Detroit Pistons coach Stan van Gundy believes that Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond are an "ideal pairing" for the team.

Stan van Gundy has described Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond as "an ideal pairing" for the Detroit Pistons.

Monroe is a restricted free agent, but the team's average scoring in the 2013-14 season was higher when the duo were on the court together.

The recently-appointed coach told the team's website: "I think it is an ideal pairing. If I look at just the film I've watched now and looking at the numbers, you would say that Greg and Andre together were great offensively.

"That was a great combination on the offensive end of the floor, especially when the three guys around them were shooters, more conventional perimeter types. That worked very, very well. Now, it didn't work very well defensively. I think it puts a lot of responsibility on Greg Monroe to have to guard out on the perimeter.

"But I think there are things we can do in terms of schemes and things that would make it a little easier on Greg to make that unit better defensively and then take advantage of the offensive end of the floor."

The Pistons finished the 2013-14 season with a 29-53 record.
