Is Monta worth $66 Million?
Say what you will about Monta, but I don’t think he’s worth the price. He’s not the guy to lead the Warriors deep into the playoffs (don’t even think about the Finals, it’s the West). He went from making $700K a year to $10 million a year…that’s a lot of coin to give someone for just scoring points. He’ll never be a point guard, will not be able to replace Baron’s leadership skills, doesn’t play defense and now hurts himself
out of season and lies about it. There were no other offers for Monta so the Warriors didn’t really know what his market value was, they basically just bid against themselves and wasted money. Monta could have been signed for $50 Million, which is still a bucket load of money for anyone, but especially someone that is not the leader of the team.
