Around The NBA 2.0

Per WT, Pistons not looking to extend Monroe? I'm kind of not surprised. I'm not as high on him as a lot of people are.

I hope they trade him for a draft pick and drop to the 11th seed in the east, perfectly placed as the 9th pick.

I wouldn't mortgage my future on giving Greg Monroe close to a max contract if I was the Pistons either. He's nothing special, especially considering that Andre Drummond is already better & more impactful on the floor

[MasterIchiro]

I'd take him on a sign-and-trade for their pick back and Gordon. Tell me you wouldn't want that guy on our front court.

Isn't Monroe similar to Cody Zeller? He also isn't a good defender either.

If we didn't just draft Cody he would be worth a look. I'd rather dish out a max to Drummond but the Pistons will just match anyway

[catch20two]

Monroe shouldn't be on our agenda now that we have Zeller. I knew his days were limited in Detroit after Drummond's breakthrough but I thought that they would at least sign him and then began looking for suitors. Personally I think it's a dumb move for them if they let him walk. They should be able to trade him for a young guard like Klay Thompson or Harrison Barnes from the Warriors if not just some very solid veteran bench depth and draft picks.

Drummond is not better than Monroe. Not yet anyway.

I understand why you wouldn't think so because it's kind of a premature statement on my behalf by saying that Drummond is better than Monroe already, but if you watch the Pistons games it's easy to see that Drummond impacts how well the they play moreso than Monroe. Even if you look at their accumulated stats, Drummond isn't far behind Monroe with much less playing time. I'm willing to go out on that limb & say that Drummond is currently a better player than Monroe is coming off this offseason

[Elden Payton]

Monroe is ridiculously underrated.

No way Drummond has more impact than him although Drummond has an awesome impact defensively.

16/10/3/1/1 players are rare.

I'd trade them anything other than MKG, Kemba and our first for him.
