I’ve discovered two new interests in the last six months or so: Alternate History and NBA. So I thought why not combine the two with the help of NBA 2k24. This thread will be looking at how the Knicks not trading away their 1984 draft pick could have affected their approach to the 83-84 season...

Exactly what it says on the title. Let's say the Bulls fire Doug Collins one year early in 1988, Sloan rejects the Jazz's offer, and the original Bull goes home. Are MJ and Pippen as successful OTL in the next ten or so years? Bonus: What do you think happens to Phil Jackson? I kinda wanna see...

Hello, After some thought I have decided to make a Alternate Sports Timeline of my Own. I'm going to tell you the Rules for this Thread and what you can come to expect. 1. No Politics of Any Kind (including non-American Politcs) 2. Believable Trades and Signings ex. You can't Make Kareem...

Saving Basketball in Raincouver: A Vancouver Grizzlies Timeline

It was a controversy. It was pandemonium. A foul ball down the left field by Luis Castillo was hit down the left field line. and almost caught by Moises Alou, was batted by a Cubs fan, a fan whose name was lost to history, and the play was ruled a foul ball. The Cubs seem to be floundering...

Taken from the Seattle Times on April 2, 1983, three days before the Mariners begin the season against the Yankees Seattle- Just three days. Three days before the Mariners begin what is expected to be another abysmal season for them. Seattleites have gotten used to this in the last five years...

Ever since I have studied of professional sports in the United States, I have been curious about what scenario might lead the Supreme Court to rule the rookie drafts of the NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL as illegal restraints of trade, and what the long-term effect on professional sport in the United...

Prologue Clip played from draft night coverage of the 1986 NBA Draft on TNT Pat O’Brien “Well the Celtics are still on the clock now and with the consensus number one pick off the board in Brad Daugherty, who do you think the Celtics are probably going to take?” Larry Donald “Not sure Pat...

Canadian hip-hop legend Choclair wrote his famous (in Toronto, anyway) line "like Carter did to Philly..." Except of course he was referencing Joe Carter's double home run to win the World Series. So what if another Carter did it to another Philly? Vince Carter, Air Canada, Toronto legend...

My first non-football timeline. This one asks what if the Nets/Celtics trade from 2013 never happened?

Sn real life, as everybody knows, Shaquille O’Neal left the Orlando Magic, in part because he always wanted to be in Los Angeles, and, in part because of a newspaper poll where a majority of people said he wasn’t “worth” the large contract he was asking for? Now, what if Shaq stayed in Orlando...

Hey folks! I decided that this would be a fun little project to do in some free time. I hope you enjoy, and lets get started "With the second pick in the 2005 NBA Draft, the Atlanta Hawks select... Chris Paul, Point Guard, Wake Forest." "The New York Knicks have traded for the third pick. With...

Hi everybody! I finally decided to start this timeline. It is a sports collaborative starting in 1990. Feel free to post on college sports, nba, nhl, nfl, mlb, soccer, nascar, and the olympics. All I ask is you stay unpolitical. I'll kick this off, and then I and others will keep it up. Enjoy...

Kareem Abdul Jabbar was one of the greatest basketball players ever and had probably the most perfect basketball career of all time as he dominated in high school and college before joining the NBA in 1969 and having a 20 year career in the league winning 6 MVP’s and 6 Championships along with...

Ultra Jordan, Ante Lamelo Prelude to the 2004-2005 NBA Season In the fall of 2004, mere days before the beginning of the 2004-2005 season, the National Basketball Association had entered a crossroads. A unique crossroads of transition and change. It had been a whole year since the second...

Hello AH.com, long time reader, first time poster here. I recently came across @President_Lincoln 's incredible storyline titled "Blue Skies in Camelot." I just finished reading through what has been finished thus far, and in anticipation of whatever Mr. President is planning on adding to the...

Hello, some of you fine folks of this website might recognize me as that sports TL guy who can’t finish about half of them. Due to real life activities, especially nowadays, lack of interest or just my creative ADHD making me begin the shiny new idea as soon as it pops in my head, but getting...

"SHAQ WASN’T TALENTED, HE WAS JUST STRONG. I WAS TALENTED, AND I WAS STRONGER.” - DIVAC "I'm not trying to win individual awards. Kobe and Shaq were." - Webber "We made key stops and key baskets and stayed focused throughout the game. " - Stojaković "We got some stops and a lot of fast break...

Some questions after viewing The Last Dance... James Jordan isn't murdered. This is the big one. Without his father's tragic passing, MJ would not have retired as quickly as he did. Certainly retirement was on his mind and he was due for a long break after the first three-peat. But he wouldn't...

Either Kukoc decides to leave Croatia to play in the U.S., or the Yugoslavian Civil War doesn't escalate quite as badly, what if he joins the Bulls? Since Jerry Krause was so keen on making him the "future" of the Bulls at the expense of the repeat champion team, leading to animosity towards him...
