Monta Ellis Quotations

Whenever I get the opportunity, I'm going to make the best of it. I never expected to start and play a lot of minutes.

I knew I wasn't going to play major minutes. I set my mind for it. When I got my opportunity, I took advantage of it.

When I play my game, there's that, and more to come. Tonight it just seemed that I had it going in the first half and they put me back in the second half. It wasn't all on the offensive end. It was the defensive end as well. The little things.

If I fought it, it would have been an even bigger deal than it was. You've just got to be able to accept it no matter what happens.

When I hit my first three jumpers in a row, I knew I was going to have a good night. I just need to keep doing what I'm doing and then the game will come to me, everything will be good.

I'm not trying to put any more pressure on me because it's the playoffs.

Nobody gives a rat's nipple about me.

I just gotta find myself. Somehow, some way. However I gotta do it, I gotta do it.

We're just finishing up and the season isn't over yet. We're not making the playoffs, but the season's still going on. We still want to compete until the end and we've got no more games left.
