Lucas: The Teams That Could've Been

Found July 29, 2009 on Tar Heel Times:
PLAYERS: Jerry Stackhouse,  Rasheed Wallace,  Jeff McInnis,  Vince Carter,  Antawn Jamison,  Shammond Williams
TEAMS: Memphis Grizzlies,  Boston Celtics,  Charlotte Bobcats,  Orlando Magic,  Washington Wizards,  Los Angeles Lakers

Stackhouse
Jerry Stackhouse doesn't think about what might have been. He and Rasheed Wallace left Carolina after helping the Tar Heels to a Final Four in 1995, eliminating the chance of a potential 1995-96 dream squad that would have included Stackhouse, Wallace, Jeff McInnis, Vince Carter, Antawn Jamison, Ademola Okulaja and Shammond Williams. "I like to call that 0/0 hindsight," Stackhouse says. "It didn't happen, so I don't think about it."
