Monta Ellis to Choose Team - Charlotte Among Them

How many titles did they win?

 

Who is going to be the Eric Snow out of Kemba and Ellis?

 

Since we don't have a Mutumbo to cover up for the defenses mismatches that happens when you have 2 small guards??

 

 

I was not making any comparisons to the Bobcats/Hornets, I was simply pointing out there was another successful "small" backcourt.

 

...and they may not have won a title but they went to the finals.

And won 1 game. You also forgot to mention the other elements that made that work for 2 or 3 years.

Mutombo being a major reason they could do that.

People just look at highlights and don't pay attention till the whole game.

 

 

Ellis couldn't make it work with Curry or Jennings how is he going to work with Kemba????

 

 

The best match for him is to go to a team with a taller PG like (76ers with MCW, or Pistons with Knight).

David Aldridge of NBA.com says it's down to Atlanta and Dallas.

Praise God!!!

I hope he goes to Dallas. Don't want him in the division plus ATL already got Milsap.

However, is Atlanta trying to get both Jennings and Ellis or just one of the two... because I have seen reports that they are going after both...

It would be stupid to sign both, they already showed that they can't play together.

I think teams can contact but they cant offer.  Tyreke was restricted too but the Pelicans already started talking to him, though they are talking about a sign and trade now

 

Well, that's what I was getting at...  What has changed over this period since talks could commence?  I'm pretty sure our FO has a good idea of what the level of interest is and yet, we've heard nothing about visits, calls, etc. with other teams.  So, I'm assuming there isn't much to "wait on," as the article suggested.

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
