Monta Ellis: Where Is The Former Golden State Warriors Star?

[@HoopReports]

In 2009-10, was Monta Ellis one of the top all-star snubs in NBA history? (25.5 PPG, 5.3 AST, 4.0 RBS)

[@carrandoholmesii9710]

Yessir! 💯🔥🤷🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️😎

[@IsaiasMGPalafox]

Got snubbed for the All-Star that year imo. 🚫🧢

[@marialaarni678]

Yes

[@Kermit_T_Frog]

Monta Ellis probably holds the record for empty stats. The WORST high volume low efficiency stats in the last 15 years. A guy with a NEGATIVE box score plus/minus. A BELOW AVERAGE WS/48 minutes. A NEGATIVE Offensive Rating/Defensive Rating differential. In short, there is not an advanced stat that has him as even an average player.

[@mysterirhys]

@@Kermit_T_Frog in fairness, nobody was really looking at efficiency back then. Warriors made the right choice tho.

The Mississippi Bullet. I was hurt when Lacob traded him because he was a top 10 scorer and Bogut was hurt. Of course it was for the best but it was hard watching someone with a peak that resembled Iverson get traded… I’m still rooting for ya brotha. I had many good nights watching you play.

I remembered that people were booing, and now they're cheering. I was a fan of Ellis, but I knew he was on some other BS saying he didn't want to play with Steph, and Steven Jackson agreed with him. Bogut came in, and I was elated when Andre Iguadala left Denver to play in Oakland; I new that was a true change. Before nobody wanted to come to Oakland, or if they left Oakland they'd be better.

[@waikit828]

Tbh I liked it when he was traded for Bogut. He always made some head-scratching fouls when game was on the line. He was a great mid-range shooter but his BBIQ was def not at Steph’s level. However, he was part of the We Believe and I always wish him the best!

[@rickydornberger4771]

You know to start this millennia our drafting was terrible but we have had some unbelievably good draft picks the last 15 years or so.It’s a shame Monte couldn’t have stayed he was special when healthy.

[@edmonsoriano3704]

if he didn't leave curry will not bloom and will not be a leader so no championships for GSW its good trade.

[@nicholaskorner2258]

Warriors clearly made the right choice in trading him... But I loved Montana as a player!!!!

[@Danieltphan]

He’s a PSA coach in Dallas. I see him all the time

[@HoopReports]

That's awesome man! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Danieltphan]

@DJLEO yep

[@Danieltphan]

@DJLEO lol I didn’t know that

[@thesexyskywalker3283]

Neat. I appreciate everything he did for the Mavs back in the day. Wish they could have gotten one more ring.

[@iMoRTalBeaSt]

Now he wants to make a basketball comeback looks interesting

[@franz289]

Great player caught in the business of basketball. The Warriors just hired Jerry West to construct the team. This trade was not popular and Lacob got boos at Chris Mullin night. This move got the Warriors Bogut and the most crucial of all, they moved Klay from small forward to Off guard leaving Steph at the point. They got Green, Barnes, Ezili at the draft and the rest is history.

[@glenmarkgregorio8167]

Mad respect to Monta. 🙂👍💙💛

[@BabyJoker21]

Great video #Ellis is one of my favorite players … keep up the great work 🔥🔥🔥

[@jaredklein5173]

monta has the most gracious layup i'd seen on my era and that makes me a warrior fan

[@mylenanguyen2950]

I was looking for a video like this thanks

[@HoopReports]

You're welcome 😊

[@ginborgho]

Biggest decision warriors made jeez imagine otherwise

[@coldtruth4879]

You’re so underrated

[@caitlinwang2723]

Omg fire vid!

[@HoopReports]

Thanks Caitlin!

[@nmarkert01]

I used to LOVE watching this dude play.

[@mackpark3153]

I love the shoving match between him and Kobe but Monta was all around good some people might have forgot

[@elizabethlilia1903]

I wish I can go back to 2009🥺🥺🥺

[@iamnotyourbuddyGUY]

I was super upset about it when it happened.

[@coffeedaddy5694]

I think Ellis would thrive as a backup guard for the current Warriors. I dunno. So many what ifs, could'vr and would've.

[@fredwebb7888]

I was looking for this comment bro legacy would of been crazy.

[@FriendsVsWild]

Could you make a video on if Damian Lillard on the dubs would be good or detrimental? I think would be like Monta and Steph, two guards don’t make a right

[@HoopReports]

Hey! Already have it for next week my man!

[@Brendan_M_Brown]

I wonder how it would be a trio of Steph, Klay, and Monta !

Video: Monta Ellis Twist: _Real Topic_ 8:38 .. When NBA players do camps,.. why they not inviting *ME?..* don't they see *MY* talent?.. I would've created.. a video about *ME.* Haha you got me there. -I wish they would, you deserve it.-

[@hoopsdata8710]

Hahaha that was nice

[@Kelvs762]

I think he is back thats why im here 😱😱😱😱😱

[@TheGhostManN]

He slipped so far because of a knee injury finishing his high school career

[@Chiyenworkout]

Lillard make official trade request to Warriors. Would you share your thoughts on the video. Beside Warrior, Knicks, Lakers, & Heat are team that interest Dame

[@TruuJones]

I was so HOT when they traded Monta, I mean like almost to the point of quitting cheering for the team ever again. I would've loved if Monta got resigned one of those years to win a chip with the team

[@markcabral3782]

Thought you'd mention the we believe team taking down number 1 seed mavs. Also, the way you said diogu was pretty funny lol. Still a good video though.

[@giantchamp415]

Why J Rich don't never get love. That dunk though. The one that he won the slam dunk contest with. The we believe team he anchored. He doesn't get any love.

[@michaelangelolucman6442]

Monta,richardson,baron davis is my idol.

[@XabzintheNBAGuru]

If u ever went ; how good was d rose

[@akihiro7149]

I hope he plays one more season

[@sam-b6l8g]

he won’t unfortunately

[@Larsinator9019]

where is the Moped part of the story???

[@ilovemeris2213]

Monta ellis wife is a beautiful black queen and they say black athletes don't marry black women 🤣

[@OcelGuy]

funny how if steph was healthy, he would have been traded

[@tellthetruthg]

Monte was dead on right as a back court him and Curry 1 or 2 guard wouldn’t work . How could they guard the other teams back court ?

[@foreign_maddogmamorris809]

Ion see the problem i think Ellis knew already steph woulda been the guy but didn't want it to end

[@OaksOaks]

Yes, Monta knew they were too small defensively. Monta and Curry were leading the nba for backcourt scoring. Offensively they were fine.
