I'm bored let's do a #sports what if #QuestionOfTheDay

I'm reading up on Len Bias (2nd overall pick in the 1986 NBA draft and often compared to Michael Jordan for his athleticism and mid range jumpshot) and his untimely death a few days after being drafted by the Celtics and he's one of the big basketball what if questions.

So my question to you is what's YOUR big sports what if question and what do YOU think happens if it played out differently? One caveat (to make it interesting), it has to be for a team/nation you root for.

@ami_angelwings I still think that if Higuaín had scored and Argentina had won the 2014 football World Cup none of this* would have happened.

*all of this.

@ami_angelwings to be a bit more in depth, that would have been the crowning moment for Messi in his prime, a decade earlier. The win, and the psychological* push, would probably have also meant a copa América win instead of a loss against Chile.

* but then again the largest problem of that team was psychological.
