In 2003 at draft day the Pistons chose Darko Milicic with the 2nd overall pick instead of taking Carmelo Anthony who was on the board. That was a definite “My bad” moment for Joe Dumars but according to rumors, they are going to try and redeem themselves by seeing if they can scoop up the Nuggets star:

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.

If Carmelo is on the market, look for a lot of teams to go hard to try and get him.
