Right cuz when they drafted him at 51 they were really thinking they got a sharpshooter who will play 16+ years in the NBA n be an AllStar... by that logic only the entire NBA would let a sharpshooer fall to 51...
That’s not the trade though 🤦♂️ it was an agreement to not draft Bill Russell. Which they wasn’t going to in the first place and the show generates revenue.
Kyle Korver went from traded for a copy machine to being the best three point shooter on a 50 win team to being LeBrons scapegoat, sounds like it came from a Will Farel movie
February 7, 1979: Sixers trade Harvey Catchings and Ralph Simpson to the Nets for Eric Money and Al Skinner - on the surface, nothing out of the ordinary...except that, with a protest-granted replay of most the second half of a Sixers-Nets game from November taking place in March, three of the players involved (all but Skinner) ended up appearing in the game for both teams.
Great video with full of unpopular information! Great job, always enjoyable to watch. Alsooo the great background music is there as nearly always! Thanks Andy!
Andy -- I'm Irv Levin's cousin, and while you got the basics of the story correct, two notes: 1) The photo is not of Irv Levin. and 2) as part of the deal between Irv and John Brown, several players were swapped as well, including the rights to a guy by the name of Larry Bird.
Actually it was the Celtics other #1 pick that year Freeman Williams. The Celtics main haul though was Tiny Archibald who revived his career in Boston.
You might want to consider Wilt to the 76ers for a couple of journeymen and an All-Star... who had already been retired for a year and a half, albeit with a lot of tread still left on his tires. In the event, Lee Shaffer declined to come back.Plus, I suspect, the league threw in a top first round draft choice to encourage the deal -- the Warriors and the Knicks (who also needed help) split the first four picks the next year.
A weird trade that I remember was the Rudy Gay trade from the Raptors to the Kings. One of those trades that looked like the Raps were going to tank and lots of rumors of trading away Lowry and starting a rebuild. They turned the ship around and the Raptors are having their best run in franchise history. They are closer than they've ever been to a title. #inmasaiwetrust
No he wasn't, he resigned from the Knicks to go to the Heat. The Knicks then accused the Heat of tampering so the Heat gave the Knicks a first round pick .
Van Gundy is not the first coach traded. In 1987 the Bucks traded coach Don Nelson to GSW in exchange for a 2nd round pick, wich ended being center Andrew Lang.
Manu was picked lower - but he was a VERY RARE exception to the "not much out of the second round" rule of thumb. Ed Macauley had stated he wanted to move for family reasons, and would not have played for Boston the following year anyway.
Well, in Poland we had a case when a footballer (soccer player for US guys) was sold to another team for 30 balls 😁 He later became a pretty good striker and played for the national team a couple times
Here's another one to consider: Bob Cousy from Boston to Cincinnati in 1969. Cousy had been retired as a player since the 1962-63 season and was in his first season as the coach of the Royals. The team wasn't playing well, and Cousy decided that what they needed was for him to become a player-coach at 41. Unfortunately for the Cous, the Celtics still owned his rights as a player and demanded compensation and the Royals sent Bill Dinwiddie (who was hurt) to the Celtics. Dinwiddie did play the next season, averaging 4.9 points in 61 games. Cousy, on the other hand, played in 7 games and scored a total of 5 points before re-retiring for good. The Celtics also ended up getting Quinn Buckner from Milwaukee when Dave Cowens came out of retirement.
Back in those days, the Celtics used to play a home game or two at the Hartford Civic Center each season. They didn’t own the Boston Garden. Also, I think Danny Ainge was from Utah, so there was some connection.
Seth Kasso He’s probably just a big time basketball stat nut. That’s what I do in my down time. Just skim basketball reference, going through drafts, trades, no name players. I’m starting to run out of material lol.
1950's St. Louis Hawks coach: "I don't want Russell on our team. He's a negro!" >Celtics become a NBA dynasty thanks to Russell >Majority of the current NBA players are black men >Hawks eventually relocated to Atlanta, a city with a large black population Karma straight up whooped that coach's ass with a open hand lol
Wow. Trading away Kyle Korver for a copy machine seems pretty much hilarious but yes he did once insist that the copy machine didn't worked while he's still is. 🤣
The Boston Celtics switching to a different city and becoming a new franchise has to be one most messed up trades to even think about cause why would you wanna trade a team that won so many championships and so many stars and hall of famers...You realize you were setting yourself for execution because the people in Boston would've been outraged and rioting on streets if you did something crazy like that
Founded in 1970 as Braves, they moved to SD in 1978 (changing their name into Clippers) and in LA in 1985.........As a reult, we Lakers are the 1st LA team (moved from Minneapolis in 1960)
Kyle Korver recently said in an interview that "I heard the copy machine doesn't work anymore, but I still do" LMFAO
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Kyle Kroger’s a creighton boi

