Drummond and Monre Played 15 Minutes Together in Suns Game

Joe D said all along the reason he wanted to keep Stuckey and CV were to have their contracts for a trade.

Did he really say that? I don't recall, but I hope that is true.

Only way Monroe is a long term fit here is if he's willing to be a 6th man. Kind of like Dice's old role.

Oh, you mean the same McDyess that took a starting role for us when we won 59 games? When they insisted we had two power forwards in McDyess and Rasheed and we couldn't start two PFs together?

McDyess and Sheed could both shoot, Monroe and Drummond both can't.

So? Spreading the floor is a team issue. If your 2 and 3 are shooting sub-30% from three point range you do NOT complain about your big man's jumper.

If your bigs can shoot than it's not as important for your perimeter players to be good shooters. It is a team issue but it's extremely difficult to succeed as an offense when you're clogging up the lane with two bigs that can't go outside the paint even if you have good shooting at the wings.
