The Trail Blazers fire sale was at a fever pitch at the 2012 trade deadline. Portland traded the aging Gerald Wallace to the Nets for Mehmet Okur, Shawne Williams, and a first round pick.

Okur and Williams never made an impact for the Blazers, but that first round pick just happened to turn into Damian Lillard. Wallace is irrelevant now and Lillard is a top talent. Enough said.
