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.

I think an interesting spin off of that is what if MJ came back, lost in the Finals both years, and the rest of his career turned out exactly the same? How would we view MJ differently? Probably not a likely scenario, but a lot of MJ’s mystic comes from the fact that he never lost in the Finals. And what about if he wins one and loses the other?

He would have won
