But they could have got a better pack. See, I
- 6:00Speaker 1: think OLDI story might have been in the league like
- 6:01Speaker 1: a year after this, because this is in ninety eight,
- 6:04Speaker 1: so OLDI Stork probably played a season with him. If
- 6:08Speaker 1: that he probably this is probably like a trade headline thing.
- 6:10Speaker 1: He played half the season and he was gone. So
- 6:12Speaker 1: you basically traded Chris Webber for two to three years
- 6:14Speaker 1: of Mits Richmond obviously al trade. And so I'm gonna
- 6:18Speaker 1: talk about the Lake because I'm assuming that the Charles
- 6:20Speaker 1: Barkley traders here, I'm assuming that the Dennis Robin traders here.
- 6:23Speaker 1: But back in the day, and I'm talking about like eighties,
- 6:26Speaker 1: nineties trades were so awful. I actually did a video
- 6:29Speaker 1: on a channel named Hen of Hoops, which is towne
- 6:33Speaker 1: I always want to bring back, but I never even
- 6:35Speaker 1: know to talk about. Well. I kind of looked at
- 6:37Speaker 1: some of the biggest trades of the nineties and like
- 6:39Speaker 1: showcase that they all sucked. Nowadays, you like Michael Bridges
- 6:43Speaker 1: got four first round picks. The stars were getting traded
- 6:46Speaker 1: for just players and that's crazy to me. Anyway, the
- 6:51Speaker 1: Raptors trade for Hede Turculu. I don't remember much about
- 6:53Speaker 1: the trade. This two thousand nine, so he D Turculu,
- 6:54Speaker 1: Devin George, Antoine Wright, Sean Marion went to the Mavericks. Obviously,
- 7:00Speaker 1: they went on to win the championship two years after this.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Chris Humphries, Nathan I don't know this name at all,
- 7:05Speaker 1: Greg Buckner, the Grease has got Jerry Stackhouse in the
- 7:08Speaker 1: second and then I don't even oh so heatl was coming.
- 7:12Speaker 1: I gotta read this because I don't remember this trade
- 7:14Speaker 1: at all. So the Toronto Raptors going for Heel Turculu
- 7:16Speaker 1: made since at the time he was coming off a
- 7:18Speaker 1: run to NBA Finals with your Lindo Magic. It looked
- 7:20Speaker 1: like one of the league's better point forwards, but he
- 7:24Speaker 1: was also entering his age thirty season and started to
- 7:27Speaker 1: decline a bit athletically. Turculu's production plummeted during the long
- 7:31Speaker 1: season in Toronto, and though the Raptors didn't give up
- 7:35Speaker 1: a ton beyond the post prime Sean Marion, the deal okay,
- 7:39Speaker 1: because that's what made me like, why is this trade?
- 7:41Speaker 1: Here's forty five, so it doesn't matter at the end
- 7:43Speaker 1: of the day. It's pretty low on the list, but like,
- 7:45Speaker 1: they didn't really give up anything, so I'm like, how
- 7:47Speaker 1: is his worse than Chris Weber getting traded away which
- 7:50Speaker 1: turned into an OLIBA player, you know anyway, but they
- 7:52Speaker 1: do give you some like a ranked fifty third in
- 7:54Speaker 1: Luca and all. They also had a fan vote next one.
- 7:58Speaker 1: Dang hey, this is nuts because this trade just happened,
- 8:01Speaker 1: Like this trade just happened modern trades being in here
- 8:05Speaker 1: after a season and a half is nuts. But I
- 8:07Speaker 1: can't say they're wrong. You know, the Pelicans gave up
- 8:13Speaker 1: Dyce and Daniels and two first round picks. That's what
- 8:16Speaker 1: a boy down to e J. Ladeo. I don't know
- 8:18Speaker 1: what the hell J Dill is now. Larry ns the team.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Coady Zeller's not on the team, but we just watched
- 8:23Speaker 1: John Tay Murray and Trey Young just not be good together.
- 8:25Speaker 1: And they was like, you know what, Pelicans said, we
- 8:27Speaker 1: gonna get him too, first round picks for they fired
- 8:29Speaker 1: the guy that made this trade and they brought in
- 8:32Speaker 1: Joe Dumars, who also made I wonder if that trade
- 8:34Speaker 1: is here the Dear Queen. If the Dear Queen trade
- 8:37Speaker 1: is here already, that is nuts. But I can't say
- 8:38Speaker 1: we'll be wrong. But okay, next Kyrie irving to this
- 8:42Speaker 1: this sixers, I'm sorry to the Celtics one hundred percent
- 8:45Speaker 1: has to be here one of these picks. This pick
- 8:47Speaker 1: ended up being Colin Sexton, so it ended up being
- 8:50Speaker 1: Isaiah Thomas, who had a bad hip at this point.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Colin Sexton and j Crowder for Kyrie, which is a
- 8:54Speaker 1: finesse for the Celtics obviously didn't work out well. They
- 8:57Speaker 1: didn't go very far. He went. He went to Brooklyn
- 8:59Speaker 1: after this, Yeah, YadA, But for the Celtics basically gave
- 9:03Speaker 1: him nothing because because Isaiah Thomas was pretty much over
- 9:06Speaker 1: and I hate to say that, I got Isaiad Thomas.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Jery Hold on this jersey just came. Oh, this jerseys
- 9:11Speaker 1: came in the mail like an hour ago. Why do
- 9:14Speaker 1: I have it? Because we love it around here. Man,
- 9:16Speaker 1: I'm taking it to the office. But now his career
- 9:19Speaker 1: was basically over. Unfortunate at this point. Not a bad shot.
