For example, Lebron saying Shabazz Napier was his favorite pick in the 2014 draft.

I once proclaimed The Simmons & Embid duo was going to be more dangerous than Stockton & Malone.

One of the biggest, I guess. He still would be going against a prime Lebron era… so, it’s not like his squad was a guaranteed chip.

Way bigger what-ifs in my opinion.

Like who? Grant Hill? Brandon Roy?

I don't think there's a a player who peaked as highly as Rose and fell to injuries except Bill Walton, and that was almost 50 years ago.

Yeah DRose is the biggest what if. He was the youngest MVP. Not even Luka or LeBron became MVP at 22. There's really no contest.

I was 22 when he went down. It was a shock felt across the league. Sad day. :/

Him and Dwight Howard were my favourite players at the time.
