Rondo's performance was not as good as before after leaving the Celtics. For the Mavericks, trading Rondo was obviously a very failed operation.
8, The Knicks 6 exchanged 1 for Bargnani

The Knicks sent Steve Novak, Marcus Camby, Quentin Richardson and the 2016 first round, 2014 second round, 2017 second round, from Raptors replaced Bargnani with the 2006 No. 1 pick, but Bargnani played a total of 77 games with the Knicks in the past two years.

Pierce and Terry were already 35 years old at that time, and Garnett was 37 years old. However, the Nets also gave away so many draft picks, which made the Nets poor in the next few years, while the Celtics obtained a large number of players through these draft picks. Young talents rise in an instant.
In the 2013-14 season, the Big Five of the Nets made a strong attack, but were easily taken away by the defending champion Heat 4-1 in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The worst deal in the past ten years, and the worst deal in NBA history. It is hard to imagine that three veterans over 35 years old would be given away so many first-round picks in the future. If this were placed today, the general manager of the Nets at the time would be more Li-Jin was absolutely scolded.
From the current point of view, the Lakers' deal with Westbrook is obviously a failure, but there is still one season to prove that Westbrook's $47 million to the Lakers was not in vain.
