    What if we kept Horry and Cassell instead of trading them for Barkley...

    More championships and respect from the media?

    What would happen if McGrady and eventually Yao never got injured, and the Rockets went to battle with the Lakers with Yao, McGrady and Artest.

    I put $3,000 on them at the start of the year to win the championship at $15.

    Man, what could have been...

    What if Kevin Bass got a hit that day?

    What if Lillard missed that shot?

    The biggest what if in the history of this franchise …. Lew Lloyd and Mitchel Wiggins.


    And What If they didn't trade the league MVP to Philly.

    Producing an Olajuwon of sartorial elegance, with a 90% free throw stroke, and better fisticuffs? I can see that.

    What if the NBA actually liked Houston as a market and didn’t rig games for us to lose?

    What if Scott Foster didn’t exist?

    Finley out of bounds
    Every warriors series.. particular game 1 last year and game 6 and 7 year before.

    What if the rumored trade of Ralph Sampson for Michael Jordan had gone down? How many rings for an MJ/Dream duo?
