Your point guard needs to be able to score in today's nba. . . .

I've come around to this view. Yeah, in theory, it would be better to get a great point guard who has the shooting and defensive skills that fit next to Monta at the 2. Only problem is that very few, if any, of those guys exist and are available. Much easier (and more cap-friendly) to get a 2 that fits well next to Monta.
As noted, tons of today's PGs are scorers, and most of our O runs through Monta anyway (or it did pre-RR). So while conceptually Monta at the 1 may be objectionable, it's better than the alternative at this point.
