Would rather have curry at 1.. he's a true pg.. Monta Ellis aint
neither of them are true points.

but i'd rather have monta, hes more of a playmaker and much much stronger defensively. monta creates matchup problems for the other team on both sides of the ball - especially if he was running the point.

thats if we are choosing 1 and moving the other.

Smart is always checking out everybody’s reactions, guessing at motivations and trying to jump in front of the next potential controversy. The locker room stays calm. The overarching coaching philosophy remains a mystery. Smart moves from brush fire to brush fire, without anybody getting a feel for what he really believes in — other than keeping the peace. The haphazard playing rotations and ever-changing stylistic approaches are the result. San Jose Mercury-News

He is doing what his instincts tell him to, and that is to act like an assistant. A notable example: He has stuck with center Andris Biedrins through some very rough patches this season. “I didn’t go to Latvia and leave my family for three weeks to waste that,” Smart said of his offseason visit with Biedrins. “My kids play basketball; I want to see them, too. But I was in Latvia. And I’m committed to him, to get him up “… “I didn’t throw my three weeks away. My wife’s still mad at me about that.” San Jose Mercury-News

Memphis coach Lionel Hollins said he received the Wolves' promotional package that was sent out to Western Conference coaches to generate support for Kevin Love as a reserve for the Feb. 20 All-Star Game. Hollins, however, passed the package on to his nephew and did not look at the DVD containing the celebrated 30-second "NUMB#RS" promo that spoofed cologne commercials. "I already knew about Kevin Love and what he's done this season before I got that," Hollins said. "His numbers speak for itself." Hollins declined to say if he voted for Love as one of the West's reserve forwards. He admitted sampling the wine that came in a promo package from the Golden State Warriors, who are pushing guard Monta Ellis for a reserve spot. St. Paul Pioneer Press

i'd def take him if its a good trade for us.

hes only 25 years old.

hes shooting 3 pointers at a career best this year at 37%, hes also shooting a career best at the foul line.

we dont need him to be a 1st or 2nd option scoring or handling the ball as much as he does in atlanta.

good defender, good rebounder and a great shot blocker.

he can play either forward position.

Monta gets no respect forreal.. its not like dudes out there playing dirty or talking shit about others... did he not put consistant 30 pts per game or more for about a month straight?
