As the Golden State Warriors media day slowly approaches we know one thing that has changed. Monta Ellis now see's that he can play with Stephen Curry in the backcourt and they can win.
In an excellent sit-down interview with Sam Amick from FanHouse, Ellis admits that he was wrong when he said last year that the two guards could not play together and the Warriors be successful at winning games.
"Us together? No," Ellis said. "Can't. We just can't. ... Just can't."Ellis also admits that his wife told him he was wrong right after he said it.
"She told me as soon as I said it that it was wrong. I didn't let her know at the time that she was right, but she always told me, 'You and Steph can do it. Y'all can do it. Just play together and don't let the outside world destroy y'all because you can win if they put pieces around you.'"I am sure part of Ellis' excitement is the change in ownership as well. It's no surprise for him to admit in the story that his relationship with the ownership has been somewhat strenuous.
For the first time in a long time it appears that this training camp may not be as newsworthy as they have been in the past and if your a fan of the Warriors that is good news for you.
Unless, the the new ownership takes over and sends a certain head coach back to Maui.
