The Lakers could only get Demar through a sign and trade plus Demar says he would have taken a discount but he's making 26 million this season, how big of a discount was he really willing to take? Because the Lakers only could have offered the MLE or a vet minimum deal which he obviously wasn't going to accept.

Kobe and K.G. 👀👀 Man, that woulda been a magnificent duo

Just wanna make a quick note. It wasn’t KCP and Kuzma, it was Kuzma and montrezz 2. They didn’t get derozen because it HAD to be a sign and trade and the spurs weren’t going to do that.

another note about the derozan trade, the bulls gm flew to la to talk to derozan and convinced him to join as well

The warriors really almost traded steph and klay multiple times. Thank god that didn't happen.

7:07 This is why I can hardly hate the decision of great, deserving players requesting trades because teams indeed treat players as mere pieces. I'm pretty sure Warriors are more than enamored with Curry and Thompson now but lmao they were really willing to trade the two back then huh. Fk hindsight, the point of them being treated as mere compensation pieces still stands.

Boston Celtics for Allen Iverson but had already traded the pick

The intensity of Kobe and Garrett on the floor and in the locker room, OMG.

GSW could have acquired Kevin Garnett. Problem 1 was that the owner Chris Cohen rejected the trade. Problem 2 was that GSW would have been too good for the 2009 Draft. Another team would have drafted Stephen Curry .

The 2010-11 Bulls could have had LeBron/Wade/Bosh in Chicago w/ MVP Rose & Noah but they never traded away Luol Deng(12mil) & Signed Carlos Boozer/Ronnie Brewer(23mil). They would have had 47Mil in cap space, LBJ/Wade/Bosh signed for a combined 45mil in Miami that 2010 off-season.

There's also the Tim Duncan to Orlando signing which fell through because the Magic wouldn't allow his wife to fly with the team, McGrady /Hill /Duncan would've been the original big 3

As a New Orleans sports fan, this is so painful.

If Toronto got Steve Nash , and Dirk as a hometown Canadian Steve's popularity would have exploded selling seats.

As a warriors fan I’m glad we didn’t trade curry for bogut or curry and Thompson for cp3

Should’ve included the pacers trading kawhi for George hill

Okay. I am noticing either mistakes or outright lies extremely early in this video. The bucks wanted steph curry, but Jerry west refused to move him and jettisoned Montara Ellis

The 2002 toronto-dallas trade made me wonder what was going on inside the minds of BOTH sides

In 1983. Portland had a deal trading their no 2 pick for Clyde Drexler and the 2nd round pick for Ralph Sampson. Rockets could have had Hakeem, Jordan and Drexler

this list was really good, still stuck on them KG/Kobe and Giannis/Curry duos 🤦‍♂ Christ aint no telling what Curry/Klay woulda been under a different coach/system, i honestly dont believe it woulda led to a dynasty, not even together in NO

Clippers could be on here multiple times with the Paul George for SGA trade too

4:48 the rare Ben Simmons making a three.

Austin Sweatt "thr" is not a word.

Bruhh… imagine Giannis and Curry on the same team 😰😰😰😰💀💀💀🙂🙂🙂😤😤😤

Imagine how this year's DeRozan would have been playing with LBJ.... With Buddy hield on the perimeter nonetheless. With James orchestrating things the way he does..... Come on man.. that's at least 10 more wins by default

Oh man to see Curry and Giannis play together

Should be 2002 for Nash, Dirk for Carter

I'm a lifelong Mavs fan in Dallas. That Dirk/Carter deal is total bullshit. There's ZERO chance Don Nelson would've dealt Dirk. I remember the actual discussion for Carter in 2004 being centered on future all star Josh Howard and Marquis Daniels and picks.

Watching and hearing this channels content is so stressful! Damn!!

2019 sixers lost to Toronto in the eastern conference semis not the ecf

7:50 2012 Nash was a first time all star. Think you made a mistake bro

As a sixers fan I always think of how terrible of a decision it was

There's absolutely no way that the bucks offered that and the Cavs took the Celtics deal instead.

Jimmy and JoJo and especially LeBron and Amare never happening is just so sad for me...

4:47 cant believe they put ben hitting a 3 in his highlights.

Haven't finished the whole video yet but I wish this was a video about the exact opposite. Trading DD for Kawaii to win our much deserved chip. Still to this day being doubted by Americans who simply didn't pay attention at the second place eastern conference team in the raps that dominated in the late 2010s with 2019 finally getting what they deserved;) 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦

Now looking back at the warriors offer for cp3 now he’s on their team😂

I think the deal was Kuz and Montrezl for Buddy.

LeGM back at it again

I was like wait 2012...Vince Carter ain't no way

Kyle Lowry was going to be sent to the Knicks for Metta World Peace, Iman Shumpert and a future first-round pick but James Dolan did not trust Masai Ujiri after a couple of shortchanged trades with him.

The Cavs-Bucks trade is worse considering the Bucks supposedly offered Giannis.

As a Hornets/Pelicans fan I’m hurt 😢

The thing with something like this is that it's not guaranteed a player would end up they way they did now on a different team or with a different route. I mean which coach in their right minds at the time would allow curry shot with freedom like that. It's because they ended up the way they are we can witness them like this. Not saying the player wouldn't have had the same career but it's not guaranteed

As a raptors fan, the Vince carter one makes me mad

That "no sneyk KD" rofl

This is what I found. . former Raptors GM Glen Grunwald denied a Mavericks trade offer that would have sent Steve Nash and Dirk Nowitzki to the Toronto Raptors for Vince Carter and Antonio Davis. I know you were lying bro!

