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 Old one, Mark Cuban not letting Steve Nash go. Dirk and Nash on their primes together growing old? When they’re both MVP candidates? That would’ve been amazing.

And the more recent one… a certain trade to the Lakers for a bag of peanuts

@Jdm2 would Nash have reached his full potential though if he didn't go to the 7 seconds or less Suns with D'Antoni?

It would also be interesting to see how Amar'e Stoudamire is thought about in that TL without Nash turning him into a superstar

@ami_angelwings if Dirk made a role player like JJ Barea look Nash-like playing the pick and roll, I would bet Nash would’ve lived up to his potential.

Pretty sure they would’ve stepped on each other’s toes when it comes to the MVP award. But they could’ve been contenders still.
