my warriors trading VC for jamison... we would have been better... atleast VC took toronto to the playoffs... jamison is a good play and always has been... but in the first 5 years of there careers VC was sick... he would have sold seats too.

I kinda forgot about that 4-5 swap.
At least Antawn had a good career. It wasn't exactly "lopsoded" as far as the talent GS recieved.
I can't think of anybody I regret the Blazers getting rid of. We traded away big names but I was fine with all of them:
Drexler: I'm glad he got his ring and it was necessary for rebuilding. Dang near worked too in 2000.
Sheed: Head case and the Blazers were going down anyway.
Zach: Head case with 0 defense.
Jermaine: He was a whiny jerk and I wouldn't want him back to this day. Plus, the trade seamed logical at the time since we were close to a championship and Dale was better against Shaq. Though, I know many other Blazer fans will say Jermaine because talent wise this was the most unbalanced of all the trades.
Brian Grant: He had injury problems and Kemp came off a decent season. In retrospect, I would have kept Grant but at the time most approved of the trade because it was frickin Kemp.
I guess this is the worst one I can think of (which really isn't anything still): Steve Blake for Jamal McGloire. Though, we now have Blake back anyway.
Trading Webber also is a tough one given how Penny's career went and the complete waste of all the picks.
Trading McGrady for effectively nothing is yet another example.
Magic are littered with them...
Worst trades overall though have to be...
New York trading Ewing and Houston with Hakeem. Not sure if they were both traded or walked, but either way, just cough up the money for those guys, neither of the teams were anywhere near winning when they got rid of them, those two should have been 1 team guys.
The T-Wolves shouldn't have traded Sam Cassel AND a future first rounder for Marko Jaric. Even if Cassel dropped dead in the first game of the season, his salary off the books would have been a bonus over crappy Marko Jaric, not to mention the draft pick.
Ray Allen should have never been traded from the bucks...He led the team to the Eastern Conference Finals and was in his prime, but it has all worked out for the best for Ray Allen...I smell championships...

Now that you mention it, he never should have been traded from Minnesota to Milwaukee for Stephon Marbury. Allen/Garnett could have been around for the last ten years instead of the Marbury debacle.