No way you said 2012 3 times 😭😭

0:06 this is 2018 season right? Why the hell it looks like from 08

Fire

Cavs would’ve been crazy w middleton

Derozan was all the lakers needed now they sittin here with westbrick, Anthony glass Davis and LeOldHead James

Lakers had chemistry yes but also a lot of missed games..

Thank God KG didn't go to LA

Kevin Garnett was traded to the Boston Celtics for an entire team plus a sixth man and another dude coming off the bench. Seven players if you include the two draft picks. If you don't include the draft picks he was still traded for five players which is an entire team. Not a very good team but a team nonetheless.

Rejecting Curry is the worst decision ever I think for NBA teams history .... Looking back at this I'm so glad that warriors have to trust and keep Curry, this is the best move ever for GSW team and fans....

Giannis and Curry that would have been really nice

As a raps fan that could have been trade hurts

LETS GO RAPS!! DONT LET THESE AMERICANS SECOND DOUBT YOU

I hate it when people spread misinformation about the Chris Paul Lakers trade

pls fix the 30 fps thing. it makes it dificult to watch

The CP3 and Kobe mesh up didn't happen bcuz Paul actually is one of the people who is a part of the league union n he always give the higher up difficult time.. Think about the calls that would have gave Pheonix the win.. Paul also use to speak up about what goes on in the world, which led to James to start speaking up.. That became another thing that lead to them disliking him bcuz he speak his mind.. To me that is the real REASON HE DIDN'T GET TO PLAY WITH KOBE..

I don't think Kobe and Garnett would've worked out because of their personalities

Bruh the warriors let a trio of Giannis klay and Steph not happen by letting Giannis go away like bruh imagine the league with three of Giannis curry klay and KD

It’s not entirety Russ’s fault

Bogut was actually offered for curry by the bucks

Steph teaming with Giannis would murder the league

Vlade for Kobe 😂😂😂 or Tractor Traylor for Dirk.

The Milwaukee Bucks did not want Stephen Curry due to his history with past injures and instead took the more “healthier” Ellis. Side Note: Imagine if Curry became a role player and never revolutionized basketball?

Calling KD a snake for what???

People forget how dominant Bynam and Odam were for a brief minute... That's so Kobe tho... Putting himself above the team. It's why Kobe would never come close to a top 10 player in my book.

Would’ve been Kobe kg and gasol thanks 5 titles

2012?

I still disagree that the Lakers' offer for CP3 was better than the Clippers' offer. The Lakers offered basically mediocrity. Those players in New Orleans might have allowed the team to win just enough games to be out of the running for the top 3 picks while not being a playoff contender either. Meanwhile, the trade they actually got from the Clippers gave them 23-year old Eric Gordon, who did have some injury concerns, but was still coming off a season where he averaged 22 ppg. It also gave them the opportunity to tank, ultimately landing Anthony Davis. The way they handled things after that obviously wasted the talent they had, but it was still a situation that offered better potential than what the Lakers were offering. For a team that is rebuilding, youth, potential and a full reset that may result in picking high in the draft is always better than mediocrity.

As much as I indeed agree with the mistakes made by the lakers, Anthony Davis and Lebron James were out an awful lot this season, so in my eyes you can’t really blame Russel Westbrook fully.

The Cavs trade to Milwaukee wouldn’t make sense because Cavs play in the same division and wouldn’t wanna face Kyrie and Gianis

2002, not 2012

Semis everybody keep forgetting sixers did not make the conference finals lol

2012

How does this guy slander kd in every video

The Dirk and Nash stuff was definitely not in 2012 Dirk either had his ring or was near getting it by then I was born in 97 and haven't looked it up but almost positive you have to be talking about '02 do better buddy you have quite a bit of followers make sure you're giving them the right information you gonna have some casuals looking like some donkeys out here.

the reason butler said that was bc it was common knowledge that simmons wanted harris back embiid wanted butler and they wanted simmons happy so they kept harris over butler

its lebrons fault about russ being a laker love how no one holds lebron accountable for his gm moves

Shuii

Bucks could have had giannis and curry?....

I think people need to let go of the MVP BS. How many those mvp players won rings? Just like Nikola Jokić how many rings did he win? NONE and he won the mvp twice in a row. What about Steve Nash how many rings did he win? None. Let go of that MVP crap it really doesn't matter.

I'm from future. The Lakers has made the playoffs

bro..download videos that has more fps, it hurts to watch these low fps clips

James harden trade

Early Noti Gang

here early

Ain't fin'na care if anybody hates on this comment so bitch @ me if y'all wanna. Hearing KG and Kobe could've been a duo and that the former opted to bail for one reason or another which I could care less about pisses me off. 'Cause if them 2 would've legit gotten a 3-peat and Kobe got 6 chips instead of 5 I'd be more willing to accept Kobe as the GOAT over Bron than MJ.

yooooooooooooooooo

First

Fourth

Lol bucks didn’t say no to Steph you literally don’t know what you are talking about. Bucks couldnt take the trade because warriors medical staff proved Steph untradable because of his injuries and they HAD to accept Ellis. Just stop dude

I don't know why you said Ben Simmons 'became a terrible player' he hasn't played for the nets yet and even after Jimmy went to Miami he didn't magical become worse he just didn't get better
