1 on 1 matchup..Monta or Baron....Who Gets Pwned?!?!?!
I know this post is premature seeing as the dubs wont see the clips till mid november but fanposts have been a little slow...plus I've been thinking about this since baron left for the d-bag clips. I dont think anyone has posted anything like this but if its been discussed already, my apologies.
I think, with some certainty that Baron will get pwned (or at least I would want him to). Too many times I've seen guards blow by baron. He has no lateral speed and its something Monta can exploit. I remember Baron in some post game interview last season saying that Monta "frustrates" him in practice. Monta is way to quick for him and can pull up anywhere within 20ft.
On the other hand, baron might get the best of monta. Monta's defense is still something left to be desired. Despite barons bumb knee and age, he is still pretty quick and if he get the step on someone its pretty much curtains. Yes baron can pull up and also has 3pt range (which in my opinion has always been streaky). Can monta defend the perimeter? Not certain... my gut says no, but I spend alot of time being mesmerized by his offense rather than paying attention to his defense. Lets no forget about barons post up skills. He was the only post threat we had last season and from what I can remember, he was pretty good at it. Im pretty sure monta cant defend the post against bulky pgs.
I suppose the arguement could be made for either guy humiliating the other in a highlight reel. But I'm also wondering whether we will see much baron v. monta. Im assuming baron will guard monta but will monta gaurd baron...probably not, I could see stack taking on the responsibilty.
My fantasy: monta breaks his ankles with the crossover...stops and looks at baron while he is trying to collect himself on the ground...then busts in his face!!!!! ROTFL, LMAO

Baron will post up Monte, but at the same time Monta will be able to run
Baron can not stay in fornt of Monta. As Baron said last year the teams fast break was actually a 1 man fast break called Monta. Baron hardly ever made it down the court after Monta took off. This is one are awe not miss Baron in the open court. It is in the half court we will miss him more. As it is I expect Monte to out score Baron whent hey meet.

...Who Gets Pwned?
What does that mean? Is it a chess term?
by Tony.psd on Aug 16, 2008 5:21 PM PDT 0 recs
A corruption of the word “Owned.” This originated in an online game called Warcraft, where a map designer misspelled “owned.” When the computer beat a player, it was supposed to say, so-and-so “has been owned.”
Instead, it said, so-and-so “has been pwned.”
It basically means “to own” or to be dominated by an opponent or situation, especially by some god-like or computer-like force.
“Man, I rock at my job, but I still got a bad evaluation. I was pwned.”

lol
after finding out it came from warcraft it makes me not want to use that word ever.
So I don't have a signature well these words would do! Who knew that upgrades can have downgrades too!

Baron
would beat Monta, just cause of strength and experience.

In a game to 11...
Monta jumps out to a lead of 10-0.
Then Baron thinks to himself, this is kind of like the fourth quarter, right? Alright, maybe I should start playing hard.
Baron goes back up 11-10.
Baron has the ball for the last shot. Monta slips on defense, leaving Baron an opening. Instead he decides to turn back to the three point line, jump around in place, then fire a three. He swishes it, and wins in style.

I would have to give Baron the upper hand on this...
He plays better D than Monta, sadly. He also has 3 range and massive hops. His post play is above-average and even though his shot selection is mediocre at best, he’ll score on Monta. He’s too powerful off the dribble and quick enough to go around Monta’s D.

By default
Monta would win without even having to play cause Baron would be on the bench in a suit all hurt lol.

Baron can post up
monta, but monta has a quickness advantage. I am really excited for this matchup it will be tough. we need to see how well monta plays the point and how much better he has gotten from last year. Monta should run circles around baron but if baron tries hella hard on defense.. yes he does have lateral quickness, monta will have a tough time.

Depend on Monta's improvement
Baron will definately use his strength against Monta because it will be tough for him to use his speed against Monta. But it also depends on how much Monta can improve at the point and his defense. It will be a close and exciting match up no doubt.

Baron will spot Montay a C and then ice the game while Montay tries to spell cat.

Both not good at Defense...
They’ll light up each other up for 30 points each. Baron will just take 10 more shots to do it.
Put a little mustard on it

Luckily we dont play the Clipps to mid Nov.
So this means we will have an actual storyline behind the game that could make it meaningful for both, or one. For instance if we are both off to great or good starts, or if we are they aren’t or reverse(unlikely). Or if neither of us are then it’ll be a pretty meaningless game other than to find out if Baron’s new team or Maggette’s new team is better. But if we are both in the mix of things that early then both Monta and Baron will have to elevate their games and it could be a showdown.
I say “luckily” because that means Monta will have some experience under his belt to show off, CP3 opening night. If we’re talking about a 1 on 1 halfcourt game than it’s all about scoring and D, but if we are talking a game( which we are) it also comes down to who can get their teamates involved and whose teamates wil rise to the occasion. Maggette for 1 and Jax Beans Al and Buike, and Nellie, are gonna wanna stick it to Baron and the Clipps.
Its also hard to say who gets owned because its pretty likely that Baron has better overall stats, except perhaps points, and the W’s win the game. So although Baron had better stats, didnt he get “pwned”?
