Looks like "The Official Monta Ellis Fan Club" will get more attention around bbf.com.

Re: Monta Ellis wins MIP
Chan, you saw talent in a guy that was written off my nearly everyone. You had faith in Ellis the moment he entered the league, even when he was an afterthought for everyone else. And now you're right.You're my hero.

After the excitement subsided, I had a sick feeling when I heard the news of Monta winning MIP for the very fact that i knew Chan would be in here stroking himself again.
Congrats to Monta.

I though K-Mart should have won as well.
The popular belief, though, is that you ought to reward a winning team (versus an underachieving team). I think it's horse****, but it's the general way of thinking w.r.t. awarding prizes it seems.

I did so too, but Ellis was deserving of the award aswell, just not as much as Martin.
Anyways, congrats Monta!