- 9:23Speaker 1: It was an MVP candidate the season before, you know
- 9:26Speaker 1: what I mean. But his hips were so bad and
- 9:28Speaker 1: obviously the end of his career the sun straded for
- 9:33Speaker 1: Kevin Durant. I'm not just surprised this one's not higher
- 9:35Speaker 1: because you gotta remember what the Sons gave up. They
- 9:39Speaker 1: gave up a Cail Bridges, right, they gave up Cam Johnson,
- 9:42Speaker 1: two really good role players in all right, four first
- 9:45Speaker 1: round picks and two swaps the treasure troll. Who the
- 9:49Speaker 1: hell is this one? Valid? Who is this? He was
- 9:54Speaker 1: drafted in twenty fifteen. It's one of them like draft
- 9:56Speaker 1: right things. Okay, never seen him. His name a part
- 9:58Speaker 1: of the k dtray. By the way, it should be
- 10:01Speaker 1: higher in my opinion. The Pacers just walked out of
- 10:04Speaker 1: there with just Sally filling three second round picks. Your
- 10:07Speaker 1: crowded went to the Bucks. But the whole treasure trove
- 10:10Speaker 1: of assets for what two seasons of Kevin Durant one
- 10:14Speaker 1: playoff series where they got they losing five or do
- 10:16Speaker 1: they get swept. They might have lost in five, lost
- 10:19Speaker 1: in four, and then you don't have your own first
- 10:22Speaker 1: round picks for the next until twenty thirty one or
- 10:25Speaker 1: something crazy like that. I think this one should be higher.
- 10:28Speaker 1: It was a field experiment, and I'm sure to Bradley
- 10:30Speaker 1: Beulch trade is here too, they just had a bunch
- 10:32Speaker 1: of those things. But forty two, I feel like this
- 10:33Speaker 1: probably is top thirty, and it has nothing to do
- 10:35Speaker 1: with Kevin necessarily, but more about the assets that you
- 10:38Speaker 1: gave up to you know what I'm saying. Next, Tim
- 10:42Speaker 1: Hardaway Junior to Miami, or sorry, Tim Hardaway Senior to Miami.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Well before my time, well not before my time. I
- 10:48Speaker 1: was lot almost alive here. Because I'm assuming this is
- 10:50Speaker 1: not after October, Bimbo Coles and Kevin Willis will skip
- 10:54Speaker 1: past this. This is something I have no recollection of
- 10:57Speaker 1: or no history of, so we move other than saying
- 11:00Speaker 1: that the warriors, he ended up being like a warrior
- 11:03Speaker 1: legend at the end of the day, so that's important.
- 11:05Speaker 1: One of the best trades in NBA history. This is
- 11:07Speaker 1: this is one hundred percent on the wrong article. Dennis
- 11:12Speaker 1: Rodmin for will Purdue. I think both teams walked out
- 11:14Speaker 1: of this pretty happy. You know, the Spurs got rid
- 11:17Speaker 1: of that hot head guy and Dennis Rodman and the
- 11:20Speaker 1: Bulls got three more championships. Will Purdue was great for
- 11:23Speaker 1: the community of San Antonio. So everybody walked out of
- 11:26Speaker 1: this trade amazing. This shouldn't be on the list. This
- 11:28Speaker 1: is actually one of the best trades on both sides
- 11:30Speaker 1: if you think about it. Shut out to the word oh,
- 11:34Speaker 1: this trade was on my video. By the way, Ray
- 11:36Speaker 1: Allen got traded away for Gary Payton, right right. Gary
- 11:42Speaker 1: Payton played thirty games with the team they trade. Listen
- 11:48Speaker 1: to this. The Bucks traded away Ray Allen, one of
- 11:54Speaker 1: the greatest players in the league at the time and
- 11:55Speaker 1: also historically one of the greatest shooters of all time.
