Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
how you think brandon jennings will fit in?:

I think he could do well for them only if he looks to set up Monroe and Drummond, I've never liked his game because I generally hate inefficient shot jacking PGs, but he can create off the dribble and should be able to get some easy buckets for himself and big Drum.

apparently nothing worthy of trading him. Monroe isn't really trying to come back but everybody that wants him doesn't have anything worth trading him for so if he wants to leave he has to sign the qualifying offer and take a huge risk. if anybody signs him to an offer sheet Detroit will match as no teams that want him have crazy cap space anymore.

Basically he's stuck in Detroit unless they decide to free him or he plays on a 1 year contract and risk his livelihood.

If he wants to leave, just take the QO.

I think we'll see more players do it and just treat it as a one year deal.

and turn down a guaranteed long term contract? theoretically he could get injured next season on that 1 year deal and never get a chance at the type of money he could take now.

its a risk one should never take in the NBA with guaranteed contracts.

Doubt it. Not only are you risking injury, but in Monroe's case you can be sure he'd be coming off the bench since he doesn't fit into the long-term plans. Don't think that'd help boost his value too much but maybe that's just me.

Big men with any semblance of talent will always get a look. Only an achilles tear would truly affect his value on the market.

Greg Monroe has missed 3 games in his NBA career. Is he gonna doubt his health every time he has a year left on his deal?

If you want out of a situation that bad, just treat yourself like an expiring. Ben Gordon did it and his reward was a bloated contract that JUST NOW ended. David Lee kinda did it and he's still got $30 mil coming to him over the next 2 seasons.

Brandon Jennings threatened to do it, now he has a bloated contract on the team Monroe is on.

If Monroe did it and still got paid, you know how many other people will do it?

Monroe(Falk) wants to do that 2 year 15 Mill a year deal shyt.

Monroe knows Stan Van Gawdy is gonna make his lazy ass work.

Monroe wants to get out of Drummonds shadow.
How do you know this in regards to the shadow theory? Monroe looked for Drummond the most out of anybody as far as passing the rock.

Of course I dont know that breh, but it's clear Monroe wants to be the man or at least the main big man.. Drummond swooped in and took his shyt Paul George/Danny Granger style. It's not personal, but Monroe wants to thrive as a name.

I think this is about Smith and not Drummond. If I remember correctly Moose asked Joe to take a look at Drum before he was drafted.
