A two-big, Al Horford/Greg Monroe, frontcourt is worth a shot

In out Twitter poll, participants chose Greg Monroe over Thomas Robinson (59%-to-41%) to fill the Celtics final roster spot. Monroe is now on a 10-day contract with Boston. In his first stint with Boston in the 2017-18 season, Moose only saw limited action. That would change if Brad Stevens decides to experiment with an occasional two-big frontcourt of Al Horford and Greg.

Al is at his best at the power forward spot and Greg is an old fashion low-post center. Kendrick Perkins had a long career as a low-post guy - started 78 games in the Celtics 2007-08 Championship season - and averaged 24.
