I agree.

Would Monroe be one of the "stupid players"? I'm just asking because I haven't seen too much of him. I would love to have his size and potential, but if he is just another low BBIQ player like O.J. Mayo, then I definitely don't want to commit to him. The players that need to play for RC need to be high IQ people that can think rather than rely on athletic ability alone.

Nah, he's definitely not a low BBIQ guy, just not a very good defender... There's always a chance he could be coached-up in the right situation, but he's shown nothing so far in his career that indicates he'll ever be much of a rim protector.
