The Boston Celtics have long been rumored as a potential suitor for the Detroit Pistons' most important free agent this summer: big man Greg Monroe. 

A recent report from Sean Deveney of Sporting News, however, suggests that the business and politics surrounding that prospect make the move ultimately unlikely. Here's Deveney:

If Monroe's back, he can continue to pair with Andre Drummond for a young, hyper-talented front court combo that showed increasing promise in coach Stan Van Gundy's system as last season wore on. July will clarify the future of the man they call Moose, either way.
