Ranking the 10 Most Lopsided NBA Trades of the Last 5 Years (Bleacher Report)

The NBA trade deadline is a stressful time for every team pondering a move, and highlighting some of the most regrettable deals of the past half-decade ...

He was the easy Rookie of the Year pick in 2018-19 and has been a fixture on the All-NBA first team since 2019-20. That notion turned out to be misguided in the end, but it was flawed from the start. Chicago gave up a ton of future capital in exchange for a chance to win in the present...and hasn't won. Throw in all the picks Houston surrendered to exchange Westbrook for Paul, and it's clear the Thunder won this trade handily. 5, is one of the most productive offensive forces in the game. The list of things that have to go right for a team to win a championship is always long. The Bulls were in win-now mode and looking for a player who could provide offensive support for Zach LaVine. In that sense, it's hard to bury the Sixers for their logic, as it's often worthwhile to gamble on upside later in the lottery. At the time of the trade, Wiggins was best known for disappointing relative to his No. But that selection lived a vagabond's life, traveling to the Los Angeles Clippers in the deal that brought Tobias Harris to Philadelphia before winding up with the Oklahoma City Thunder, yielding Tre Mann at No. The deal that sent Desmond Bane to the Memphis Grizzlies for a pair of second-rounders on the night of the 2020 NBA draft doesn't have the sheer volume of high-level assets that several other upcoming trades do, and it's not even technically complete. Or consider how much more Bane could have provided in that series and throughout the season than Aaron Nesmith, whom the Celtics have since dealt to the Indiana Pacers.

Potential NBA Trades (Around The Block)

Potential Trades for the NBA Trade Deadline · Fred VanVleet · Terry Rozier · Bogdan Bogdanovic · OG Anunoby · Kyle Lowry · John Collins · Pascal Siakam · Matisse ...

He’ll be an important piece defensively to any team that wants to make a move to get him. A name that seems to be in trade talks a lot is John Collins. He’s already been part of a championship team, and could help lead a team to another ring. The only issue with a Collins trade is what other teams would give up for him. Thybulle is an interesting player who could turn into a star — if he goes to the right team. The Heat could also try to move him to a rebuilding team willing to take his cap hit next season, as they would want to get rid of his contract. VanVleet could provide leadership to a team that lacks it, or be the missing piece for a championship contender. If the Raptors are looking to move on from Anunoby, they should look to get a decent package. The Raptors would be willing to move him, but would they feel comfortable trading him to an eastern conference team? NBA trades can be tough on organizations, and this would be one of them for Toronto. The 28-year-old is an NBA champion and seasoned vet who knows what it takes to win. [NBA](https://atbnetwork.com/nba/) is known to have one of the crazier trade deadlines in all of sports as teams are making their last moves to hopefully make them future champions.

NBA trade deadline: What are the rules about trading draft picks ... (AS English)

Some of the most byzantine rules in all of sport are the ones governing NBA player trading, but we try and help you make sense of it.

It allows a team to retain the option of swapping picks with a trade partner, and can be exercised if that pick would be advantageous. But when a team trades for draft picks, there is a limit of seven years placed on the deal. The most straightforward idea of the trade is straight up player for player, or perhaps even player for cash.
