re: take it for what it is worth S&T for Monroe

To make a sign-and-trade work financially, New Orleans has four players it could send to Detroit: Eric Gordon, Tyreke Evans, Jrue Holiday or Ryan Anderson.
I doubt the Pelicans would trade Holiday or Evans after acquiring them just last offseason, and Evans probably wouldn’t pique the Pistons’ interest anyway. They don’t need another player without 3-point range, especially a guard.
The Pelicans would love to unload Gordon, and if they want to discuss a deal based around Gordon for Smith – two overpaid players who still hold promise due to their talent, even if it hasn’t shown lately – that could work. But for Monroe? That should be a non-starter in Detroit.
That leaves Anderson.
Anderson, 26, is older than Monroe, meaning his prime will overlap less with Drummond’s – a significant concern. But Anderson is still reasonably young and, as a stretch four, a perfect on-court match for Drummond. Anderson had his best years in Orlando under Van Gundy and has reached levels Monroe never has. The biggest concern is how Anderson recovers from a neck injury that kept him out most of this season.

When considering the potential contract Monroe will demand, I think I would rather have Anderson. Monroe also does not fit an uptempo team if that is our eventual goal and he P&R defense is terrible.

When I started reading Gordon/Anderson for Monroe on the other message board, I laughed. I mean, if Detroit would do that, why wouldn't Lebron then not think about signing here? I mean, if we are talking utopia, that's it.

How good would this line up be in the East?
Jennings
Gordon
Smith
Anderson
Drummond
I think that is a solid line up. You would think Detroit would be interested. I bet they don't do any better.
