What is your teams worst move ever? I think ours (the Bulls) was trading Elton Brand for Tyson Chandler. They kind of still bothers me to this day.

For the Pacers it would be Peja for Artest. Peja didn't do squat for us and ran away to the Hornets after sitting out of our postseason. I definetley think we could've gotten more for Artest. Like for example - Rashard Lewis.Another bad trade was Brad Miller for Scott Pollard.
Nope...worst trade ever was:2003 1st rnd Vancouvor Grizzlies draft pick for Otis Thorpe. Turns out, that pick ended up being the 2nd overall pick in that 2003 draft. Most likely, if they(in Vancouvor) didnt trade that pick, Carmelo Anthony or Dwyane Wade would be a Memphis Grizzly paired with Gasol.
I'm just waiting for Tony to reply with some move in like 1947 that linked to a bigger deal in 1953, or some sh*t like that.

I know....MELO!!!! MELO could be wearing the Memphis Blue!!!!!! AAAAAHHH!!!!!!! GODDAMN CANADIENS!!!!!!
Suns have a history of making bad initial trades that turn into good moves later down the road.1. Traded Charles Barkley to the Rockets for Sam Cassell, Robert Horry, Mark Bryant and Chucky Brown. Sam Cassell was later traded to Dallas as part of a package deal for Jason Kidd. 2. Steve Nash was traded to Dallas for Pat Garrity Martin M??rsepp, Bubba Wells and a first-round draft pick. Not that good looking at first but the draft pick ended up becoming Shawn Marion. This also has a long road effect on landing Amare Stoudemire.3. Suns trade Pat Garrity, Danning Manning and two future first round picks for Penny Hardaway. Penny could never stay healthy and the Suns are killed by his contract. The Suns a couple years later traded Jud Buechler and Vinny Del Negro in a 3 team deal with Orlando and the Clippers for Bo Outlaw, cash and the remaining unused 1st rounder from the Penny trade which ended up being the pick that became Amare Stoudemire.4. Suns trade Jason Kidd for Stephon Marbury. Out goes Kidd and he takes the victories with him as the Suns flat out sucked the season following that deal. This enables them to land a high enough pick and they use it on Amare.5. Suns trade Marbury, Penny Hardaway & Cezary Trybanski to New York for Antonio McDyess, Howard Eisley, Charlie Ward, Maciej Lampe, Milos Vujanic and 2 future 1st rounders. Team stunk afterwards, Suns clear cap room for Steve Nash and one of the picks were used as payment for the Leandro Barbosa trade the previous year
I don't have one for Denver, so I'll give one for the Sixers.Sixers trade: Moses Malone (21 ppg, 12 rpg)Washingon trades: Jeff Ruland

Anyway I think for Cleveland it was trading away our whole team for crappy players because the owner wanted to move the Cavaliers out of Cleveland. But our fans kept showing up so thats why we still have em today.

I wish he would bring that back to Cleveland man, oh I think I would pass out. :worthy:

While technically not a trade, the Jazz signed Gail Goodrich but had to give the Lakers a first round pick, Today that deal would have been a sign-and-trade, the first round pick ended up being Magic Johnson.Here is another bad one. Orlando trading Ben Wallace and Chucky Atkins for Grant Hill. Orlando ended up as a lottery team, while the Pistons ended up as world champions.
