-1st post-

Has anybody thought about the possibility of the Cavs and Pistons trading around Greg Monroe and Dion Waiters. I know salaries dont match and would need at least Brendan Haywoods salary and maybe a draft pick to get Monroe from the Pistons but both teams would benefit. Pistons wont commit to Monroe and lets face it Waiters doesnt fit with the Cavs. And if somehow someway if Cavs could get Ray Allen back on the floor, Cavs could have a nice rotation with Monroe-Love-James-Belladova-Irving and a bench of Thompson-Marion-Allen-Miller. Blatt could finally learn how to run a proper rotation and take advantage of the versatility that James offers him depending on the game situation. And if they can even sign Okafor once he is healthy and can get him to contribute a strong 10-15mins a game off the bench, Cavs would have solved all their problems.

Hoping Blatt figures out his 9-man rotation and situational lineups

Haven't watched Monroe...but...why is he averaging 0.2 blocks per game?
