Coincidentally Bomb just touched on this in the KC Jones post, but DJ was thought to be in decline at the time. He probably didn't make a lot of friends in the PHX organization either. But they dealt him for nothing and the Celtics got a key piece of title teams in return. The picks turned into nobody either. This one is a pretty horrendous trade, and another reason Julius Erving said he would never make a deal with the Lakers or Celtics. It is astonishing how shrewd/sheisty they have been, even across adminstrations and management groups in some cases.
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
