Carmelo was considered a one man band but this team was loaded with very good college players. i would say Danny Manning fit the bill as a one man band much better than Carmelo. Larry Bird as well in spite of the fact that he lost to Magic in the finals...
I use to hate Georgetown, but that was because they were so competitive. I do hope Georgetown can get back to being a top 10 team, and Syracuse too; We need one another!
You have to figure, if it weren't for Gerry McNamara's heroics in the 06 tournament, we would have had three consecutive years of the Big East Championship being Pitt vs Georgetown, but I give Gerry McNamara credit, he put Syracuse on his back in this tournament.
@ james power do you have these two NCAA tournament games 2003 NCAA tournament frist round in Boston Manhattan vs Syracuse 3 2003 2003 NCAA tournament second round game in Boston Oklahoma state vs Syracuse 2004 NCAA tournament second round game in denver Colorado pepsei center Maryland vs Syracuse
UConn ALWAYS gave us a hard time in these days. Loved watching these battles though with UConn, Georgetown, St. John’s, seton hall etc… I’m a Syracuse fan but man it’s a shame what happened to Georgetown. I don’t get it, is it money? They have an awesome history and tradition, a tough reputation, and awesome uniforms and a cool mascot to boot. I hope they become prominent again coming from a cuse fan. (I hope we become prominent again too 😂)
Thank you for the game! Been waiting to find this on here. Melo gave Memphis fits but they pulled off the victory against the eventual National Champions
Most national championship teams have that one game earlier in the tournament where they really had to survive and advance - and this was that game for the '03 Cuse squad. Even though they led the whole way and had the homecourt advantage in Albany they could never shake Auburn completely.
