Pistons eye Carmelo, source says

[greasybugsy]

BOSTON — Do the Detroit Pistons have eyes for Carmelo Anthony?

It's no secret NBA front-office executives have tried to measure if the Nuggets might actually be willing to part ways with the 24-year-old Anthony, despite assurances to his agent that Denver is not actively shopping the high-scoring forward on the trade market.

Look for the Pistons, who fell just short of reaching the NBA Finals for the third straight season, to be among the teams putting out feelers in regard to Anthony's availability, according to a league source.

In one of the few personnel blunders committed by Detroit general manager Joe Dumars, the Pistons took Darko Milicic with the No. 2 pick in the 2003 draft, allowing Denver to select Anthony.

Not much of story, but interesting!

Pistons can't bring in Anthony without building a new team in my opinion. Darko was a stupid mistake. But Carmello shouldn't be settled into a supporting role just yet... he still has potential. Give him a PASSING PG, a C who can convert post points and an SG who can knock down 3s and he could easily develop into a player like Pierce or better.
Denver died. Move yourself Carmello

The Pistons already had their chance to grab Carmelo with the second pick but they fucked that up by taking Darko

Pistons wont get him though...

Melo just needs to stay put in DENVER and IMPROVE ON DEFENSE! They got the talent to be one the league's elite but they DONT have that "killer instinct" to put away teams in games...

So he needs 3 sure things to be good, and he's not a role player?

A bit off topic...,
IF I had it my way (keyword IF),

cuz he has more "D" than Melo's azz does; he can score too!
But I know that shit ain't happenin' (wishful thinkin' lol).
