Monroe is signing a max contract with Milwaukee, which I'm thrilled about.

MCW/Middleton/Giannis/Parker/Monroe 8-)

Bucks have a bright future

really don't like Monroe and the Bucks' move.

That's going to be the worst defensive front court in the league

So we basically traded Monroe for Ilyasova in a round about way in thatthe Ersaon trade opened up max money room for them to make this offer with.

I always knew Greg wasn't a LA or NYC kind of dude. He'll enjoy Seattle 8-)

Interesting. Parker and Monroe is a bad combo defensively but the other three starters are all above average at the least in that regard. I think it will work out well.

MCW / Bayless / Ennis
Middleton / Mayo / Vazquez
Giannis / Dudley
Parker / Henson
Monroe / Zaza / Plumlee

That's a DEEP squad.

The Bucks' future certainly looks bright.

Can't help but find it hilarious that if they kept Knight 3/5ths of their starting lineup consist of guys that used to be on our team. Not sure what all the talk about Joe D being a bad GM was, he sure did a nice job of helping to rebuild the Bucks.

Not a fan of MCW though. High turnovers + bad shooting + very inefficient is a bad combination. Should've just kept Knight and had Giannis/Jabari and now Monroe help run the offense.

Giannis and Parker are SF. One of them should play at 2.

I could see Giannis playing PF and Parker SF.

pistontr · Post #11 » by **pistontr** » Thu Jul 2, 2015 3:12 pm

it is good both for us and monroe. he is center and we have drummond at that position.

Im very jealous of that team TBH. They are already a playoff team and have a super bright future.

Yeah, they're both combo forwards that will be able to rotate between the two spots. Whatever the best matchup for Parker is on a nightly basis will probably decide it. Parker playing power forward is probably the best way to hide him on defense though.

El Chivo · Post #14 » by **El Chivo** » Thu Jul 2, 2015 3:14 pm

a really painful p'n'r defense for them.

pistontr · Post #15 » by **pistontr** » Thu Jul 2, 2015 3:14 pm

MCW/Giannis/Parker/Henson/Monroe

it will be great team defensively and offensively

Kilo · Post #16 » by **Kilo** » Thu Jul 2, 2015 3:17 pm

Did they have max room or is there S&T potential? Do they maybe want to keep fishing in free agency and free up come cap space by S&T'ing for Moose?

Spacing will be awful only one true shooter in starting lineup.

We'll finally get to see what the Pistons practice is like and watch Drummond DESTROY Monroe in the paint.

Hotmayo · Post #19 » by **Hotmayo** » Thu Jul 2, 2015 3:19 pm

when you dont have an athletic center in todays nba to defend the p N r, then your squad wont be good. Their interior defense will be so bad when reggie jackson is laying it up on greg, all pistons will finally realize how bad gregs defense really is. Parker and greg interior defense is laughable.

whitehops · Post #20 » by **whitehops** » Thu Jul 2, 2015 3:19 pm

both giannis and parker will see minutes at power forward.

I'm glad Monroe will get to play at his natural position again, and especially on a young a promising team.

best of wishes moose.