- 11:58Speaker 1: They gave up a first round pick and Ray Allen
- 12:02Speaker 1: to get back half a season of Gary Payton and
- 12:05Speaker 1: Desmond Mason, who was a sixth man, seventh man type
- 12:07Speaker 1: of player. He was twenty seven years old. Bro, this
- 12:12Speaker 1: has to be higher. This has to be higher. This
- 12:15Speaker 1: has to be higher. They gave up a first round
- 12:19Speaker 1: pick to get rid of Ray Allen at the age
- 12:21Speaker 1: of twenty seven. That this has to be higher dog. Yeah,
- 12:26Speaker 1: that's that's the really bat trick. The Kings trade Tivers
- 12:29Speaker 1: Haliburg to the Faces. Yeah, Halliburton, Buddy Hillsi's time in
- 12:33Speaker 1: the second for Samonas. That's just what it ended up being.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Simonis has had a good career in Sacramento, obviously, but
- 12:40Speaker 1: Halliburton's led his team to the finals once, the conference
- 12:43Speaker 1: finals a different time, and made All NBA I think
- 12:45Speaker 1: twice at this point in his career. It's been an
- 12:47Speaker 1: All Star a couple different times. So yeah, I would
- 12:50Speaker 1: rather have Halliburton in that trade personally. But yeah, next,
- 12:57Speaker 1: I was about to tell a story that I probably
- 12:59Speaker 1: shouldn't tell. The Sons trade Jason Kidd to the Nets.
- 13:02Speaker 1: They get back Stefan Marberry Johnny Newman in the name
- 13:06Speaker 1: I've never heard of before. I don't remember what Stefan
- 13:10Speaker 1: Marberry ended up doing when he got to the Sun,
- 13:14Speaker 1: so let's quickly check in on that. I have no
- 13:16Speaker 1: recollection of him on the Sons completely. He did make
- 13:18Speaker 1: one All Star appearance with the Sons. He made no
- 13:20Speaker 1: All NBA. Also in that season, Avere twenty two and
- 13:22Speaker 1: a half seasons. But as we know, Jason Kidd is
- 13:24Speaker 1: one of the greatest of his position, and Stefan Marlberry
- 13:26Speaker 1: was cool for the two thousands, but he'll never make
- 13:28Speaker 1: a Hall, and Jason Kidd is a Hall. Vince Carter
- 13:32Speaker 1: traded to the Nets. Now this is I'm sure some
- 13:35Speaker 1: of these traits also have this, but this is another
- 13:37Speaker 1: one of them things where like the context has to matter.
- 13:39Speaker 1: I'm not defending this trade from the Raptors perspective by
- 13:43Speaker 1: any means, because Alonzo Morning, Aaron Williams and Eric Williams
- 13:47Speaker 1: and two first and nuts for one of your franchise legends.
- 13:51Speaker 1: But VC and their relationship had tarn us a little bit.
- 13:54Speaker 1: Oh yeah, say's right here. By the end of the
- 13:55Speaker 1: time in Toronto, the relationship between Vince Card and the
- 13:57Speaker 1: organization felt unattenable. Both sides need to move on. But
- 14:00Speaker 1: the aftermath hurt Toronto far more than it did for
- 14:03Speaker 1: Card one hundred percent. It set Toronto back so much
- 14:06Speaker 1: to have a guy, a franchise player, one of the
- 14:08Speaker 1: best in the league, to flip him and get basically nothing.
- 14:10Speaker 1: I don't know what these two first round picks turned
- 14:12Speaker 1: into that's bad. But Joey Graham, it says Yike, shout
- 14:15Speaker 1: out Joey Graham. Though, I think maybe the Nets give
- 14:18Speaker 1: up the pick that becomes Damian Lillard, whoa meddicorps Sean
- 14:22Speaker 1: Williams in a first round pick for Jiald Wallace. This
- 14:25Speaker 1: is the type of trade I want. I've been one
- 14:27Speaker 1: of the bulls to make trades like this, the Kyrie
- 14:30Speaker 1: Irvin trade, which I'm assuming is on this list as well.
- 14:32Speaker 1: The other before it was Kyrie the Baron Davis to
- 14:37Speaker 1: the Clippers for a first round pick to turn into
- 14:39Speaker 1: Kyrie Over. These type of trades matter, right, these these
- 14:43Speaker 1: pre draft trades where like you trade for this future
- 14:45Speaker 1: pick and the team don't care about it, and boom,
- 14:48Speaker 1: that pick turns into a Hall of Famer like Damian Lily.
- 14:50Speaker 1: I want everybody wants their favorite team to do something
- 14:53Speaker 1: like that. I'm sorry when they're selling. And it worked
- 14:57Speaker 1: well for the Blazers. Obviously they got one of their
- 14:59Speaker 1: friends legends in that trade. Next week got dang dang
- 15:03Speaker 1: trades back to back. The Bucks trade for Damian Lillard.
