Thought I would create a new trade thread and put all of them in one category.
Trade that you regret doing (buyer/seller)
Trade that you wish you had done.
Missed Chance
Marc Gasol Chandler Parsons
for
Tristan Thompson #12
Regret
That Kyrie for Dragic trade from a billion years ago and that's after trading Bynum for Kyrie.

Regret: I regret trading Alec Burks for Anthony Bennett, although Bennett did turn into Cam Payne eventually and Burks has been injured most of the time. Missed Chance: with a bit more negotiation I feel like I could've got Paul George for Alec Burks, Fab Melo (BOS 2012 1st) and some more pieces, probably another 1st. It would've completely revolutionised by team's trajectory, the tank would never have happened. Enes Kanter, Rajon Rondo before he died in a fire and Paul George plus whatever pieces fit around them.

My biggest missed opportunity is definitely not getting Paul Millsap.
This trade was close to happening:
84 Paul Millsap
for
79 Ersan Ilyasova 77 Andre Miller 77 Shannon Brown DEN 2016 1st round pick
Which in hindsight would be one of the biggest robberies in D5 history. Charles Barkley kept his head on straight though and didn't end up going for it.
I could have easily had Millsap if I traded the Spurs 2014 1st round pick. I refused because I wasn't going to give up my chance to draft Wiggins.
The whole thing failed big time though because San Antonio hugely over-performed that year, I only got the 7th pick, I drafted Noah Vonleh, he was a bust, then quickly dealt him for Ryan Anderson. It didn't turn out too bad, but I could have had this roster:
Brook Lopez Paul Millsap Paul George James Harden Kyrie Irving
I'm sure I'm the only person in D5 that is disappointed with how this played out.

Not trading my 2014 1st to CB for Kawhi Leonard That draft class was so hyped up and it was just before Kawhi really came into his own. Props to Dan Majerle for having the foresight to gamble on Kawhi

Props to Dan Majerle for having the foresight to gamble on Kawhi 2014 #21 - Jordan Adams ouch! It was a top 10 pick for sure... the one I ended up flipping to CB w/ others for Jabari Parker. I think it was #7?

CB offered me this. Paul Millsap for Amar'e, Stephenson, and a 2014 first round pick.

It was a losing trade. But I can hold that up as the only trade I've clearly lost. Some have way more.
