    And where's Tom Owens?

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/o/owensto01.html

    from wiki:

    Late in his career, Owens was involved in one of the most one-sided trades in NBA history. After the 1980-81 season, the Blazers traded him to the Pacers and got the Pacers' 1984 draft pick in return. Owens was traded to the Pistons after the season and retired a year later. Four years later, the Pacers finished with the worst record in the Eastern Conference. However, because of the trade, the Pacers were left as bystanders in one of the deepest drafts ever, featuring such future stars as Michael Jordan, Sam Bowie, Hakeem Olajuwon, Sam Perkins, Charles Barkley and John Stockton. The pick acquired from Indiana turned out to be the one the Blazers famously used to select Bowie while Jordan was still available.

    This makes me feel so much better about the whole thing, you know. But man... can you imagine Jordan as a Pacer with Reggie Miller?

    actually, I bet in an alternate reality, someone is saying "man, in an alternate reality, you just know they're saying 'I can't believe Petur Gudmensson won 12 MVP's in a row'"
