Could have had Nerlens Noel on a rookie deal as opposed to signing Monroe to a max deal
Noel hasn't even stepped foot on an NBA court yet... and likely won't do so until 2015.

I like Jrue but he made the all star game because of injuries.

He was still averaging 19/9 on 45% before ASG.

You have EG for 3 more years at $15m
Evans for 4 more years at $11m
Holiday for 4 more years at $10m
Anderson for 3 more years at $8.5m
Davis will be making $9m by the end of his deal plus whatever ridiculous contract extension he gets.
Point is, if you want to keep this young nucleus together, you cannot afford to sign a Greg Monroe to a max deal. Therefore, if you wanted a game changing big man, you either needed to A. hold onto Noel or B. Free yourself of one of the huge deals you have or C. Not spend money on a guy like Evans when you already have a crowded backcourt and instead get a legit center like Monroe.

I think saying Noel is going to be a game changing big man is pretty premature

Monroe is no more of a center than Jason Smith is. He is much better at the 4.

Yea his mom stays on the westbank

Davis is probably going to be big enough to play center next year anyway
