Ted Stepien dropped several softballs off the Terminal Tower in 1980 or '81. One of them hit a woman and broke her forearm. He had to pay her $35,000 or somewhere in that neighborhood.
Then the time in like '75? when they dropped the baseball off the observation deck close to the top of the Terminal Tower and was going to have Ray Fosse catch the damn thing.![]()

The RJ trade itself wasn't really that bad...it's the re-signing of RJ that is unforgivable.
From a what you gave up/what you got standpoint, the Scola trade wins in a landslide.
Fosse let his bounce twice before he caught it.![]()
Jackie Butler and Luis Scola for Greek got
Yeah , I blocked that one out of my mind it was so bad. That's easily the worst trade in franchise history.![]()
Utah Jazz trade Dominique Wilkins to ATL for some dudes
Atlanta Hawks trade Dominique Wilkins during what was arguably their best season, for playoff got Manning
Oh and yeah, on draft day:

Scola for cap space to sign Bonner for the same money...![]()
Yes, Scola by far for the Spurs. If the Spurs had kept Scola, they could easily have at least made the Finals in '08 and wouldn't have had to panic-trade for RJ. Damn snowball effect...
...yep, Scola was a perfect fit for the Spurs...in the Manu template.
Mavs donīt win without Kidd, idiot!
^You're fortunate Kidd beat the out of his wife. Otherwise, he'd still be here, and you'd be SOL.

What did Kidd do that was so important that Harris couldn't have done? It is still a fact this team initially declined drastically after the trade for Kidd. It took a few trades to bring them back. Some stubborn sob's can't seem to grasp that concept. Cuban built a great team but that one trade was the worst I've seen. The trade for Walker was pretty bad as well.
So Harris got to play with Chandler, Marion, Stevenson, and Haywood?
You're being specious & apologetic, Thou. You won. Harris had his chance, many chances. I too was on his side. On Howard's side. On "that" side. They failed, chronologically. That's life.
You'd better grow the up and act like somebody. It's been over 5 months and your people still refuse to be Champion....at least here on these Boards. Perhaps somewhere else, some other Board you're representive. But, not here. Here, you're a gd disgrace.
Lock down Kobe Bryant
Bend over. I'll in' lock down.
You act like Kidd was a key part of our success. We failed with Kidd miserably with the lineup Harris did pretty well with. That is the only way you can compare the 2. How they did with similar talent. Thus, that trade didn't do what we wanted. But the Chandler trade was brilliant as well as Marion, Stevenson, and Butler. I don't get the controversy here. Kidd sucked with the same lineup Harris had to work with. I'm not 100% sure we ring with Harris but it looks good on paper.
If you still think the Kidd trade was bad for Dallas, you are all kinds of re ed. Idk what else to really say, no one thinks that was a bad trade. Devin Harris and the 50 games he plays every year had one great season in 2009 and has been irrelevant since then.
Dallas was imploding when they brought Kidd in, it's not like he ed up a great thing.