- 15:06Speaker 1: Great in theory. I don't know a single person that
- 15:09Speaker 1: when this trade happened. They was like, yeah, the Bucks
- 15:11Speaker 1: shouldn't have done that. Everybody looked at it said Bucks
- 15:13Speaker 1: did the right thing, so I can't fault them. It
- 15:15Speaker 1: obviously didn't work because of injury from Dame, obviously injury
- 15:18Speaker 1: from Giannis, and the rest of the team not really
- 15:19Speaker 1: working well together, eventually getting rid of a coach that
- 15:22Speaker 1: seemed to be okay and Asian and Griffin for a
- 15:25Speaker 1: coach that's not okay. Jew howdi DeAndre Aid and to
- 15:27Speaker 1: Miney Kamara, that's this actually, this actually is an interesting one,
- 15:32Speaker 1: a first first round pick two pick swaps. And the
- 15:34Speaker 1: reason why I says if interesting. The Sons traded away
- 15:39Speaker 1: DeAndre Aiden and too Miniy kamaraw to get back use
- 15:42Speaker 1: of Nurkids, and by the end of that use of
- 15:43Speaker 1: nurkids tenure, they was like, man, we you know what
- 15:45Speaker 1: I'm saying. And to Miny Kamara, I'm sure Sons fans
- 15:48Speaker 1: would love to have that one back. But at that point, too,
- 15:50Speaker 1: mine as you would pick fifty something, nobody knew he
- 15:52Speaker 1: was gonna be a real NBA player. But overall, who
- 15:55Speaker 1: walked out of this trade feeling good? I guess the Blazers.
- 15:58Speaker 1: They got the picks, they got the young player, They
- 16:01Speaker 1: got Drew Holliday and then traded him and then traded
- 16:04Speaker 1: back for him two years later or three years later,
- 16:07Speaker 1: and then they were able to go back to get yeah,
- 16:09Speaker 1: both of these two, to get both level like two
- 16:11Speaker 1: years later. I think that what makes us trade even worse,
- 16:14Speaker 1: and I've heard people say it before, I'm just kind
- 16:15Speaker 1: of repeating that is that the Bucks traded Drew Holiday
- 16:18Speaker 1: away thinking that they were gonna get far away from
- 16:21Speaker 1: Drew and eventually Drew how they got flipped to the
- 16:23Speaker 1: same conference, and then the Boston Celtics ultimately just looked
- 16:27Speaker 1: better than the Bucks did in their tenure. This is
- 16:30Speaker 1: one of my favorite trades in history. It is objectively
- 16:33Speaker 1: one of the worst from the Brooklyn Nets perspective, but
- 16:37Speaker 1: Daryl Moury has a lot of hits in his career.
- 16:39Speaker 1: Obviously never built the team to win the championship, but
- 16:42Speaker 1: the fact that he was able to flip Ben Simmons
- 16:44Speaker 1: and what we know about Ben Simmons now to end
- 16:46Speaker 1: up with James Harden and one of my favorite I
- 16:49Speaker 1: guess yeah, I'll end up being a favorite year of
- 16:51Speaker 1: Joelan Beet's careers with James. I think he won the
- 16:53Speaker 1: MVP that season with James, so it's a flip. Ben Simmons,
- 16:57Speaker 1: who was just out of basketball basically sue James Harden
- 17:02Speaker 1: is elite. So ended up sucking of course for the
- 17:04Speaker 1: Nets because they thought they was getting a guy Ben
- 17:05Speaker 1: Simmons and they weren't. But ultimately the seventy six ers
- 17:08Speaker 1: walk out of their abandons. Obviously, dal Morey ended up
- 17:10Speaker 1: in his relationship with James ended up not ending well.
- 17:13Speaker 1: The Bulls trail. LaMarcus all just to the trail. They
- 17:15Speaker 1: didn't really think about this being here. But yeah, objectively
- 17:17Speaker 1: an awful offul trade. LaMarcus is like a borderline Hall
- 17:21Speaker 1: of Fame guy. You can make the argument from being
- 17:22Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer and we got Tyrs Thomas, who
- 17:25Speaker 1: like was a energy guy, catch a live do this.
- 17:28Speaker 1: But like when those young Bulls teams were doing cool
- 17:30Speaker 1: stuff in two thousand and two thousand and nine, it
- 17:32Speaker 1: would have been great to have LaMarcus ali instead of
- 17:33Speaker 1: an energy guy. So yeah, bad, bad trade. Wow it
- 17:36Speaker 1: is here already. The Pelicans trade up for Derrick Queen.
- 17:40Speaker 1: They this is number thirty one, without even knowing what
- 17:43Speaker 1: that pick turned out to be. That's nuts to me.
