With taking Giannis' motor, this is how Carmelo Anthony's choices played out:

Giannis: energy Jokic: IQ Doncic: pace

Anthony, a free agent right now, is a 10-time NBA All-Star, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, a select on the NBA 75th Anniversary Team, and currently ranked Top 10 on the NBA All-Time Scoring List.

'Melo' has cemented himself as one of the best pure shooters in the NBA over the last 20 years. If he acquired the aforementioned qualities, Anthony would be a nearly unstoppable player at the age of 38.

Meanwhile, the entire European trio is participating in the NBA MVP race this season, with Nikola Jokic being the favorite to win the third consecutive award.

Back-to-back MVP averages a triple-double of 24.8 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 10.0 assists over 54 games, while his Denver Nuggets rank first in Western Conference with 43 wins and 19 losses.
