The "What If" Thread

[Houndy]

This thread is for people to ask some What if moments in NBA history, For example:

What if OKC never left Seattle?
What if Oden never got hurt?
What would have happened if the Wolves kept Brandon Roy, instead of trading him for Foye?

Discuss about it, ask question, have fun.

[Lamrock]

Yeah, this is pretty epic.

[rise]

We could also wonder what would have happened if the Bobcats had drafted Roy instead of Ammo...

By the way, it's WANDER- not WONDER. Unless you're talking about "WONDERING ABOUT THE PAST".

[Lamrock]

More interesting would be Rondo with Minnesota.

[rise]

Or if Rondo had stayed in PHOENIX!!!

[Fresh8]

What if Joe Johnson stayed in Phoenix?

[rise]

How about Shawn Marion?!

[dare]

I'm sure this has been in talk before but just to put it here, what if Kobe stayed in the Hornets?

Then the Lakers would suck

[rise]

No, the Lakers would have found some way of making Vlade Divac a superstar.

Epic question: What would have happened if the Wolves kept Brandon Roy, instead of trading him for Foye?

I think that the Wolves would be way better, close to playoffs. The Blazers however, probably would've stayed a Cellar Dweller. Discuss.

or if boston kept the pick for themselves and picked roy

[Houndy]

Boston would never have the Big 3

[formx]

What if the Lakers never traded for the pick to draft Magic Johnson back in 1979?

[|)e8*]

What if Thunder drafted Tyreke Evans

[shadowgrin]

What if Portland drafted Jordan in '84?

[benji]

What if people in this thread had well thought out opinions and made posts so people could discuss and debate since that's the only point of counterfactuals?

Also, what if people in this thread actually knew how draft day trades work?

Finally, what if Dan Gilbert made a time machine, went back in time and killed LeBron in the womb, and then on the way back there was a malfunction and he was sent to Roman times where the device exploded killing Augustus?

Well for one thing there would no Decision so Lebron could never break the hearts of the Cleavland fans.

[benji]

You're really going out on a limb there.

Here goes the most epic question of all.. What if Yao and T-Mac were healthy?

I'm sure you mean, "What if the Pistons drafted Chris Bosh and rattled off 4 or 5 championships in the 2000s?"

[Sauru]

Or if Rondo had stayed in PHOENIX!!!

this is easy to answer. rondo would be sat on the bench and no one would really know who he is. he was given the time to grow in boston thanks to the "big 3" and thats how he became the player he is today. his inability to shoot would leave him on the bench maybe even 3rd pg

The Rockets would've pwned the Lakers and any other puny team in the league.

[Cartar]

What if James Naismith never was born?

[Houndy]

Then I would be invent Basketball

[shadowgrin]

Thread over then. Lock?
