    So what about the other side of the trade? Alonzo didnt even show up. He was supposed to be the big name in return.

    This threads fails without a mention of the Kemp-Baker-Brandon trade. All 3 careers went down the drain shortly thereafter.

    Why ask a question when you just strike down the opinions of others and emphasized that your original answer is the only right one?

    Scottie Pippen for Olden Polynice.



    I know Pippen wasn't a big name player at that time but that still has to go down as one of the worst trades in NBA history.

    Also Charles Barkley for Jeff Hornacek, Tim Perry and Andrew Lang

    How could anyone forget the infamous Kareem Abdul-Jabbar trade to the Lakers?

    How bout Robert Traylor for Dirk? Can you imagine what Milwaukee would had been like back then? Cassell, Ray Allen, Glenn Robinson, Dirk.

    Kidd has been fine in Dallas and as a Net fan, I've not been happy with Harris at all. And it's not like Devin's that young. Guy is injury prone and heading to his latter 20s with a game predicated on speed and not mentality.

    The Shaq Trade From The Lakers To Those 2 Other teams.

    Caron Butler, Lamar Odom, Brian Grant

    At the time Butler wasnt that GREAT, Lamar was a So-So ..

    Have no comments for grant.

    as a laker fan i see nothing wrong with that trade....

    the thread is not about lopsided trades it's about trades that sent big time players to other teams and the player fizzled out...

    at least i think that's what the thread is about

    Shaquille O'Neal for Shawn Marion whiched turned into Jermaine which turned into 5 PPG on 15% vs Celtics which turned into nothing.


    Just kidding, we got LeBron for that