Let’s not forget the fact that all of our 2K my players got traded for sandwiches
Cayden Murdock What? Do you mean ?
Yusuf Ahmed when you play in the g league but get traded for some sandwiches to the mad ants
Cayden Murdock Don’t forget that Point Guard too.
Yup 😂😂
1 year supply of best sandwich in LA
Only the Nets would trade a quality sharpshooter for a damn copy machine
Tyler Coleman no one expected that he would be good DUMBASS KID
Dumbass kid? I'm fucking 20 years old. Oh and the team you root for in football is trash too so sit down
Well, they did trade the draft pick that turned into Damian Lillard. So I guess you're right.
Right cuz when they drafted him at 51 they were really thinking they got a sharpshooter who will play 16+ years in the NBA n be an AllStar... by that logic only the entire NBA would let a sharpshooer fall to 51...
SKOL Highlights Official bruh wtf, that’s the whole point of scouting 😂😂😂 idiot
I love these trade videos
Ik the Kyle Korver for Copy Machine will be on here 😂😂😂
A player for some office equipment with leftovers money. The most mediocre deal in NBA history.

I’d trade Christiano felicio for a copy machine any day

Facts😂😂
The woes of being a Bulls fan
I'd trade him for a broken one. The Bulls would still win the trade.
Christiano Felicia is underrated and will become the next Greek freak
John Spoelstra was an absolute marketing genius. His expertise goes far beyond basketball and there are really interesting stories about him
Seth Kasso he is my basketball coach
@@peterwellnitz4220 Someone has no proof?
Without him there will be no Indiana again or could go to the other city until he found some buyer.
(Trades himself to Indiana)
STONKS
Dude trades himself and then goes back almost immediately, lmao.
Imagine trading bill Russell to see one show from the ice capades 💀
Hilarious in retrospect!
In those days, the NBA wasn't that big. There were like 8 teams and all the games weren't even televised.
White people lmao!!!!
Rochester didn't have the money to pay Russell
That’s not the trade though 🤦♂️ it was an agreement to not draft Bill Russell. Which they wasn’t going to in the first place and the show generates revenue.

Jackie moon
Gary Turbo
Do you mean 60 wins?
Gary Turbo bruh, at the age of 36 Kyle Korver was still the 3-4 option on a team in the finals mainly because the number 1 was lebron

The Korver trade was a huge L for Nets.
Edit: Until now the Nets have no draft picks.. You know the reason

Didn’t the Bucks trade cash to the nets for Jason Kidd as head coach?

