Spears: I reported on Curry in the early days. Yongmi would rather trade him than Monta

Recently, famous reporter Spears talked about reporting on the Warriors on the show "The OGs".

Spears said: "I've seen Curry with an ankle injury. Everyone was unhappy with Harrison not leaving Curry when he was in Nike, but Curry was not outstanding at that time.

"For Warriors fans at the time, if they were honest, I promise they would rather trade Curry than Monta Ellis. The Warriors were always losing and fans preferred players who could score 30 points. ”

In the 2005 draft, Monta Ellis was selected by the Warriors with the 10th pick in the second round. His fast speed and sharp breakthrough style was very consistent with the Warriors' offensive system. Soon he began to shine and become a sharp knife under Old Nelson. In the second season, he won the fastest-progressive player. The 2009-10 season was Ellis' peak. He averaged 25.5 points, 5.3 assists and 2.2 steals per game. He was the team's number one scorer for three consecutive seasons.

But the team system with him as the core is difficult to achieve results. New coach Mark Jackson focuses on defense. With Curry's gradual rise, the Warriors began to seek new ways out, so he sent him to the Bucks and began to embark on the road of rising balanced offense and defense.
