Monroes ideal position is center. All the teams taht are going after him right now is to play him as center. Thats why he couldnt stay in detroit. Both he and drummond were centers.
Nowhere is this indicating we have a good chance of landing Aldridge. We may be second in line but the Spurs are miles ahead. Also funny ya'll would rather him go to our division rival than a team we played in the playoffs 6 years ago.
I'd be very happy with Aldridge in Houston, or Toronto, or NY, or PHX, or Portland Just keep him the hell away from the Spurs, and to a much lesser extent, the Mavs. Our division doesn't need to get any tougher.

Yea, the large market tons of cap space has really backfired on LA, Dal, NY this year. Gonna be a disaster for atleast two of them.

Well it did say that Houston was close behind. I don't think we'll get him but we're not the long long shot that everyone predicted. Its just going to be tough to beat what the Spurs have to offer.
