Buy:Greg Monroe, PF/C, Pistons: Monroe: Monroe was drafted a round or two too low on average, and in season two he has a become a huge focus of the Pistons' offense (15 points), while proving an excellent source of rebounds too (9 rebounds). Not a great source of blocks, but assists (3 p/g) and steals (1 p/g) a bonus.Al Harrington, PF/C, Nuggets: The frontcourt is thin in Denver, with only Timofey Mozgov, Harrington, Chris Anderson and Nene around, leaving Harrington to pick up plenty of minutes (24). 16 points, 2 threes and 2 steals per game is very handy at the end of your bench.Ryan Anderson, PF/C, Magic: With Bass out of town Anderson is playing serious minutes (33 per game) even with Big Baby around. Anderson is averaging 20 points, 7 rebounds, 1 block and 4 threes per game so far this season, and there's no reason to think his impressive performances won't continue.

Boston 96, Detroit Pistons 85: Porous defense sinks Pistons again
A 12-point road loss at Indy. A 16-point thumping at the hands of the Cavs at home. And finally a 96-85 beating at the hands of the previously winless Celtics on Friday night.
