    I wasn't aware he was down last season, but I was afraid some teams would be hesitant after he decided not to go into the bubble. That's unfortunate, but certainly a possibility.

    he's had injury issues for a while and wasn't jumping off the page last year. someone will pick him up to help fix their own injury issues soon enough, i'm sure.

    He'll unretire after the All-Star break if there's an opening on one of the front horses.. especially if that team is in or near NY.

    My takeaway is that we want to play nice with Monta Ellis’ agent so are expressing interest in a “workout” solely as a favor.

    Rich Paul vs. Morey

    [​IMG]

    Gonna get interesting as the fines start piling up and if/how Paul can put pressure on Morey to get a deal done.

    how long has Monte been gone?

    Already been the star, and not worried about that?

    :Laugh:

    acting like his addition will put us over the top into the infinity realm of all time great teams lol

    Why, who else does he rep? Never heard of him, not that me not having done that means anything.

    At least we get to see Morey get a taste of the medicine the monster/prick he created in Houston …. pulled on them last year to force his way out.

    Yeah, I tried looking him up but couldn’t find if he reps any other NBA players.

    It’s just the only plausible explanation I can think of. I can’t envision a scenario in which Rob and co legitimately think that (A) Ellis can still contribute and (B) Ellis fits a current need for our roster.
