The Regime Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Monta Ellis welcomed rookie Stephen Curry to the Warriors last season with comments suggesting that they would be unsuccessful playing at the same time. "A month before the season was over with, I really had to sit back and blame myself in a sense because I'm that leader; I'm that one who everybody feeds off of," Ellis said. "Everything that went on last year (regarding Curry) shouldn't have gone on. I blame myself." Ellis said he made amends with Curry this summer. Curry attend the wedding of Ellis in July, while the only other current teammate present was Devean George. "When I made that comment, I wasn't knocking him," Ellis said. "I wasn't bashing him. It was based off of what me and the Warriors were going through at the time. It had nothing to do with him. http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/69160/20100917/monta_takes_blame_for_curry_relationship/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newman Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 I hope he wasn't expecting Curry to take the blame. While I appreciate his courage, I think this means that even Monta acknowledges that Curry is the man at the moment for the Warriors and so he has to take a step back and take the role of the 2nd star.
