You have the wrong idea about Monta he is a high IQ player.

He thinks he is Dwayne Wade minus the rings - are you sure about the high IQ thing?

I can't see how we'll end up with Ellis, and I know this is a minority opinion, but I'd rather have Ellis than Bargnani. Ellis, as I've said before, is not someone to build around, and he needs intelligent coaching, and, yeah, at times he's a lightweight head case but . . . even with all of his downside, he can play defense, sometimes he can play real team ball, and he knows how to score. I'd be delighted, for example, to see him replace JR Smith.

I see some sense to the Bargnani trade and I hope it works out but for it to work, he's going to have to play better ball than he's played recently and his body has to hold up. Ellis, on the other hand, can play, today and probably tomorrow.

If you think we are getting Ellis, keep dreaming. He turn down an 11 million option and he going to take a 3mil from us?

Ellis is in for a rude awakening. I'd bet anything that he gets offered less than $11M and I'd bet that he gets maybe half that.
