06:56 AM ET 02.08 | At the NBA All-Star Game next weekend, George Karl will coach Deron Williams and Carmelo Anthony. That could have been an everyday occurrence if fate hadn't detoured. The Nuggets coach said Saturday that back in 2005, Denver had a trade on the table with Atlanta, which had the No. 2 pick in the draft. The plan was for the Nuggets to draft Williams, now an all-star for the Jazz.

Maybe they could have won a title had they drafted D Will.
No biggie they have Billups and Melo so they can make a good push in the playoffs.

You know how many teams have this exact story? "Well, we could have drafted for this guy, but, we're stuck with Baby now. I mean, UnoUno, sorry."

Also in 2004 :) Denver, Drafted pg Jameer Nelson #20. Traded the rights to Jameer Nelson #20 to the Magic for a future 1st round pick. Was it in 2005 cause Denver took at #20 Julius Hodge, at #22 Jarrett Jack, who PORT acquired the drafts rights to guard Jarrett Jack from the Denver for the draft rights to forwards Linas Kleiza and Ricky Sanchez

Question is then WHO was Denver trading to ATL ;) Starting pg for Denver in 04-05 Andre Miller 6.9 ast, only way I would draft another pG D-Will at #2 would be to trade Miller, + IF you think about it, Miller traded to PHIL for AI two seasons later
