@@josecarranza7555 not sure how the Detroit rosters would have changed from 2003-2005 in that alternate universe but he would of been an incredible asset to that team. He would not of been an iso scorer on that team like how he developed on the nuggets. Could of even been an insane 6th man for that gritty pistons championship team. Still would of been a hall of famer most likely just too offensively gifted

People forget how some thought Melo should have been rookie of the year that year. I would put it this way, Darko did nothing for the pistons championship run that year or the years after. Melo would have help pistons go 4-0 against the Lakers. He was that good as a rookie. They probably would have beaten the Spurs the next year. That series went 7 and was a hard fought one and pistons had a few games where they didn't get over like 75 points. Pistons had a great D but struggled on offense. With Melo that wouldn't had happen as often. For sure 6th man off the bench probably his first 2 years.

@@MakeUDawn oh I think they did. Maybe not against worse teams, but they did against teams like pacers, spurs, heat and Cavs. I think melo changes the tide and they probably come home with at least one more chip. They had stretches in games where they couldn't buy a bucket. Melo fixes that to some extent.

eatcheesekobe I'm a Pistons fan and i can care less that Dumars passed on Melo or Wade because both of them would have the same fate as Darko considering the fact that Brown absolutely HATED subbing in rookies. So his fate would been the same as Darko as a benchwarmer. Also we won the finals the following year so i'm not mad lol.

@eatcheesekobe 10 жыл бұрын

pistons, not pistons fans. as in the organization, because they passed on a future HoF for darko (although the fans should be pissed too that their head office made such a decision). and since you mentioned it, who's to say they wouldn't have won more if they had made a better pick? melo at the 4 with sheed at the 5 after they traded big ben wouldve worked out pretty good, or bosh for that matter. even wade couldve worked out with them having prince as a versatile forward who can play multiple positions. if i remember correctly, they lost in the finals, then conference finals over and over again the few following years. who's to say wade, bosh, or anthony couldn't have helped them over the top? and just for that, the organization would be mad for years.

@TheAfghan72 10 жыл бұрын

eatcheesekobe I doubt the organization is beating themselves up for something that happened almost 13 years ago. There was no need for melo, we had prince who was drafted the pervious year at SF an he was peeking as a potential star. Big Ben was great back then when he had won the defensive player of the Year. I agree that wade or melo would have been a great asset to us, but look at the denver when they had melo, they were always 3rd round exists. I think pistons kept loosing in the playoffs because of lack of leadership and lebron who was great back then.

@eatcheesekobe 10 жыл бұрын

melo lost because he had no one around him. an immature jr smith, anthony carter and a 5'5 boykins as your point guard, and he carried them to playoffs his first year, on the west too. yea ben was good, but he was traded what, 05? he gave like 3 good solid years, maybe 4, that's nothing compared to what any of the 3 picks would've given the pistons in the next 10 years after the draft

2003 redraft should have gone like this 1. Lebron James, no doubt this man is already a top 5 player of all time, easily the best player in this draft 2. Dwayne Wade- this man is a three time nba champ a finals mvp, multiple all stars, pick him here without question, arguably the 3rd best shooting guard of all time behind only jordan and kobe. 3. Carmelo Anthony- he may not have a chip, but he is one of the most dynamic scorers we have ever seen, denver picks up melo here again 4. Chris Bosch- The best big man in this draft, one of the best raptors players of all time and a two time champ 5. This one is tough, and really hard to judge, but I would probably have gone with david west. He is the most accomplished out of the rest of these players in this redraft.

Lebron went to the Cavs and definitely lived up to the hype and more. He has outlasted everybody in this draft. Took our terrible team to the finals at just 22 years old by himself, Has won 4 Championships and exceeded all expectations. Legendary. And I can't believe the Pistons took milicic over Wade, Anthony and Bosh. Probably anybody else in this draft would've been better.
