I thought of making a thread about this after reading [url="http://http"]this article[/url]. According to it, the following were the worst trades ever:



2008 - Pau Gasol to the Lakers and Kwame Brown, Javaris Crittenton, Aaron McKie, Marc Gasol's rights and future Draft picks to the Grizzlies.

2004 - Rasheed Wallace to the Pistons and Željko Rebra?a, Bob Sura, Chis Mills and a future Draft 1st round pick to the Hawks.

1998 - Dirk Nowitzki (Draft no. 6 pick) to the Mavericks and Pat Garrit to Phoenix and Robert Traylor to the Bucks.

1996 - Vlade Divac to the Hornets and Kobe Bryant (Draft no. 13 pick rights) to the Lakers.

1992 - Charles Barkley to the Suns and Jeff Hornacek, Andrew Lang and Tim Perry to the 76ers.

1980 - Joe Barry Carroll to the Warriors and Robert Parish and Kevin McHale to the Celtics.

1976 - Gail Goodrich to the Jazz and Magic Johnson (Draft no. 1 pick) to the Lakers.

1975 - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to the Lakers and Brian Winters, Elmore Smith, Junior Bridgeman and Dave Meyers to the Bucks.

1965 - Wilt Chamberlain to the 76ers and Connie Derking, Paul Neumann and Lee Shaffer to the Warriors.





Do you agree with these? Can you think of more disastrous trades?

I guess one of the worst ones (or best ones <!-- s:p -->[img]{SMILIES_PATH}/tongue.gif[/img]<!-- s:p -->) has to be Pau's.
1980 Draft - Celtics traded their 1st overall for Robert Parrish and the Warriors' 3rd pick in exchange for Joe Barry Carroll and Ricky Brown. (( that was a stupid move. ))



1968 - 76ers traded Wilt Chamberlain to Lakers for Jerry Chambers, Archie Clark, and Darrall Imhoff.]



2000- Pistons traded Grant Hill to the Magic for Ben Wallace and Chucky Atkins. Since when is Grant Hill pwnage?



2006 - Trail Blazers traded the rights to Randy Foye to the Minnesota Timberwolves for the rights to Brandon Roy. Stupid move, I'm ferom Minnesota.



2001 - Rockets traded Richard Jefferson, Jason Collins, and Brandon Armstrong to the Nets for Eddie Griffin.



That's all I got.



Ta-ta.
the pau trade was a good trade on the lakers part but dumb memphis part the lakers got a good big man and memphis got a hand full of garbage but thse other trades was good trades its rare that both teams benefit
