Everyone but the Nets management thought the trade they made for KG/Pierce was stupid and that it would bite them in the arse. They gave away their future trying to buy a title when Prokhorov became the owner. This year's pick was "swapped" so that Brooklyn could circumvent the rule that forbids teams from trading out of the first round in consecutive years.


quote:


BROOKLYN, NY – The Brooklyn Nets have acquired Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Jason Terry and D.J. White from the Boston Celtics in exchange for Gerald Wallace, Kris Humphries, MarShon Brooks, Kris Joseph, Keith Bogans and three first round draft picks (2014, 2016 and 2018), as well as the right to swap first round picks in 2017, Nets General Manager Billy King has announced.

That trade makes the Expos trading away their prospects for Bartolo Colon look like a fair deal.

Worst trade in NBA history
