Me being the huge Warriors fan I am, seeing this video actually hit my soft spot. Weird? Just kind of.. but it's true. Seeing the way Monta talks about the game and the way he shows his passion on/off the court is different from the first couple years he played in the NBA. Hell, even last year he wasn't like this!

He matured so much from his days of the "WE BELIEVE" era, and now his repertoire for the game is amazing. What I enjoy most is the fact that Monta realized it's not all about himself, and more about the team. He has became a leader this year, and I've seen different aspects of it and it's... just... great. From mending the relationship with Steph Curry, encouraging players that are struggling on court, and getting his team involved. He's not a kid in the league anymore, sure doesn't act or play like it. So he def deserves an All Star position. Monta Ellis, keep doing your thing. I see that bridge on your back, Warriors Nation Love.

→ TED WILLIAMS WITH A GOLDEN VOICE



Great story, and I'm glad that he turned his life around from drugs and alcohol. Rumors are that he might work for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Quick Loans arena. His attitude to be humble about his opportunity makes him so appealing to people. I believe he'll get many offers due to his grateful manner. From completely homeless to working with the NBA team Cleveland Cavaliers.

→ GROWTH

Growth (n.) - the act or process, or a manner of growing; development; gradual increase.

Growth to me is vital in understanding the meaning and purpose of life. To ignorantly reject the challenges life has confronted you with and stay the same is similar to being "dead". I've been growing so much from my days in high school and I feel there's so much more to me than what meets the eye with me. To grow I believe the obstacles that pose problems need to be conquered, and on to the next wall to climb. Gaining experience and knowledge is ultimately a part of growing, and it just feels good to learn in life's trials.

→ HK

I miss Hong Kong soo much.. The look and feel of Hong Kong is slipping my memory and I'm a bit upset with that. I've been there maybe 3 times my life but never really cherished what was in front of me. I'm dying to go back and greet my relatives.. Past years I visited they accepted me with open arms and with smiles. Cousins, Uncles, Aunts took days off work to show me around and cook me delicious meals while taking me into their home, I definitely did not show my gratitude enough for all that. I was so young and naive to not take advantage of my surroundings.. whether it was my family gatherings in the mornings (yumcha), shopping in new areas with my brother and Allan, or just simply the smell of the streets. There's so much I wish I can just take in all again.. More importantly, my grandma and grandpa. They're getting old, late 80s, and I actually want to make them happy. I talk to them here and there over the phone but my lack of Chinese skills makes communication difficult. I wish I had a better relationship with them but distance from them makes things hard. They're definitely a blessing in my life, they're just amazingly cute together. I just want to see their faces... I'm going to make a promise to get my grandpa a pair of Air Maxes and a scarf for my Grandma. Kind of getting that emotional feeling thinking about the.... not gonna finish that. I have the need to go back to Hong Kong and take so many pictures, of everything... every little thing that can possibly bring a smile to me. I can look back and say "hey, that was when... or, remember when..." I miss it. I miss the night life, the MTR, the outdoor goods, the different life and surroundings. It was great, it will be great again.
