CARMELO BEFORE THE HATE (Mini Documentary)

A look at the first 5 years of Carmelo Anthony's Basketball career, back when he was the #1 player in High school, the best player in College Basketball, a NCAA Champion and his early years with the Denver Nuggets when he was arguably the best talent out of the legendary 2003 NBA Draft, even better than Lebron James.
All before the NBA, Media, fans and entire Basketball world would eventually turn their back on the future Hall of Famer.
This is a Mini-Documentary style video I made with clips from other Carmelo videos, Interviews, Commercials and game footage. Hopefully it'll help counter all the popular Carmelo hate videos online and help remind young (and older) Hoop fans how great of at talent Carmelo truly is. And maybe they'll stop throwing dirt on his name.
Part 2 coming soon.
*Special thanks to Bleacher Report, Max Preps, Hoop On The Hill, Now This, NBA, ESPN, MTV, etc.... for all the clips.

Thanks for this mini documentary. many people writing off melo because he's getting older, forgetting the fact that he was once the best player in terms of stats in 2003. when you have your competition coming all the way to Denver to watch you play that says alot about that. he's always been a talent with the basketball since a kid. and how i know that cause before moving to maryland, be grew up watching his brothers and many other basketball players in the projects of red-hook Brooklyn. yes and i was one of them. his former neighbor.

[@lazerlazer]

For what Carmelo did in Denver he should’ve won rookie of the year. I feel bad for him because as great as he is/was, he doesn’t have one championship trophy to show for it. If he only just had one : ( .

[@inputname000]

He was so good at Denver. But he seemed to have rested on his laurels, his skills never develop as well as conditioning

[@stephaniewilliams3526]

Should have won rookie of the year

Ofc some idiot in the comments had to make this about the GOAT LeBron...Melo is great, enjoy him

[@keshiasmith1021]

I don’t know about the hate. Carmelo definitely was a major star and skill set is unmatched. However the league was not about to have him as the face of the league. It’s obvious who they wanted to lead that charge; Lebron. Knowing what we know now they got it right. In terms of marketing the league and being the face of the league he would have been too controversial. And what we have demanded of Lebron I’m not sure Carmelo was up to that task. Nothing against him though

Imaaaagine Detroit Pistons draft him ...... Carmelo would've had a better career than Lebron & Dwaaaade. Maybe he'll be named on of the GOATSS???

[@rapereggae7961]

To this day I don’t understand how Detroit let a freshman who lead his college to a chip pass.

[@vamoneygroup]

​@@rapereggae7961that let's you know how fake the nba is.

[@hmhm856]

Pistons won a title on Melo's rookie season and were very close to winning another one the season after. If Detroit had drafted Melo or Wade or Bosh, or if Darko developed nicely, then the Pistons do not trade for Rasheed during the season and no mini-Pistons dynasty occurs.