- 17:47Speaker 1: Not nutsing like it's wrong, but nuts that a trade
- 17:50Speaker 1: that happened I don't know seven months ago, eight months
- 17:53Speaker 1: ago can be here already without even knowing what the
- 17:58Speaker 1: pick turned out to be. The Pelicans stink there, one
- 18:00Speaker 1: of the worst teams in the league, and they don't
- 18:02Speaker 1: have their own first round pick. But shout Derrick Queen,
- 18:03Speaker 1: that's my guy. Man. I know every time I talk
- 18:05Speaker 1: about this, it don't he don't love it. But I
- 18:08Speaker 1: gotta be objective here, like he's one of them on
- 18:10Speaker 1: I think Derrick Queen is one of them ones. But
- 18:11Speaker 1: that pick, man, if that pick ends up being a
- 18:13Speaker 1: J cam or I don't know, Darren, then golly, the
- 18:17Speaker 1: Rockets straight for Russell Westbrook. Yeah, I mean the thunder
- 18:20Speaker 1: walked out of here is Bandits right? You remember that
- 18:23Speaker 1: the Rockets had to reformulate their entire teams. That wait
- 18:25Speaker 1: to Nichols then to reformulate their entire team where like
- 18:28Speaker 1: Colacapela duces any other sen of duces, we need Brody
- 18:31Speaker 1: to play that five. And they gave up two first
- 18:33Speaker 1: round picks and two swaps and Chris Paul turned into
- 18:35Speaker 1: an NBA player. The next season in Oka. See so
- 18:38Speaker 1: a huge, a great trade from Sam Presci, even though
- 18:41Speaker 1: he's giving up one of their franchise goats, and obviously
- 18:43Speaker 1: eventually led them to trading for Shay because they traded
- 18:45Speaker 1: away Paul George right before this and then Boom went
- 18:47Speaker 1: in the championship in twenty twenty five. All right, none
- 18:51Speaker 1: of Russell west was trades back to back. Look at
- 18:53Speaker 1: that it happened again, Lakers trade for Russell Westbrook. Yeah.
- 18:57Speaker 1: I think that this has been beat. The dead horse
- 18:59Speaker 1: has been beat a bunch of different times. This Lakers
- 19:02Speaker 1: team had won a championship, not this season, the year
- 19:04Speaker 1: before that, and instead of running the back after they
- 19:07Speaker 1: had an injury riddle twenty twenty one, they said, you
- 19:09Speaker 1: know what, We're gonna go get Russell Westbrook. And if
- 19:11Speaker 1: you go back and look at my comments about this
- 19:13Speaker 1: trade when it happened, I loved it for the Lakers.
- 19:15Speaker 1: It made sense to me at the time. You know,
- 19:17Speaker 1: Lebron was coming off a one of his first years.
- 19:19Speaker 1: We had a bunch of injuries. Anthony Davis at that
- 19:20Speaker 1: point still had the reputation of being injured, and I
- 19:23Speaker 1: guess that reputation is back in twenty twenty five, and
- 19:25Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook was an iron man. You can throw four
- 19:28Speaker 1: other dudes out on the court around him, and they
- 19:30Speaker 1: were gonna win. And in my mind, if Lebron went
- 19:32Speaker 1: to rest or anything, Dave's gonna be injured. Russell Westbrook
- 19:34Speaker 1: comes in and boom, they still are compe to the team.
- 19:36Speaker 1: That was not the case. Kuzma ends up going to Washington.
- 19:40Speaker 1: Who was you know, a six man on that team.
- 19:42Speaker 1: CACP was such a good guy. I don't remember channel
- 19:44Speaker 1: of Huderson being in this trade. I didn't know it
- 19:46Speaker 1: being a five team. I guess next, the Epistons trade
- 19:50Speaker 1: for Alan Iverson. The Nuggets got Chauncey Billups, Antonio Wow,
- 19:54Speaker 1: I forgot Yea and y'all hit man, and yeah, showed
- 19:59Speaker 1: up to Detroit without the corn Rows gang. I gotta
- 20:01Speaker 1: look past. It's not my goat to tell I'm expecting
- 20:05Speaker 1: to be higher. Timble's trade Kevin Gardner to the Celtics.
- 20:09Speaker 1: They got back Ryan Gomes, Gerald Green, Al Jefferson, Theo, Ratliff,
- 20:12Speaker 1: Sebastia Telfair, and two first round picks. And those two
- 20:14Speaker 1: first round picks turned into Wayne Ellison and Johnny Flynn.
- 20:17Speaker 1: They were one pick away from it being Steph Curry,
- 20:19Speaker 1: and this whole idea of this trade is different. KG
- 20:21Speaker 1: goes off to Boston, wins won championship, but it's a
- 20:27Speaker 1: tough one. Next we get to the Jazz trade Dominie
- 20:32Speaker 1: Wilkins to the Hawks for John Drew and Freeman Williams.