😅
10:36 pause here and that’s the full list
Riley was TRADED from Knicks to Heat for pucks as well
No he wasn't, he resigned from the Knicks to go to the Heat. The Knicks then accused the Heat of tampering so the Heat gave the Knicks a first round pick .
Royals traded 10 time all-pro Oscar Robertson for Flynn Robinson and 7 x All-pro Jerry Lucas for a backup forward.
Boston was more Black friendly than St Louis back in that time?
I know rite well dey are southern folk!!!
Sir TrixxxAlot
New England vs. The South
The South is always the worst when it comes to racism
Yes, but not by much though.
It wasn’t that much but you couldn’t have slaves in the north
Saint Louis isnt even in the south
Van Gundy is not the first coach traded. In 1987 the Bucks traded coach Don Nelson to GSW in exchange for a 2nd round pick, wich ended being center Andrew Lang.
I had to rewatch #6 because the ball movement was so good.
That Celtics/Clippers story was crazy
I know the whole Celtics-Braves/Clippers depended on the 1976 NBA-ABA merger
We need more content like this on RUclips
Manu was picked lower - but he was a VERY RARE exception to the "not much out of the second round" rule of thumb.
Ed Macauley had stated he wanted to move for family reasons, and would not have played for Boston the following year anyway.
Trading the Celtics for the Braves has to be the worst trade in sports history..
Dude REALLY wanted to be under the California sun though lol!!
I would trade Lonzo Ball's jumpshot for a copy machine
Ben Simmons jumpshot?
You would probably only get a used pencil with a missing eraser and srap paper with stuff already written on it, in return
Don't forget about Ben lol
Well, in Poland we had a case when a footballer (soccer player for US guys) was sold to another team for 30 balls 😁 He later became a pretty good striker and played for the national team a couple times
One of the best 3 point shooter in NBA history (Korver) for a copy machine. XD
I was waiting for the Garnett and Pierce for a billions of picks 🤔
I think that trade was more dumb than weird.
That trade wasn't weird, just dumb.
Trade was only dumb for the Nets , us celtics fans are still reaping the benefits till this day 😂😂😂
Yeah. Just plain dumb. Peirce should've stayed with the Celtics. At least he retired as a Celtic though.
DICK LONG they got jayson Tatum out of so is grade that trade an A
Cool video, I actually didn't know about any of these! Thanks for sharing
I’ll trade billy Donovan a bag of chips and a 1st for Brad Stevens
LMAOOOO STAN VAN GUNDY THATS HILARIOUS
Red was a genius
Kudos for gettin footage of Fred Roberts lol for real Andy went deep in his bag for this one
Like fries were at the bottom.
Number 6 must've gave the movie Celtic pride its inspiration since it was about the celtics and jazz

Awesome job as always. Great insight informações some not well known facts, keep on posting awesome videos 👌
young korver looks like troy bolton from high school musical about to flash some dance moves 😆😆
Do more trade videos. I find them to be absolutely fascinating and very enjoyable.

The Cavs should trade someone for a calculator because the coach seems to not understand math.
"we've seen some bad trades" the whole minnesota timberwolves franchise
Hey Andy how about a video on the best rookie debuts in nba history
Billy Donovan 😂
5:13 Ed Monix gets traded to the Flint Tropics for a washing machine... now that doesn't sound so farfetched.
Havent watched yet, but i bet the korver copy machine trade is in this
I remember a bad Cavs trade, Ron Harper for Danny Ferry.😄
Wtf were Cleveland thinkin
The cavs have possibly the worst front office of all time
Fred Roberts..."The Original Brow"!!
Kevin McHale called him "Psycho"
The knick trade pat Riley to the Knicks and Jeff van gundy to the rockets for picks
Where’d Danny ainge from the jays to the Celtics?
Korver for a copy machine... hahaha
In Semi-pro (2008) i think Woody Harrelson's character was traded for a washing mashine :D :D

Van Gundy and rivers werent the only head coaches to be traded... Jason Kidd was traded from brooklyn to Milwaukee as a coach if I remember correctly
Great NBA history lesson.Good job.
Wow. Trading away Kyle Korver for a copy machine seems pretty much hilarious but yes he did once insist that the copy machine didn't worked while he's still is. 🤣

Fred Roberts was the original “Brow”
Trading a Coach is absolutely ridiculous.

Bill Russell would have changed the fortunes of the hawks franchise in St. Louis and I believe they wouldn’t have ever moved to Atlanta

Jazz trading Dominique Wilkins changed NBA History.
Not the first time but the point guard from Indiana’s name is pronounced Don Boozy (like a person who’s had too much to drink) not Bus.
