If Len Bias survived, would Boston have kept on winning?

Len Bias died on June 19, 1986.
The Celtics were fresh of their NBA Championship win over the Houston Rockets.

Boston would reach the Finals the next season, but lost to the Lakers 4-2.

Had Bias survived, do the Celtics prevent the ensuing Lakers, Pistons and Bulls championships?

Maybe slow down the lakers that year, but not the Pistons/Bulls with the way that team was constructed. Bias would have kept them relevant for a few more years if everything worked out, but everyone else on that team was already :flabbynsick:

I do think Bird would have been able to play a few more years at a very high level since Bias would have taken some of the load off Bird.
