Monta Ellis Potential Landing Spots




Monta Ellis was released by the Indiana Pacers last week. Ellis played for the Pacers for the past two seasons. Through his two seasons with the Pacers, he averaged 11.1 points per game.

Monta Ellis is 31 years old; he still has a lot to offer to a playoff team.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are one of those teams who could use his abilities. Ellis could be the scorer off the bench the Cavaliers desperately need. Kyle Korver and Iman Shumpert were nonexistent in the NBA Finals.

Another playoff team who could benefit from his services is the San Antonio Spurs. Danny Green has been inconsistent this past season, Manu Ginobili is getting up their age. Monta Ellis signing to the San Antonio Spurs would improve their chances of beating the Golden State Warriors.

The Los Angeles Clippers would be another great landing spot for Monta Ellis. The Clippers need a good scorer/shooter on their roster for next season, after losing JJ Redick in free agency to the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Oklahoma City Thunder could be another great landing spot for Monta Ellis. They need a spark plug off the bench, and Monta Ellis is that guy. The Thunder need some scoring production when Russell Westbrook and Paul George go to the bench to get some rest.

The Toronto Raptors is another team that could use Monta Ellis services. The Raptors need guard bench production after the loss of Cory Joseph in free agency to the Indiana Pacers.

We will soon see what team Monta Ellis ends up on.

Memphis Grizzlies Holds off Kawhi Leonard's Playoff Career Night and Evens the Series 2-2

Kawhi Leonard was playing like a man possessed out there on the court last night. Kawhi could do no wrong last night. The only mistake he made last night was missing a jumper at the end of regulation that forced the game to overtime.

Kawhi scored San Antonio Spurs last 16 points in the fourth quarter.

But, every time Kawhi tried to take the heart out of the Memphis Grizzlies, Mike Conley answered back with a basket of his own.

It looked like Conley & Leonard were in a one on one battle, and the rest of players were out there for the show.

Kawhi Leonard finished with a playoff career-high 43 points, eight rebounds, and six steals.

Although Kawhi was the standout player for the San Antonio Spurs, Tony Parker contributed with 22 points, five assists, and four rebounds. LaMarcus Aldridge finished with 13 points. Pau Gasol gave the Spurs bench production; he finished with eight points and 13 rebounds.

Mike Conley who was the standout player for the Memphis Grizzlies last night, he finished with 35 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists. The Grizzlies also had others contribute in the game four win. Zach Randolph finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Marc Gasol finished 16 points and 12 rebounds. Marc Gasol also hit the game-winning shot to even the series at 2-2. Vince Carter finished with 13 points. JaMychal Green finished with 14 points off the bench. Aaron Harrison finished with seven points off the bench, along with a game-saving block.

The Memphis Grizzlies defeated the San Antonio Spurs 110-108 in overtime.

Game five will take place on Tuesday, at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas.
