Fraschilla Sure Thinks Monte Has An NBA Future
- Thread starter CyCy
- Start date
I think he does too, but I think his payday could be better with another year. I agree with Fran that he could be a 12 year back up. Just go in, run the offense for others while giving the starter a blow.
If he could add 10 lbs of muscle and spend the summer at the Matt Thomas School of Lateral Quickness, he might even do more.

Since we're talking about Monte, that high bullet pass to Georges for the late layup was pretty sick, though I think Georges may have jumped his all time highest to get it.
well last I checked Monte was early 2nd or late 1st. I saw in some mock drafts they even have Perry and Isaiah taylor :twitcy:. Is Isaiah really NBA caliber? Yes he can drive but shouldn't NBA guards be able to shoot a 3.
I guess I didn't think about that, but was Derrick Rose a way better player that led his team to the FF. I would argue that D Rose is a way better shooter even if it isn't from the 3 point.
I just feel like a second round guard that can't shoot a 3 and can only drive isn't as good as a number 1 pick.
I love the people who think he's not an NBA player and shouldn't go just because they want to be selfish and have him on the team next year.
Everyone wants him back next year but you also have to look at it from his perspective. This draft is pretty damn weak as not a lot of freshman are going to come out. All it takes is a promise from one team in the first round to make it worth it for him.

I don't know if Monte is an NBA talent, because I don't watch NBA. But Monte makes his teamates better. There are a lot of great scorers in he NBA who'd love to play with a PG who will get them the ball so they can score.
Monte's a PG. Being quick with a good handle is more important than strength. I'd love to have Monte back because he is an All-American level talent and one of the best PG at ISU ever.

He has played himself into the first round lately. If he keeps this up he's probably gone. Which is fine by me, since it's hard for us to lose if Monte plays this well. I'd much prefer one long run this year in March than two trips to the second round because Monte didn't play well and had to return for his senior year.
Monte is a wonderful college PG..there's such a huge jump in talent between college and NBA. I think MM could make a team but I don't think he will get drafted if he left this year or maybe next too. In today's NBA you need to be able to hit shots from outside consistently..and his game just isn't there yet...just IMO. Think he's def a top 5 college pg right now though.
One of he biggest things that is going to get Monte on the NBA radar is how great he is with the pick and roll, when you see scouting reports talk about guys like Tremble, Paige or Dunn, it mentions they need to get better at those reads. They don't say that about Monte. He has a leg up on the top guys at his position at running one of the most important NBA plays.
Outside shooting can improve with proper guidance and practice in the pros. His form is already pretty good, anyway. Harder to develop good decision-making/instincts, and he's top-tier (for college PGs) in that regard.
Thank you for proving my point.
BTW, I guess a player has never developed his game in the NBA. Only in college.
