Geez, I don't remember Rodman playing for the Spurs. Great quiz!

He left the bench and sat on a baseline with his shoes off in the conference finals against the Rockets. He was uncontrollable for the Spurs. He was always a bad boy, but it was in San Antonio where he actually earned much of his "loose cannon" reputation.

100% with less than 10 seconds left! Fun quiz. You could update it with other historical, if lesser-known, trades.

This needs to be updated a little more. LeBron switched from Cavs to Heat and now back to Cavs.

It doesn't show all the teams that the player played for. Just one move in a single year. For example, Shaq played for like 6 teams in his career...but the notable move was in 1996.

I got all but one with about 3 minutes remaining... then I sat there picturing Carlos Boozer's face, but taking like 90 seconds to remember his name. LOL.

It's rarer for a multi-year player *not* to switch teams.

I think Dwayne Wade moving from the Heat to the Bulls should be added too

Could you make T-Mac an acceptable type-in for Tracy McGrady, or is that not an acceptable type-in because it's technically a nickname?
