Is Monta overrated by the Mavs fanbase? Seems like most of us defend him from being constantly underrated, rather than actually overrating him... His lack of defense seems to be pretty common knowledge, despite ranking 11th league-wide in steals. And I doubt anyone would be surprised to find out that he commits more turnovers per game than all but 9 players in the league.
But there's still a perception by some folks that he's a malcontent chucker, and that's just entirely off base.
