Greg Monroe


I have read many posts on CelticsBlog and even yesterday on SI Fansided about the Celtics needing to pursue Greg Monroe. I admit going into the summer I really liked the idea of adding a 24 year old center to our young team. The upside on Monroe is that he is an efficient post scorer capable of a double double nightly. Realistically we haven't seen that in Boston since Parish. I have also heard loud and clear the downside that he is not a rim protector (though Love wouldn't be either).

it seems to this biased Celtic fan that we have more than enough assets including expiring deals (Bass, Anthony), non guaranteed deals (Bogans), draft picks or possibly an enticing veteran (Green) not to mention young inexpensive talent to entice SVG into a deal.

So what gives?

i am trying to figure out if Monroe truly does not fit Stevens motion offense (though he is a good passer) and thus the Celtics don't want him or is DA waiting for the Pistons price tag in a sign and trade to come down?

What do you all think
