Former NBA player Joe Smith reflected on key moments in his career, discussing the rapid succession of trades he experienced in 2009. Smith was initially traded from the Thunder to the Hornets in exchange for Tyson Chandler. However, the trade fell apart when Chandler failed his physical. Smith returned to the Thunder before subsequently being traded to the Cavaliers and then signing with the Atlanta Hawks as a free agent. In 2010, Smith became the 92nd player in NBA history to play 1,000 games. He also shared experiences with notable teammates, including Kobe Bryant, mentioning Kobe's unique approach to the game. Furthermore, Smith highlighted the humility following a harsh debut with the Lakers, where the team lost heavily to the Grizzlies, and praised the Lakers' management for giving him another shot at a championship.
