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.

What if Jordan never got bored and retired/was shadow suspended (if you believe the conspiracy theories). Would the Bulls have won 8 straight? 6? How would Hakeem's career been perceived if they couldn't beat the Bulls instead of getting Ewing and a not yet ready to win Shaq?

This. I feel like the Bulls/Rockets finals would’ve been the greatest test the Jordan era Bulls ever faced. I think they take it, but they were always weak at center, and would’ve been fun watching Hakeem give them trouble.

It all depends upon if Horace stays or still leaves whether the Bulls even get there. Watching those Bulls games the season Jordan came back we’re frustrating because they were so weak at rebounding, Rodman was the complete missing piece there.
