OT: What if thread

[Scoot26]

Gotcha.

What if the Bulls took Josh Smith with the 7th pick in 2004 draft.

We would hate him greatly for taking those 18 foot jumpers all the time.

 

[thechosenone]

You missed the point I was trying to make. It was about things that had an actual chance at happening without altering anything.

lolwut?

 

[JosMin]

What if the Bulls were able to pull off that trade for Kobe?

 

[Deng Defense Force]

Endless and without a point discussion.

Here is one just for fun.

What if the Bulls had the 2nd draft pick in this lottery?lol

Hint: We would have drafted the same person Stacey King would have taken with the 1st pick had he been in charge.

You forgot with 19 seconds still on the shot clock and a wide open teammate standing three feet from the basket.

I guess you don't understand. People proposed things that really had no chance at happening. The scenarios I posted very well could've happened. Had they happened they would've changed things in the NBA.

That is without changing draft positions of any of the teams. Te only thing changed would be the person picked, or a trade that happened, not happening.

Got it?

This is more centered around draft night.

But this one had no chance at happening as Kobe was using the Bulls for leverage to get LA to make a move and they got Pau for a box of chocolates and a bag of M&M's

 

[Deng Defense Force]

What if we hadn't traded J.R. Smith to New Orleans?

What if Charlotte didn't trade Kobe?

 

[thechosenone]

What if we hadn't traded J.R. Smith to New Orleans?

we would have traded him in another team.

 

[Glide2keva]

What if we hadn't traded J.R. Smith to New Orleans?

That's interesting. Would he have gone apeshit crazy and become the chucker that he is today?

Would he be another Eddie Robinson?

 

[Scoot26]

What if we hadn't traded J.R. Smith to New Orleans?

Skiles would have buried him on the bench because he hates players like JR Smith.

 

[Axl Rose]

What if we hadn't traded J.R. Smith to New Orleans?

we traded him to denver

 

[houheffna]

we traded him to denver

He was traded to New Orleans...and that is a good what if...

And for the record, there is nothing wrong with looking back every now and then and saying what if. It makes for good debate.

I got a what if that nobody remembers. What if Jerry Krause actually pulled the trigger on that Hornacek deal with John Lucas and Philly? He was an allstar caliber guard at the time.

The Bulls win the title that year, i think, they at least make the finals...

And does anybody know what player Krause refused to trade that supposedly stopped the deal? That's right...Scott Williams. This is all rumored but still...

 

[BNB]

He was traded to New Orleans...

Nah, he was traded by the hornets to the Bulls and then we traded him to the Nuggets like a week later

Wait, what year was this? Scott Williams won a title with the Bulls his first 3 seasons. He was a rookie in 1991. Was this in 1994?

Yes...the year Jordan retired.

I thought he was traded for PJ Brown...my fault.

 

[Glide2keva]

Okay.

I was wondering.

Another what if: What if the Bulls drafted Michael Finley instead Jason Caffey (am I right on that one?)

 

[clonetrooper264]

Those terrible years after Jordan/before 2004 wouldn't have been as bad.
