Bro rose was gonna get hurt. He was unicorn. Westbrook and iverson were similar,but I don’t think I’ve ever seen that much power and speed ever from a player other than lebron. Super suprised Westbrook has stayed healthy this long. Iverson I’m sure had ailments but was able to play feather weight at what 5”10. Westbrook and rose were 6”3ish but Westbrook more lengthy while rose extremely compact like a running back.

Hill and penny both could have accomplished more with their ability and size without chronic injuries.

Roy was very impressive but really got dealt bad cards.

I think Yao has to be thrown in the mix. Ford out of Texas, Jason Williams out of duke are players with great abilities and bad luck.

A healthy Bill Walton would have been Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 2.0. Larry Bird was Larry Bird no matter what his back was like. In his era the Celtics and the Lakers would have met in the finals for about ten years in a row and each would have won about half of them so not much in history would have changed. A healthy Walton would have given Portland two or three more championships in the mid to late 1970s before Bird and Magic entered the league.
