Should've been ROY.

Should've won MVP in 2013.

Led Denver back from obscurity.

Took on the challenge of NY instead of going the super team route.

Pay homage, pupils.

Anthony, also 28, led the league in scoring (28.7 points per game) and helped the Knicks capture their first Atlantic Division title in 19 years despite injuries to Amar'e Stoudemire, Raymond Felton and Tyson Chandler. The Knicks, 54-28, won 16 of 18 games to close the regular season.

If you were to take Anthony off the Knicks, they are a lottery team. James plays with two other All-Stars, the league’s all-time 3-point leader, a defensive stalwart, and a fearless point guard. The Heat are loaded.

Melo would have been top 10 GOAT if he was drafted on the Pistons.

Imagine.... ROY over LeBron (he should have won it either way)
3-4 rings before 25
28+ ppg most of his prime
Different career path and end.
Maybe he bounces a couple times like LeBron and chases rings to end it.

Definitely a possibility.
