Soulstation1 Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 this is gonna be a close one melo has him on points, rebounds and wins Quote
PHILLYQ Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 SS1, I have to go with Carmelo Anthony. To me, he's had a greater impact on his team's performance than James has, but there's not a great margin there and I could go with co-rookies. Detroit really blew it, IMHO, when they didn't draft Carmelo Anthony. Can you imagine them with him now, and the Wallaces? They might do something in the finals. Quote
Noj Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Co-Rookies Of The Year. LeBron's individual numbers are better, 'Melo has helped his team to a better record in a tougher conference. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted April 13, 2004 Author Report Posted April 13, 2004 (edited) noj 'melo has lebron on scoring average and rebounds, plus the nuggs are in the playoffs. both this guys had some serious dunks this season ss1 Edited April 13, 2004 by Soulstation1 Quote
Noj Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Wow, guess I should check the numbers first! Maybe they should give it to 'Melo outright--'Melo's jumper is so smooth. How many assists is LeBron averaging? Both had serious dunks and both have serious game. Barring injury these two will do nothing but get better and better. Quote
chris olivarez Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 Melo because I live in Colorado . Melo is one of the big reasons the Nuggets made the playoffs. Quote

doubleM Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 I chose a tie. They are both amazing, but I think that LeBron is a better passer, and as far as I can tell, as better kid. Quote
Dave James Posted April 13, 2004 Report Posted April 13, 2004 I say make 'em co-rookies of the year. Believe they did that in 1970 with our own Geoff Petrie and Dave Cowens of the Celtics. LeBron and Carmelo are both terrific players. Nothing wrong with recognizing their contributions in tandem. Up over and out. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted April 14, 2004 Author Report Posted April 14, 2004 a few years ago jason kidd and grant hill were the co-roy i'd vote for luke walton but his numbers aren't good enough Quote
Chrome Posted April 14, 2004 Report Posted April 14, 2004 (edited) Hey, how come Darko Milicic isn't up there!? Signed, An envious anxious Pistons fan Edited April 14, 2004 by Chrome Quote
Soulstation1 Posted April 14, 2004 Author Report Posted April 14, 2004 has he even hit 100 points for the year? ss1 Quote
PHILLYQ Posted April 14, 2004 Report Posted April 14, 2004 The choice of Milicic may turn out to be a 'Darko' day in Pistons history... Quote
Chrome Posted April 14, 2004 Report Posted April 14, 2004 I can remember near the beginning of the season, the local sports radio station had Larry Brown on and one of the hosts asked Brown if fans would get to see Darko play at all this year. Brown just said "No" ... I thought he was joking, but I guess not. Picking Darko seemed pretty bizarre to me ... and so did letting Rick Carlisle go; I just hope Dumars knows what he's doing. Quote
Tjazz Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 I voted for co-rookies. Really think Carmelo should win, because of the playoffs. But have a feeling LeBron will win because he is more popular. Doesn't he sell-out on the road? Quote
SEK Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Chrome said: Picking Darko seemed pretty bizarre to me ... and so did letting Rick Carlisle go; I just hope Dumars knows what he's doing. In my opinion, Dorko was a mistake. Larry Brown was not. The acquisition of Rasheed Wallace was brilliant. GO PISTONS! Quote
doubleM Posted April 16, 2004 Report Posted April 16, 2004 Until 'Sheed starts w/ the dope busts, and other acting out behavior. Quote
chuckyd4 Posted April 18, 2004 Report Posted April 18, 2004 According to ESPN tonight, looks like LeBron will get the nod. I think that's pretty typical for the NBA these days - going for flash over substance - so it doesn't really surprise me. I voted for 'Melo here, though. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted April 18, 2004 Report Posted April 18, 2004 Why Detroit didn't draft Carmelo is a total mystery. Why send such a talented kid to the West, which already has enough talent? Can you imagine where they would be right now with him? Unbelievable. Darko isn't worth the cost of the dye in his hair right now. Maybe he'll turn into a good player, but that's a big maybe. Quote
Noj Posted April 18, 2004 Report Posted April 18, 2004 So the NBA is going to stiff 'Melo. This slight will probably motivate the Syracuse product to play well today... Quote