- 20:36Speaker 1: Don't know much about this trade, obviously, we know Dominique
- 20:38Speaker 1: turned out to be an absolute legend. Then we get
- 20:40Speaker 1: Calves trade the pick that becomes James Worthy Butch Lee,
- 20:44Speaker 1: Butch Lee, but Lee. What a name? First round pick
- 20:47Speaker 1: wind w and James Worthy for Don Fordham first and
- 20:50Speaker 1: he just swapped first and the Calves and end up
- 20:52Speaker 1: working out there. Then we get the James Harden trade
- 20:55Speaker 1: to the Rockets. They got back Jeremy Lamb, Kevin Mark
- 21:00Speaker 1: and two first round picks, one of the b and
- 21:01Speaker 1: Steven Adams, so it is going to be in a
- 21:03Speaker 1: franchise legend. But James Harden obviously goes on to win. MVP,
- 21:07Speaker 1: makes a thousand all NBA teams the league and scoring
- 21:10Speaker 1: a thousand times is ends up being one of the
- 21:12Speaker 1: greatest players of our generation. And they didn't get anything
- 21:16Speaker 1: up of Steven Adams for them. We really think about it. Next. Ooh,
- 21:20Speaker 1: I hate that this is here. Markle folks, Man, Marklee folks,
- 21:24Speaker 1: what can we say about you? Man? You can kind
- 21:26Speaker 1: of punch in his picture as a young brook, I'll
- 21:28Speaker 1: tell you that. So two first round picks the Celtics got,
- 21:32Speaker 1: and they drafted Jason Tatum, which like amazing, and they
- 21:36Speaker 1: traded away at first overall picks, so they traded down
- 21:38Speaker 1: from what one to three and they got a future pick.
- 21:40Speaker 1: I don't know what the future pick turned into though,
- 21:42Speaker 1: off the top of mine, I guess it's not really
- 21:44Speaker 1: relevantcause they didn't even mention it. But yeah, this is
- 21:46Speaker 1: a miss from the seventy six ers. They thought. I mean,
- 21:48Speaker 1: I watched that college film. I thought that he was
- 21:51Speaker 1: the truth too. I thought Mark it was the truth.
- 21:53Speaker 1: And then they messed up a shop. Mos malong Is
- 21:56Speaker 1: traded to the Rockets for two first round picks. I'm
- 21:58Speaker 1: gonna miss me on that when most Malonea's are great,
- 22:00Speaker 1: But that is in seventy six. Then we got okay,
- 22:03Speaker 1: here's the other Kyrie Irving trade. Baron Davis in the
- 22:06Speaker 1: first round pick for Jamario Moon and Moe Williams. It's
- 22:10Speaker 1: just oh Williams. Also, oh, I didn't realize he went
- 22:15Speaker 1: back after you know, making an All Star Peans with
- 22:17Speaker 1: them earlier in his career. But this is like a
- 22:19Speaker 1: sale on Baron Davis. I don't remember how long Baron
- 22:21Speaker 1: Davis played for the Clippers or what he ended up
- 22:23Speaker 1: doing while he was there. Let me quickly look that up.
- 22:26Speaker 1: He played for the Clippers for two seasons. He averaged
- 22:28Speaker 1: fifteen points to fifteen points, and then they gave up
- 22:31Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving in that. I mean, they didn't know that
- 22:33Speaker 1: it was gonna be the first overall pick, but it
- 22:34Speaker 1: ended up being the first overall pick. That's all It
- 22:35Speaker 1: really matters. Number twenty here it is. We already talked
- 22:38Speaker 1: about this at nauseum. You gotta give credit to the
- 22:42Speaker 1: Wizards for being able to get off that contract ends
- 22:44Speaker 1: up being Chris Paul, who they flipped for Jordan Poole
- 22:48Speaker 1: Blao Kulabali for first round pick swaps two seconds. Jarres
- 22:52Speaker 1: Walker ends up going in this trade. I forgot about
- 22:54Speaker 1: that part as well. The fact that this trade exists
- 22:56Speaker 1: after it looked like Bradley Beal's contract was untradable and
- 22:59Speaker 1: they got swaps and young player black Hula Bali and
- 23:02Speaker 1: then yeah, that was an amazing trade from the Wizards perspective.
- 23:05Speaker 1: The Sons walked out of there as l with the l.
- 23:08Speaker 1: The Pacers tray Kawhi Leonard on Draft night. Yeah, I mean,
- 23:11Speaker 1: George Hill is a good ball player, but he ain't
- 23:13Speaker 1: no Kawhi Leonard and Damas Berton's and then some guy
- 23:16Speaker 1: who never came over. Here's the trade, the Charles Barkley
- 23:19Speaker 1: for Jeff horn Sack, Andre Andrew Lamb and Tim Perry.
- 23:25Speaker 1: Charles Barkley, Charles Barkley. Right, let's look at this real quick,
- 23:29Speaker 1: real quick, real quick, because what year did he win
- 23:31Speaker 1: his MVP? He won his MVP his first year he
- 23:34Speaker 1: got traded to Phoenix after making all of a second team,
- 23:38Speaker 1: the first team, the first he was a five to
- 23:40Speaker 1: six time All NBA player, he had finished runner up
- 23:43Speaker 1: for MVP, and then his first season on his new team,
- 23:46Speaker 1: he literally won the MVP. And what they get back
- 23:49Speaker 1: for him Jeff Horni Sack, who wasn't All Star this season.
