How good was monta ellis monta ellis highlights monta ellis highschool highlights monta ellis warriors highlights monta ellis and steph curry monta ellis trade monta ellis bucks highlights monta ellis mavericks highlights monta ellis pacers highlights monta ellis we believe warriors monta ellis
Your video was horrible.. Monta Ellis was Elite.. just never had a chance to be surrounded by good pieces
Lmao thanks ❤️
His money strait he spent over 10 years in the league that's good profit if he save it right.
right
Yo, can we chill with the hate? The man took his free time to put together this video. He shows MAD love to Monte
Naw monta was just a volume scorer
17.8 ppg 3.5 rpg 4.5 apg
career averages
Dude was criminally underrated 🔥
Dude was a walking highlight reel, was going full speed 100% of the time
Check his percentages and you'll find out why. Dude hogged the ball jacking up shots
@@slickboxingidentityveritas1932
He wouldn’t be the first or last player to be called a “ball hog”
When you’re the first option you’re supposed to take shots and score 🤷🏽♂️
I still think he was a walking bucket
@@d.wil2x His efficiency was never great during his whole career no matter where he was
@@slickboxingidentityveritas1932
Well then lemme break it down to you like this. Luka and Monta Ellis both have the same exact career shooting percentages
45% FG 31% 3pt
You can say he wasn’t efficient..but it’s not like he was absolute shxt. He was a player who could get you 20-25 points on a nightly basis and occasionally explode for 30-40+
Baron Davis Al harrington were not no names Baron was a top 3 draft selection and was a beast for years and stephen jackson was cold too and could score on anyone they were not energy guys 😂😂
Crazy saying bdavis was an energy guy lol, no one wanted to guard him from like 2005-2010
Ridiculous
Yeah idk what I was talking about tbh lol old video
@@swishcountyproductionsunfortunately it’s destroyed the credibility of your video.
Doesn’t get enough credit for his playmaking, almost 5 apg for his career... maybe should have played PG and dominated smaller guards like Steph does scoring wise.
Agree man I said this years ago
Monta was definitely a decade too early. He would be at least 28-30pts with 8 assist a game right now
🤣🤣🤣 5 apg is terrible for a pg...
@@jordensk13 I think the point is that he probably would've gotten more assists if he played PG.
You all seem to be forgetting that he could not shoot. And what do you all mean if he played today? The modern game is what killed his career.
Monta was an absolute monster on the court 🔥
Definitely man!!
I feel that monta was a pretty solid player and Honestly I feel that he still can compete with the best now
Monta Ellis and Louis Williams dominated High School basketball in Mississippi and Georgia respectively at around the same time. Both standouts packed their respective home and away gyms.
Monta Elllis had it all
Dude was such a baller. He was awesome on the Mavs
Monta is underrated and should have made an all star squad one year
Crazy he didnt wow
He was a walking bucket
But it was same for other team
I remember that 09-10 year. I was upset for him.
I'm still pissed he never made an all star team
just shows how good the all stars back then, they were tmac,kobe and son basically franchise players.
You have to be out of your damn mind to think that Monte Ellis was not a great player. First, he was one of the fastest players in the league. Hence the nickname, "Mississippi Missle". Monte could shoot the paint off the ball and if he wasn't that good why in the would did GS give him a $66 Million dollar contract, over 6 years, to secure him. He also outshined some of the top players in the league head to head. Players like The black Mumba, Kobe "Bean" Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Durant to name a few. So stop hating on Monte. He had handles and could cross you up with the best of them. Why don't you just ask some of the players in the league and get their opinion on playing against him.
Good at certain seasons but not great
Monta Ellis have it all.
Except defense, passing, size, leadership and success.
size? isnt he 6'2?
He was actually a decent defender, just his team's defensive stat hurt his defensive reputation. And he was a monster despite his size
Man I HATED playing against Monta Ellis in 2K back in the day. Dude was annoying af to guard lol.
the GOAT NBA 2K lay up package in the 360 era
Monte Ellis was elite you left out the part where he led the league in most points scored at the Rim and as you stated he is a under sized guard very under rated Player and clutch
Monta was no doubt an incredible scoring talent, have to give the full story for his rise and his fall doesn’t mean I’m not a fan of him. Thanks for your feedback!
He’s someone who I think would be even better now. In today’s systems he’d either have the green light to flat out score or be an awesome 6 man
Monta was my DAWG!!! He was one of my fav underrated players
A Chris kaman video would be cool. Elite numbers.elton brand. Emeka okafor. Carlos boozer. Interesting ideas
In the end though it worked out, if he would’ve stayed with Golden State no telling how many championships could’ve been won.
At the last min he said fuck that🤣🤣
Poor Monta, the league never gave him a chance
I remember the We Believe Warriors, they were so fun to watch
Crazy fun team, don’t see them like that anymore!
