The Pistons are a great team which Joe D. has put together marvelously. But, when are lucky to have the #2 pick in the 2003 draft which included Lebron James/Melo/D Wade, you don't draft a project in Darko Mililic, who barely played under Larry Brown and then was traded away. Chris Bosh was the #4 pick in the draft and is really making noise in Toronto, making them a playoff team this year. Given the exit of Ben Wallace, Chris Bosh could have easily stepped in to the C/PF position. Then the Pistons wouldn't have had to sign Nazr Mohammed to a long deal only to have him come off the bench once in a great while. Chris Bosh would have made this years Pistons a championship contender along with the Mavs and Suns. anyone share my opinion??

It's hard to question a guy who won the championship, but, geez, imagine if they had Melo, Bosh, or Wade in that mix! That would be scary! I mean multiple championships man!

all of it comes right down to what the basketball team needed. in the previous the draft, Dumars went out and have been given Chauncy and Rip, subsequently they did not % Melo, Wade, or Hinrick. What they needed replaced right into a center. Durring that draft there replaced into no quite sturdy offensive midsection so they have been given the perfect that they could. i'm particular that the scouts observed potential yet all persons understand that some gamers do not transition nicely in the NBA. actually, I dont understand what the hell they have been thinking while it got here to Bosh. that they had Ben Wallace( large defender, not any offensive skills) yet they did not aquire Rasheed till previous due that twelve months. Chris Bosh could have been picked up via Detroit, there's no excuse for that one. i'm no particular yet i think of Larry Brown had some thing to do with that %.. We could additionally keep in mind that knowone knew how sturdy Wade could be. Melo replaced into purely an offensive participant and that replaced into not what Detroit replaced into searching for. yet not taking Bosh, that replaced into retarded. I actually think of he merits extra credit, like being on the ballet for MVP.

He is a tall, mobile big man, with a good, developing shot and footwork in the post. They were hoping he would be the next Dirk Nowitzki.
