If you had the power to answer one of the great what-ifs in nba history, what would you choose? (alien.top)

For me it’s Derrick Rose’s career if he hadn’t been injured. The youngest mvp in history with some of the most electric basketball we’ve ever seen, it feels a little like robbery to have not been able to see that unfold.

1984 trade between the Rockets and Trailblazers for Clyde and the #2 pick for Sampson. Hakeem, MJ, Drexler.

End thread.

Sticking with Hakeem my biggest what if is what if Jordan didn’t retire the first time? Hakeem’s Rockets v Jordan’s Bulls is the greatest best of seven what if of all time imo

Why would Portland consider that?

[–] Vordeo@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

They actually offered that according to Hakeem.

Sampson was seen as a star at the time, and Drexler was still just a young promising wing.
