I know I am late to the party but here are my thoughts on Monta.

One of the most exciting players in the NBA. Combined with the GSW home fans, watching a Monta show @ Oracle is always a treat.

Great scorer. Super quick, nobody can stay in front of him. Since he is such a great scorer, people feel that his defensive skills are lacking. He does a good job of staying in from of his man when he tries, but of course he has to carry the scoring load so he doesn't try all the time (as most big time scorers).

I LOVE watching him play. Love. Has really become more of an efficient scorer this season compared to other seasons.

I do question what his ultimate goal in this league is. I don't know him but I wonder how much longer he can be the #1 scorer on a bad team year in year out. I wonder if he will bolt sooner or later.

But with him and Baron, I loved those days.

Monta is the real deal. Let's all jus' admit he's one of the rising stars and knockin' on the door of elite status.

Make sure you get a chance to listen to his interview if you haven't already.

edit: I have yet to see the man make a game winning shot either. He has had his chances at them.

I'm not sure either could do what the other does if they straight up switched teams. I think Monta is deadlier though.

What makes you think the Spurs would be as successful if Monta were in the spot that Manu was in?
