NBA History: 5 Biggest NBA Trades since 2010

#1 LeBron James to Miami Heat

Phoenix Suns v Miami Heat

LeBron James is often considered the best basketball player in the world and regarded by some as the greatest player of all time.

Even after giving his best, he was not able to win the NBA Title with Cleveland. In July 2010 James became an unrestricted free agent and decided to form the 'Big three' by signing with Miami Heat. At the time it was regarded as one of the most controversial move (just like Kevin Durant joining the Warriors).

LeBron's move to Miami Heat in 2010 was seen by many as a free-agent signing. But it was a sign-and-trade. This move saw the Cavaliers acquiring two future conditional first-round picks, two future second-round picks, an option to swap 2012 first-round pick and a trade exception.

With the help of fellow All-Stars Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, King James led the strong Miami team to the Finals four times in a row, winning back to back NBA championships(he was named league MVP and NBA Finals MVP in both championship years).

James came back to Cleveland and helped them win 2016 NBA Title. After successfully completing his mission for the Cavs he moved on to Los Angeles, where he is the top guy and is looking to win the Championship this year.
