Gail Goodrich for Magic Johnson has to be up there, although it wasn't a trade, the NBA MADE it one!
Who or what did we trade Dominique Wilkins (or that pick) for? Can’t remember rn.
I'm pretty sure it was cash considerations.
Add Quentin Grimes to the list of mistakes the Mavs made this year

And the ability for the team to stay in Utah. Dark times back then. . .
OK so not great either, lol.

Bruh, you gonna forget John Drew and Freeman Williams? Two of the biggest junkies during the peak NBA cocaine heydays.
Could this team reach the Finals?
In the East maybe?

Cody is in the dangerous territory of getting JHS’ed. That is, not even getting his team options picked up for the third and fourth season if he continues his current level of play.
Completely different situations. What are you even talking about?
JHS was injured and was playing for a team focusing on winning now?
Cody got drafted by a team that knew he would be a project and is developing him appropriately.

So you are basically saying Cody is worse cuz we aren't trying to win now but Cody still couldn't do **** despite having more opportunities than JHS.
I'm not disagreeing with you that Cody has been bad. That wasn't the point at all.
Yeah, I dont see the Jazz waiving his 3rd year option. They will give him the full 4 years.
Cody will stay in the league a while, even if it's not with the Jazz. As for the Jazz, I think they'll give him 3 years to develop. If they don't want to extend him, they'll trade him and turn him into a "second draft" prospect, like Cam Reddish, Kevin Knox, Zach Collins, Ziaire Williams, etc.
A lot of the issue for him is really just physical development. He's started making his 3s recently, and he adds some value with his passing, defensive length and occasional drives. He just needs to get stronger and more forceful overall in order to have more of an impact.

I wonder whether he dropped in the draft cos teams don't think he could bulk up enough to play in the NBA.
Getting drafted at #10 when maybe he could have gone at #6 or #7 isn't really a big drop. I'm sure his weigh-in at the Combine didn't help him. It means you want him to gain like 20 lbs instead of 10-15 lbs.
It's crazy they figured it out so fast. When we killed them before the all star break I thought they looked like the worst defensive team I'd ever seen.