@@swishcountyproductions They're still fun to watch, but the We Believe Warriors just had different vibes
Monta was my favorite player. Relentless atacking the rim with a smooth jelly pack
u tripping
Thank you terese
love these vids bro, i remember when my sixers were selling off the whole team to begin "the process" there were rumblings about them signing Monta Ellis to sort of be a "tank commander" but Sam Hinkie wanted a legit G league team to ensure they had a top pick lol
some requests? Tyreke Evans, Josh Smith, Carlos Boozer, Brandon Roy, Yi Jianlian....also might be cool to do a recap of the Lebron-Deshawn Stevenson drama where DS was calling Lebron "overrated". just some thoughts
All some great suggestions man, glad u enjoyed!
100% agree with your takeaway. When I hear the name monte Ellis. I immediately think 2 things. 1: decent ball hog style player. 2: the mavs series
With a lot of good NBA players being free agents in today's game, the Sixers should try to get a lot of players such as jr smith Carmelo, Isaiah Thomas and Monte and ochre for people that can still play and will benefit the team
If cam Thomas can drop 40's just imagine what Ellis would do and his game log is probably more impressive then just saying his season average
can you do a video on joe Johnson?
Definitely man, great idea!
Anthony morrow would be a good one to do
Who you guys think is winning it all this year?
Clippers
Nets
So monta Ellis player on a terrible warriors team and was constantly hitting buckets ….was my favorite player and it sucks because that may have been the worse role players I’ve ever seen and they fought every night
Fire man
I really wished him and Jennings did something with the bucks :(
I remember when the mavs got him and I was so hype and then I watched how fun he was and loved him but slowly understood why the warriors let him go
People think only A.I. and d. Rose were the only elite guards to be forced to compete with bums and journeymen Monta had to endure playing with bums, too.
Steph and Monta good friends actually.. and it was Monta chose to leave they actually chose Steph to trade but Monta said a rebuild with Steph was better than a rebuild him.. just a fact check..
Even though he is one of my favorite players all time, you might be right about him not being elite level.
However we cant deny that he could kill anyone any day
6’3” shooting guards have NO chance in the nba. The list of failed 6’3” shooting guards is LONG
Basketball is about getting the ball in the hoop and Monta Ellis did wat he was suppose to do on subpar teams
Damn good video bro
Preciate that man
I didnt want to be like kobe or mike ...i wanted to be like Monta he was quick handles smart and athletic he could finish and shot ...and defense wasnt elite but he held his own..best 2 way in the mid 2000s and early 2010s
🔥🔥
He had a solid career. Hope he saved his money.
This is my argument for LeBron over Jordan. Many good players Ellis, Anthony, Howard have just been lost to the style of play in these last 3 quick eras of bball. LeBron has dominated in the ISO (Jordan era),The Beautiful Game (Spurs style) and 3&D Small Ball era (Warriors) with the ability to change his game. I don’t think MJ would shoot over 30% from three regardless. This would have taken MJ off the court today unless he pulled a Ron Harper and ran the point with 2 other snipers to feed. I question MJ defense would translate today because guys are just more skills, bigger and more athletic. While in the 90s he was more imposing, a Kawhi, KG,PG or Tatum would have no problem giving him buckets like Bird did.
spot on
Jordan would shoot better than league average on 3s, would immediately slot as the most athletic two way guard, while best scorer and most skilled player the game no doubt.. dude would average 40 in today’s game
@@Switcheroo1that's your opinion. He was never even close to a good shooter and it only average 3 point percentage was when they moved the three point line up
@@TheGamingShogunlebron worked on his game because the league started shooting more he wasnt great at shooting 3s at first either… jordan never played in a 3 point shooting heavy era so well never know if he would have worked on his shooting or not
@@jsmokee7933 it doesn't really matter LeBron became one and Jordan didn't.
monta ellis was better than curry...the warriors just never gave him the perfect system like they did for curry
Come on guys bless who’s ever little (Heart) made this video I’m sure he meant well. Lol.
Monta Ellis have it all 😂
Wazzup!
Awesome video, you explained it very well. The older I get, the more i see how a black hole this guy was, but man..when I watched him on those Warriors teams, the man was living highlight! Love him! But yea, you are right. He wasnt that good.
how do you do the research and still come off as a casual lmfaoo
Matt Barnes or delonte West please
Really good and unique ideas man, thanks!
How good was Michael redd actually plz
8️⃣3️⃣3️⃣
Disagree
Do amire stoudmire
Disrespectful
L profile picture
League is run by “ undersized “ players
Monta was my last favorite player to watch...
He was a Russell Westbrook before Russell if he would have had a team built around him where the ball is in his hands from beginning to end he could have a triple-double as well or close to it average wise.
Really bad take. Good effort into the video, but just a terrible take. Monta was a good player, but could've been exceptional had he been in the right situation.
Kinda agree rlly old video lol
Warrior’s almost chose monta over curry for franchise player he was nice tho but not better then Steph
Selfish ball bigger with empty stats that didn't shake Steph Curry's hand.
Monta was a net negative
Mississippi stand up Monta a legend down here
