Ok sure the Denver Nuggets have Allen Iverson but, he can't be the future for the Denver.
Iverson is already 33 and Carmelo is only 24 and he has proved to everyone he's one of the top players in the NBA. Every year he's just going to get better and better. This year he had one of his best overall years in 2007-2008 he had his highest Field goal percentages in 2 pointers and 3 pointers and also his highest in rebounds and steals. And made the all star team as a starter with Allen Iverson. He has also taken the Denver nugget team to the playoffs every year since his arrival. Before The Nuggets haven't made it there since Mutombo was there. He has a great resume in basketball he has even won a NCAA national championship very little great players get the NCAA championship that's a major accomplishment.
So why trade I don't understand?
The Denver nuggets Tried to trade him for Chauncey Billups and Tayshaun Prince. That's the stupidest and ridiculous trade I ever heard of. Sure That would fill their needs in at point guard and then at small forward for Carmelo's spot. Chauncey is a good point guard but not as a player maker and he's getting old he's entering his 14 season next year. Tayshaun Prince is good to but he's about to be 30 soon and he hasn't shown to be a ligament scorer yet. There was other trades as well but this was the best they had.
Carmelo is the Face of the Denver Nuggets no matter what no one says. He's to much of a talent to let go people say he's not a leader and stuff but look how much he means to The USA team he's shown he's a leader and Everything he has done for the nuggets. This team would probably of been like the heat last year of they didn't have carmelo.
