Gilbert Arenas rule
New rule will help Warriors
Quote:
Seeing guard Monta Ellis play, it's hard not to think of Gilbert Arenas, the Warriors second-round jewel from the 2001 draft.
Ellis, one of two Warriors second-round picks in June's NBA draft, is loaded with talent, as was Arenas. Ellis is explosive on offense, as was Arenas. Ellis is supremely confident, as was Arenas.
"I knew what I had to do," said Ellis, who signed with the Warriors last week. "I'm in now. I'm going to make everything else happen."

The Warriors have the rights to both of their picks for three years, according to a person in their organization who requested anonymity. Another person familiar with Ellis' contract said he signed a two-year deal with a team option for the third.
"(Taft) got a multiyear deal with some very, very good guarantees and some other bonuses that he's going to have to earn," Taft's agent, Billy Ceisler, said. "The Warriors took care of him as an organization."
