Raptors:
Lowry/Stuckey/Stone
Derozan/Ross
Fields/Acy/Novak
Monroe/Amir
Val/Gray
lose 5 Million off cap and for a year shorter (21Mil altogether), while filling our holes and taking a draft pick. Albeit we created a hole at SF, but signing Carlos Delfino for the MLE would settle the hole neatly for a while.
Pistons:
Knight/Siva
Singler/KCP
Gay/Villaneuva
Smith/Jerebko
Drummond/Kravtsov
Release a bad contract (Stuckey), and trade for a quasi-Star player that would fit much better next to Smith. Gay - Smith - Drummond will tear opposing front courts UP.@Chr1st1anL

My guess is this means the Pistons wouldn't give up positive assets for Gay.
It also means that the top wings (Iggy and Smith) are now off the market. Should open up the offers for Gay if Ujiri is considering moving him.

Pistons finished year at 105.6 DefRtg.
Season opener to January 31st (Calderon trade) they were 103.6 (basically middle of the league).
Monroe finished the year 105 DefRtg.
Season opener to January 31st (Calderon trade) he was 102.7.
(All above stats from stats.nba.com)
Looking at his career, (stats from Basketball-Reference.com):
he has improved his defensive win share every year in the league (1.9, 2.7, 3.2). Not sure what it would have looked like prior to Calderon trade.
**BTW not taking any shots at Calderon here. Just know that the Pistons defense really collapsed after that trade**

I would love Monroe on this team. Monroe - Val - and Amir off the bench and you have locked down an Elite 3 Big man rotation.
Now about moving Derozan to the three, I can't see that working. His efficiency mark is the post against smaller 2s, and he loses that advantage as a 3. Plus I cant see him defending the bigger bodies in the NBA.The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!

Two fairly important signings this afternoon: Carl Landry to Sacramento (who overpaid but not too strongly) and Jarrett Jack to Cleveland, and the Jack signing is pretty much where I say "yeah, Cleveland's making playoffs" and officially bet my monies on Toronto not making playoffs this year, because Jarrett Jack is a GREAT sign for Cleveland - he's the #1 bench option at both PG and SG for them.
