What if Mark Cuban bought the Celtics instead of the Mavs?
What if Donald Sterling bought the Celtics instead of the Clips?
What if James Dolan owned the Celtics?

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

What if Al Jefferson and Perk went to college? Or what if the age limit had been in place when they came out?

On the flipside, what if Telfair and Gerald Green went to college?

What if Danny had really bitten Tree Rollins finger?

What if Larry & Dr. J weren't held back?

What if Dominique hadn't gone to Greece?

 
sometimes you have to bite your lip, exhale and move on.  So, I have.

What if McHale had wanted to score more than 56, what would Larry had scored?

what if we had a decent bench in this playoffs?
what if we were in the finals without KG?

What if Red went to the Knicks in the late 70s?

What if John Bagley didn't have pancakes for pre game meals?

How good could The Celtics have been if we never traded Paul Westphal?

We had him from 72-75 and he was only a young role player. Then we traded him to Phoenix for Charlie Scott (avg'd 18pts 4reb 4ast in 2 years with the C's) Paul Westphal went on to play in 5 consecutive All-star games, And Nearly defeated us in "The Greatest Game Ever Played"

What if Bird and McHale where black?
And what if Magic and Worthy were white?
But same exact skill sets.

Think any calls would have gone differently? (I don't). Think there would be a completely different perspective of the Celtics today? (I do).  Think we'd have a different fan base right now?  (Probably not completely different, but maybe 30%-40% of the fan base would be different).  What would Rodman say then after we beat the Pistons? 

Chew on that one for a while.
