The good news first. No shocker here, but Greg Monroe is scheduled to sign a one-year deal worth $2.2 million with the Toronto Raptors. The bad news is roughly the same - that Greg is signing a contract with the Raptors.
Monroe has skills, and Danny Ainge knows that all too well. Greg had a history of being a significant menace when he faced Boston. After Greg was waived by the Suns last season, Ainge didn't hesitate to pick him up. The move may have been as much to keep Monroe out of rival hands as to bolster the Boston bench.