- 23:53Speaker 1: But that's it. This should be higher. Barkley goes on
- 23:57Speaker 1: to make finals appearance with the with the Sons and
- 24:00Speaker 1: everything this should be higher, bro, one of the all
- 24:02Speaker 1: time legends got traded for a one time all star
- 24:05Speaker 1: ooh Draft day trade, Lukadancic, and they disrespect the cam
- 24:09Speaker 1: reddis he ain't eventioned his name. It is we cam
- 24:11Speaker 1: regis about in this trade, David Yeah. And then Trey
- 24:14Speaker 1: Young gets traded for CJ. McCullum. Oh and Corey Kisper.
- 24:18Speaker 1: So you traded Luka Doncic away from anyway. We all
- 24:22Speaker 1: to know this trade on Draft night was kind of nuts,
- 24:25Speaker 1: and it ended up being nuts. The Royals and that's
- 24:28Speaker 1: not even a shot of trade. It is Luca's Luca,
- 24:30Speaker 1: you feel me. The Royals trade Oscar Robertson to the
- 24:35Speaker 1: Bucks for two names that you've never heard of before.
- 24:38Speaker 1: But you know the name Oscar Robertson, number fifteen. The
- 24:42Speaker 1: garden that trade, the piers trade, the terry trade. This
- 24:46Speaker 1: is a ridiculous trade. Keith Bogans Marshaan Brooks. If you
- 24:50Speaker 1: are two K no R, you know that marshn Brooks
- 24:52Speaker 1: and two K used to be golded. Chris Humphries, Chris Joseph,
- 24:56Speaker 1: Jared Wallace. Four first round picks and one of them
- 24:59Speaker 1: ended up being Jalb. Brown. Sometimes you gotta trade away
- 25:05Speaker 1: your franchise goats man, because you can end up with
- 25:08Speaker 1: a new front one of the new franchise goats and
- 25:11Speaker 1: Jaylen Brown, that's an awful trade. Was his name? King?
- 25:14Speaker 1: Billy King? Is was that Billy King who did this trade?
- 25:16Speaker 1: Maybe I'm giving it to somebody else. The Warriors trade
- 25:18Speaker 1: Robert Parrish, uh, and oh they trade away Robert Parrish
- 25:22Speaker 1: and the pick that became Kevin McHale. Yo, that's nuts.
- 25:27Speaker 1: And they got oh Joe Barry Carroll's in this trade.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Whoa the Warriors bro, that's too like real life. That's
- 25:34Speaker 1: nuts to me. And they didn't know that trade existed.
- 25:37Speaker 1: So we learned something today. Picking up a trading at thirteen,
- 25:40Speaker 1: the Pacers trade nineteen eighty four pick. They become second
- 25:44Speaker 1: overall in the Michael Jordan's draft, but who knows, they
- 25:46Speaker 1: may not have selected MJ. But they traded away for
- 25:49Speaker 1: Tom Owens. And the Blazers got that pick and fumbled
- 25:52Speaker 1: it because they got Saying Bowie and when they could
- 25:54Speaker 1: have had missed the goat man himself right here. Next
- 25:57Speaker 1: week got the Sonics trading for trading Way, pipping for
- 26:00Speaker 1: old Uh. Poland Ice old and Poland Ice great trade. Actually,
- 26:05Speaker 1: I think both teams walked out of here with exactly Yeah,
- 26:10Speaker 1: the Bulls won some trades, but we got two trades
- 26:12Speaker 1: on this list that we didn't win. Oh, I forgot
- 26:15Speaker 1: about buying them. So the Lakers got Dwight Howra, which
- 26:17Speaker 1: at the time was like, oh d twy, I'm going
- 26:19Speaker 1: to play with Kobe, and the ended up getting nashd
- 26:21Speaker 1: that obviously didn't work out. Chris doun L Clark and
- 26:23Speaker 1: the trade buying them goes to the seventy six ers
- 26:25Speaker 1: was like, yeah, buying them's gonna be cool. Then you
- 26:26Speaker 1: start the Bowl and everything. The Magic. This is how
- 26:29Speaker 1: crazy this trade is not even that long ago. Like
- 26:33Speaker 1: VOTs is still in the league. The magic got you
- 26:37Speaker 1: think about it, The Magic walked out of here pretty good.
