This video falls under fair use. Fair use allows commentary, criticism, and reactions. Ben Wallace claps back at Carmelo about Detroit, not drafting him. With the second pick in the 2003 NBA draft, the Detroit Pistons select Dark Milichic from Serbia and Montenegro. Joe Dumar had drafted him instead of Dark Milichic. Carmelo Anthony has a title if not two. It was Joe Dumar’s team and Joe Dumas in fairness to him understand that Joe Dumas had Taan Prince, he had Rip Hamilton, he had Benny and Rasheed or eventually Rasheed Wallace and he’s like we got a crew we could, you know, Eastern Conference Finals and then ultimately the NBA finals backtoback years. His whole mentality was that we didn’t need it, but we needed another big. But Carmemelllo Anthony was Carmelo Anthony coming out of Syracuse, a national champion, all-American, and what he brought to the table. And it’s instant buckets. You know what he’s going to bring. And if you know anything about Melo, even though he is mellow, that town was made for. I don’t know if you’ve ever thought about it. You might have in passing, but obviously Detroit skipped over you, took Darko. Do you ever think cuz that was a good Detroit team. Obviously, they went on and won championships. You ever think of that like the course of my career, right? Insert him. It was I’m going to tell you what, man. I like to this day, I still think about that. Really? Yeah. Hell yeah. Cuz I’m like they they promised me, you know what I’m saying? Yo, we taking you. We taking you day. I’m talking about all the way up to draft day. You understand? We taking you. So, in my mind, I’m like, I’m going to Detroit. Johny there. Johnny John, all these guys is there. She came in the middle of the year. I mean, she got traded. That’s right. And that’s what really put them over the top. But they was like, “Yo, you going to share time with like with uh TA?” I’m like, “Cool.” Like, I ain’t, you know, I’m going come and do my thing. But I don’t know how long I’m going to share time with him. You know what I’m saying? I’m just coming and do my thing. And then they won it. And I’m like, “My luck.” You know what I’m saying? Like if I’m honestly, if I’m there, I think we win. they win another one. I think so too. You know what I’m saying? Like I I wouldn’t jump out there and we three people. But I think we go back to back if if if I’m there because that second year for me would have I would have learned from those guys. They was all vets and I would have learned from those guys in a way that that second year coming back I would have been a totally different player coming back. But you know everything happened for a reason. Everything happened for a reason. Yeah man. I still think about that though to this day bro. Like cuz I want to say then we had Rip on the show and Rip swore you was coming too. I’m telling you man, we drove me. We drove from Bemore to Philly. Me and my man Bae. We drove from Bemore to Philly, man, to go watch. It was Detroit versus Philly. And Larry Brown had already took the job at Detroit, but he was still coaching Philly. So we’re in the back and he like, “Yo, we we taking you like we taking you.” So I, you know, I’m driving back up up 95 like, yo, we going to Detroit. The whole hood is we Detroit. Detroit. You know what I’m saying? So it’s like that [ __ ] still, that [ __ ] still sit with me to this day. Everybody thought you was going to go to Detroit. Everybody. Everybody. Including Melo. Including us. Including the Pistons. We was already celebrating, bro. It would have been the perfect Like most people always be like, would he have started or would Melo have started or Tate? Well, what most people don’t they forget is that at the time of that draft, we didn’t have Sheed. Mhm. We got Sheed at the trade deadline. So Melo would have been starting off the top. We still reminisce about that, man. Like we still don’t know what happened. I know what happened. Yeah, bro. It’s crazy, man. But we always like, man, we win at least three chips, bro. I say it all the time. I be on him. I said, Brown would have to leave Cleveland a lot earlier than than he left cuz they never was going to beat us. Yeah, they never would have beat us. If we would have drafted Carmelo, I honestly don’t think we would have ever won a championship. Why is that? You think like the focal point would have been on him too much or like as a as a high high value rookie or Melo would have wanted to play right away. Okay. And the expectation of him would have been right there too, right? So it would have had the potential to disrupt the team chemistry. Yeah, but by drafting Darko, Darko was the guy that came in and said, “I can’t play on this team. I’m not ready to play on this team. Who am I going to play in front of? I’m not ready.” And by him doing that and accepted his role, it allowed us to build and grow, build and grow, get stronger and get stronger and eventually win a championship. Win the championship. If he would have came in saying, “I want to play. I need to be playing.” Now, he would have called his agent. His agent would have been calling Joe. Darko would have been talking in the media. You know what I’m saying? The media would been coming asking us crazy question and then we would have had to say something crazy. They would have took it back to Darkho. You know what I’m saying? the whole divide and conquer man if Melo would have dropped the Melo Taan would have never blossomed blossomed to be the type player that that he became you know what I mean and we won the championship off the back or maybe one of the well not maybe the best blocks that I ever seen in my life and I blocked a lot of shots. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Ben Wallace made it clear that he doesn’t believe the Pistons would have won a championship if they had drafted Carmelo Anthony in 2003. While Carmemelllo went on to have an incredible Hall of Fame career, Wallace argued that adding a high-profile scorer like Melo to that Detroit team would have disrupted the chemistry that made them so special. Wallace pointed out that Carmelo, as a national champion and top three pick, would have expected to play big minutes immediately. That pressure from the media and fans would have created unnecessary tension in the locker room, especially since the Pistons already had established veterans like Chanty Bilips, Rip Hamilton, and Taan Prince. Wallace also said that if Melo had been there, Taan Prince might not have developed into the defensive anchor and clutch performer he became. According to Wallace, the success of that Piston squad was rooted in unselfishness, role clarity, and defense, not star power or flashy offense. In contrast, Darko Milichic, though a draft bust on paper, never demanded playing time, didn’t create distractions and allowed the veteran core to build their identity without interference. Wallace believes that if Melo had come in with big expectations and minutes demands, it could have led to media pressure, locker room drama, and potential division within the team. He even suggested that the media would have created a rift, forcing players to speak out and breaking the team’s unity. In his words, “The Pistons grew stronger together because everyone bought in, including Darko.” For Wallace, Melo’s arrival would have disrupted that delicate balance. He’s not denying Melo’s talent. He’s saying timing, fit, and chemistry matter just as much. Sometimes it’s not about who’s better individually, but who fits a winning system. Wallace stands by the decision, even if it’s unpopular.
