Will It Work?

My two favorite NBA players are now on the same team. But as much fun as it will be to watch Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson on the same squad, I just don't anticipate this working out.
Most importantly, they still play basketball in the NBA with only one ball.
Secondly, the Nuggets biggest problem was on defense, and this move weakens them in that area.
Lastly, the competition in the West (Phoenix, Dallas, Utah & San Antonio) is still better than the Nuggets. So at best I see a 5 seed in the playoffs and a first round loss.
If that happens there will be inevitable sniping about who gets the ball, who shoots too much and why are all the other guys not involved in the offense at all.

Carmelo lost all respect when he sucker punched Mardy. Carmelo is nothing but a lowlife-thug and should be banned from the NBA.
