-- Adam, TorontoSG: There's a bigger one: After Seattle picked Robert Swift in the 2004 draft, the Celtics offered the Sonics the 13th pick (basically, the rights to Al Jefferson) and their 2005 No. 1 pick for Swift's rights … and Seattle said no. Three years later, the Celts turned Jefferson, the 2005 pick (Delonte West) and other stuff into Kevin Garnett and a 17th title. So that's right up there. I mean, have you SEEN Robert Swift?
