    I don't think they would benefit from each other. That said, Monta's game is sick. Whoever thinks he is not good or a scrub because he doesn't shoot 70% is a homer that only watches stats outside of the rockets

    sorry OP, still looks like knee-jerk to me. The bucks were just lucky.

    Did you even watch the first time we played the Bucks when Monta went 5-19? Hell, last night he needed 24 shots to get 27 points, and that was with a season-high 11 FTAs.

    Dude's got a lot of talent, but it doesn't translate to good basketball. His shot selection is just atrocious.

    Oh, field goal percentage. What an adorable, quaint little statistic.

    Steph Curry would be the ideal fit next to Harden. We need to trade Lin for him

    God Monta Ellis is terrible. One of my least favorite players in the NBA.

    Sorry, I don't think a 23% three point shooter who plays zero defense is the right guy to pair with Harden.

    Faith in CF has been restored a little with all dem 1star votes LOL.

    Monta hits a prayer and you wanna build your backcourt around one of the most inefficient 2 guards? Please.
