I actually agree with your sentiment on point overvaluation, but disagree with your analysis on Monahan's game outside of points (not that he doesn't have tones of room to improve).
My comment about him being ahead of Bennett was not merely points based. He was far less sheltered than Bennett in his first year and was a more effective player overall IMO. Not sheltered to the wing, put up against tougher opposition quicker than Bennett has been.
