    What if Dwight never got hurt?
    What if Harden stayed in OKC?
    What if Lebron was eliminated in the conference finals in 2012 and the heat broke up and never won a title?

    The biggest what if for me was the 2007-2008 and the 2008-2009 Rockets.

    What if the Rockets roster wasn't depleted and derailed by injuries?

    Tmac and Yao FINALLY had help, but it wasn't sustainable. Steve Francis returned to give us an all-star point guard to play alongside Yao and Tmac and ban Rafer to the bench. Instead he came in out of shape, and was damaged goods with a bad knee. Mike James and Bonzi Wells were signed to give the Rockets bench a scoring punch. Rookies Carl Landry, Louis Scola and Aaron Brooks were promising players eager to deliver and show they can be solid rotation players.

    We had the 22 win streak but by the end of it Yao was shut down, Francis was shut down and Tmac was left on his own with the scoring load.

    Next year was more of the same. Tmac/Yao injured and inconsistently playing. Francis released to make room for Brent Barry? We get past the first round with Aaron Brooks but eventually the depth lack does us in.

    The CBA gives out two MVPs a year. One for foreigners and one for Chinese players.

    Harden won the Player's MVP last year and was All NBA 1st team... I know you are just trolling :)

    Why stop at Lin? If Ty Lawson had the ball more often we would have Thai Curry!
