He was 5'2 his freshman year of HS, then 5'7 his soph year, then 5'11 his junior year, before settling in at 6'3 by the time he got to college

Someone (I think BHZ) mentioned his low usage% during the We Believe seasons, so I guess I need to revisit that.

Yep. Lowest usage rate and highest shooting percentages were during the We Believe run, and the following year where the Warriors won 49 games (IIRC) and didnt make the playoffs.

I think Monta gets a lot of flack because of how well Steph has developed, and how much Monta went downhill after leaving golden state.
Monta can put the ball in the bucket, and he's a good playmaker.
What I'm interested in seeing is how he does with a pass first PG like Calderon. We'll see.
This Dallas team may be good enough to be a fringe playoff team, but most likely a first round exit.
NK. Who in the hell points out how good Monta is? The only time he's ever mentioned is when people want to bring up my quotes from like three years ago.
Monta'a biggest issue post-GSW is that he played next to a player very similar to him. He can be a ball-stopper. They both needed the ball to be effective because neither were excellent facilitators for others, like a Paul, Rondo, or Nash. Donnie and Cuban are hoping Calderon can fit that mold.
There aren't any ball stoppers on Dallas right now before the signing. As long as Monta knows when to give up the ball, and has his touch still, he'll be okay. I still believe he has a good mid range jumper.

Didn't see it mentioned but I think it's really cool of KG to wear #2 to honor Malik Sealy.

A teammate/mentor of his in minnesota who died in a car crash on a late night in Minny after KG's birthday party I think. I think it was in his 3rd year in the L, or something like that.

remember when you said Monta was a guard version of Dirk + Wade, though?I think Monta gets a lot of flack because of how well Steph has developed, and how much Monta went downhill after leaving golden state.

I know you're remedial and all but he wasn't an unknown player. He was an all-American at a storied program and NBA lottery pick. He also starred in a big budget movie with Whoopi.
I keep forgetting a lot you dudes were born in like 94

kind of surprising to see a NBA fan not know about Malik Sealy.

Exactly...dudes are going to come with cute little remarks to deflect from them not knowing ****...but there's no way you can consider yourself an nba fan and not know who he was unless you are young