- 26:39Speaker 1: I know they traded D twelve away, but like Vucevich,
- 26:42Speaker 1: ended up being an All Star there eventually. Actually, they
- 26:45Speaker 1: didn't walk out. Nobody walked out of here good, except
- 26:47Speaker 1: for maybe the Nuggets who just got Iggy. What did
- 26:50Speaker 1: they give up to get Why did they get Iggy
- 26:52Speaker 1: in this trade? I don't even remember in hindsight losing it? Wait,
- 26:56Speaker 1: how did they get Iiggy in this trade. What did
- 26:58Speaker 1: the Nuggets who was on this Nugt's team out? Al Harrington,
- 27:02Speaker 1: Aaron Afly. Okay, so these guys, okay, so they end
- 27:04Speaker 1: up wading Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Next we got
- 27:07Speaker 1: Kobe getting traded on Draft Knight for Vladi Devots. Ooh,
- 27:11Speaker 1: Kobe is one of the goats, and Vladi is like, yeah,
- 27:13Speaker 1: a good successful LBA career. He's a Hall of Famer,
- 27:16Speaker 1: but he ain't know Kobe Ban Bryant. The seventy six
- 27:19Speaker 1: trade Will Chamberlain to the Lakers. They got back guys.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Archie Clark sounded like a general in World War One,
- 27:26Speaker 1: So like that's that they that was nothing. Jazz trade
- 27:29Speaker 1: pick that becomes Magic Johnson. I didn't notice, and it
- 27:33Speaker 1: was just some pick swats. Magic Johnson was a product
- 27:35Speaker 1: for another draft pick that came back to haunt the
- 27:37Speaker 1: team when they traded it. Interesting the two well, hold on,
- 27:41Speaker 1: let me read this. The two picks that the then
- 27:44Speaker 1: New Orleans Jazz, which that should be New Orleans' team
- 27:47Speaker 1: and by the way, received never played a single game
- 27:49Speaker 1: for them through the oh Man Whoo. That's number one
- 27:54Speaker 1: in the Luca rating. By the way, because Maggice Johnson
- 27:56Speaker 1: is a top ten player of all time, you traded
- 27:57Speaker 1: them away for nothing. Number seven. I thought this would
- 28:00Speaker 1: be higher. I can't wait to see what's above this one.
- 28:03Speaker 1: But it is the Shay and Paul George trade five
- 28:06Speaker 1: first round picks and to swaps. It ends up being
- 28:08Speaker 1: JDub in that trade. Yes, it's a beautiful trade from OKC.
- 28:15Speaker 1: It's a beautiful we know this trade. That's a beautiful trade.
- 28:19Speaker 1: It's number two in the fan voting. Makes sense to me.
- 28:22Speaker 1: Bill Russell getting traded for Cliff Haggins and Ed I
- 28:28Speaker 1: know both of these names though, Like these guys had
- 28:30Speaker 1: had good careers in the NBA, but they ain't know
- 28:31Speaker 1: Bill Russell. They ain't no eleven Timer. They definitely know
- 28:34Speaker 1: eleven Tim. So we get a lot of throwback trades here. Okay,
- 28:37Speaker 1: that makes sense. Well, Chamberlain got traded to the seventy
- 28:42Speaker 1: six ers in exchange for cash. Got it? Okay? What's
- 28:46Speaker 1: next on the list? Bucks trade Dirk to the Mavericks
- 28:51Speaker 1: on Draft night, they got Robert Track the trailer in
- 28:52Speaker 1: this one. My boy Pat Gary is in this trade.
- 28:55Speaker 1: I had love for Pat Gary growing up. He wasn't
- 28:58Speaker 1: really very good sees he average eleven, but he could shoot,
- 29:01Speaker 1: and I really like fours. They could shoot back there recipes.
- 29:05Speaker 1: Robert jacka trayler, but Dirk got traded on Draft night tough.
- 29:09Speaker 1: It was because of the the European players had this
- 29:11Speaker 1: type of notion about them. Nowadays European players come in
- 29:15Speaker 1: and they dominate the league. Julius Irvin got traded for
- 29:18Speaker 1: straight cash. That's sad. That's sad. That's real life saying.
- 29:22Speaker 1: I don't want to know the context. Number two is
- 29:24Speaker 1: the Bucks trade career. So when the Luca trade, have
- 29:27Speaker 1: Luca trades number one. By the way, when the Luca
- 29:29Speaker 1: trade happened, many of the historians of the NBA was like, man,
- 29:33Speaker 1: this might be worse than the Koreem I'm due Jabbar trade.
- 29:36Speaker 1: And according to the br article, it is. Wow, those
- 29:41Speaker 1: are the fifty worst trades in NBA history. Man, that
- 29:44Speaker 1: was a fun article to go through with, y'all. That
- 29:46Speaker 1: was a very fun article to go through with y'all.
- 29:49Speaker 1: I think there were some that were maybe too low
- 29:50Speaker 1: for my liking, mostly because I have the biases of
- 29:53Speaker 1: being here, like I obviously to Bill Rossell trade is
- 29:55Speaker 1: a bad trade. But I didn't know anything about that.
- 29:58Speaker 1: But yeah, man shout out to be our shout Bailey
- 30:00Speaker 1: like they had to take a thousand hours, so we
- 30:02Speaker 1: appreciate your work here. I'll see you'll next time.
