****************** Who would be More Beneficial: Monta Ellis or Danny Granger? *****************************

Question

I was wondering who would put up better stats on paper.
After the big trade between Golden State and Indiana, do you think Granger's stats are going to increase Signifacantly?

Also, even though i know Monta Ellis is no longer a starter, it is safe to say that he is now the 6th man of the team. Before he started, he still averaged about the same thing this season. He is still getting almost the same amount of playing time, but do you think that now that he has more outlets to pass:
1) There is less pressure (Double Team)
2) His assist will go up
3) Shooting % increase
4) Just an all around better player

-or-

Danny Granger, i know he is considered the 2nd go to guy on his team however, i believe:
1) His point value will increase (not dramatically)
2) He will get double teamed more frequantly
3) Assist will go down even more

Im a huge Granger fan, but i need YOUR help to figure out who would be a better player on paper.

Granger or Ellis on my fantasy team?

Answer 1

Go with Granger.... he is a much more consistent stat creator... I think Monta is a bit overrated... Granger is gonna start... he is very good and a smart basketball player... very Athletic. I think go with Granger... especially if you have an open spot for him on your fantasy team.

Answer 2

Monta Ellis, because he will come off the bench as a scorer first and he will still get starter minutes. Remember, Nellie constantly changes his starting line-up and rotations depending on who they're playing, and the Warriors are an uptempo team where everybody gets stats.

Go with Ellis.

Answer 3

Definitely Granger, because right now the Warriors are loaded with guards. I'm not really sure he'll become the 6th man. Once Jason Richardson is healthy, he'll lost more playing time.
