I miss Danny's drafting...

So, other than the Antoine deal (which netted us Tony Allen, Delonte West and Rajon Rondo), and the trade for Ratliff's contract that was central to the KG deal, which trades were "disasters"?

the Kyrie trade was a disaster. Set the team back a fair amount.   A lot of his smaller moves were bad though smaller so hard to call a disaster.

Also, Tony Allen was the Mike James trade. Chris Mills was salary filler. The trade was for Mike James, tying that to the Toine trade is taking a lot of liberties.  Less liberties taken on connecting the Rondo trade as the future 1st Boston traded was from the Cavs acquirong Jiri Welsch, but that is still a bit of stretch since Phoenix would have taken any future 1st and would have likely preferred one that wasnt from a LeBron led Cabs team.

Chris Mills was essential to that trade, as it allowed us to take back Chucky Atkins and his salary (which was the point of the trade for Detroit).

And yet, Chris Mills was the one that was used.
