Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim says Carmelo Anthony 'unlikely' to win NBA title

Jim Boeheim has seen Carmelo Anthony win some big games throughout his career, but Syracuse's basketball coach does not think Anthony will ever win an NBA championship.

"He's unlikely to win an NBA title,'' Boeheim, who coached Anthony to an NCAA title with Syracuse in 2003, told Syracuse.com Tuesday . "He's never been on a team that even had a remote chance of winning an NBA title.

"As a player, all you can do is try to make your team better, and every team he's been on he's made them a lot better. Denver hadn't done anything prior to him getting there and he took them into the playoffs.
