Worse Hawks Deal Ever?

[Lascar78]

that was milwaukee, not seattle, but you're right

I remember milwaukee fans telling us we'd been had right when we acquired him, I thought they were out of their mind. He was bad

I think every city has it's own list of screw-ups. My favorite was Seattle hiring Jim McDaniels (the ABA MVP) to play with Spencer Haywood. McDaniels came to town to talk contracts and when they didn't agree - he offered to play in one game to show them what he could do (would never happen now). So he played in a Sonics game - scored 40+ points, grabbed 20 rebounds, and blocked some shots. - The owner then signed him to the FIRST million dollar a year contract. - - - After that McDaniels averaged 5points/4rebounds.
