That might be a double, or triple dribble. Not positive though

It is a double dribble mixed with a lot of traveling.

Its neither double dribble nor traveling. His left foot was his pivot foot. He can spin in circles all day as long as he never lifts that foot before he dribbles and drives to the basket.

While not trying to take anything away from Monty, that's a SF out maneuvering a 7 footer in bad position.

Well, true, but still a very nice "teaching moment". And pretty cool.

Definitely, and probably much more effective than if Eric Gordon had blown by Lopez.

Since the salary cap was instituted prior to the 1984–85 season,[4] the NBA has prohibited teams from employing a player-coach.[5] The ruling was established to avoid the possibility that a team would circumvent the cap by signing a player as a player-coach, as coaches' salaries are not counted under the cap.

His name is Monty, not Kobe. Which means he surely traveled.
