I dont see Cleveland getting past Detroit with Melo on there… Detroit had a tight system with no super star and eventually got ran over by LBJ & Cleveland.
Wouldnt have changed anything Melo would have been a cancer to the offense. The guy is a ball hog that stalls the offense while everyone is watching him jab step for 20 seconds before doing something. There is a reason he never won a chip great HOF player who accomplished nothing besides clout and respect of his peers.
I always like melo more then bron fr bron is what he is not taken nun from that man bt melo should have been number 1 fr bt his son prolly will be a number 1 pick
That’s when teams drafted on needs.. vs potential more.. tayshaun just showed them both sides of the ball.. they needed a 4.. I think it’s more of a why didn’t they get Chris Bosh more than why didn’t they get melo..but it played out for both..
I think the nba did this to help bron. Call me crazy but melo was better back then and would have been the purr scorer that Detroit needed. That pick of darko makes no sense. If that team added melo they would have at least 2 more rings.
NBA rigged it to benefit lebron call me a hater but it’s facts they didn’t want Melo to have a headstart so then rob him out of Roty . D wade wins the 06 chip then the next year LeBron makes the finals

F Detroit for that they f'd up nba history.
Him and kiyan so alike 🤣🤣
Worst draft pick in NBA history, Joe dumars you literally blew the future of the NBA.
Bron put the call in.. said HELL NO Melo not going to Detroit or I'm going to Duke
Still mad my team fucked that up..
They thought they was getting the next Toni Kukoc lol…hey but they ended up winning a Chip so I'm sure they ain't that mad

As a fan I was so pissed at Joe Dumars for this bullshit!

Joe Dumars has been out of the league since 😂
Detroit would’ve made melo play defense
Larry Brown wouldn't have played Melo he showed that during the Olympics he didnt play young players

They didn't want his career to be better than Brons. Nike runs the NBA.
Detroit grabbed some Montenegro named Darko instead
Took the wrong Darko type shit
We all know the NBA is rigged. They wasn’t gonna allow Melo to go to Detroit. Nobody ever heard of bruh that went #2 lol
Bron made sure to keep bro out of the east
This one draft decision has destroyed the NBA for the past 25 years if you want to correct me, please do cause I guarantee you you can’t correct me
Dark day for us in Detroit

I’m a piston’s fan, worst draft pick of all time
Thats when you know the draft is rigged. No way detroit picks him over Melo
Joe dumb-ars type beat lol

Melo Thats cap! You had on Nuggets colors on draft night lol
Never let Joe Dumars forget his mistake please
This changes the last 23 years of the history of the NBA as we know it (imhumbleo, of course)
Pistons were the team to beat in the East and they knew if Detroit would’ve drafted Melo, LeBron’s legacy looks a lot different..
And then Bron robbed him of rookie of the year
Detroit would've had a dynasty if they took Melo
The Pistons team was already stacked, Melo would've been missing piece
That jacket niceeee
Detroit had a 75% chance to draft a HOFer with that pick and didn’t.
WHO TF IS TINGUS PINGUS!!!!
