And1 brand ambassador. 2007 NBA Most Improved Player. Pure scorer.

Current Golden State Warriors player Monta Ellis celebrates his birthday today, born October 26, 1985. One of the NBA's leader in minutes played for the 2009-2010 & 2010-2011 seasons, the player otherwise known as the Mississippi Bullet/Missile has shown significant improvement in each of his playing years, and swears that he'll be a much more lethal player this upcoming season (SLAM Kicks interview, 2011).

Since 2006, Monta has rocked And1 shoes and his kicksology includes the Wonder Mid, Disciple Mid, Onslaught Mid, plus a signature line that featured the ME8 Mid and ME8 Sovereign Mid, and the yet-to-be-worn in a NBA game, ME8 Empire Mid, among other silhouettes.

AND1 Ph greets one of the best pure scorers in the NBA on his special day. Check out the pics below of Monta wearing And1 shoes through the years, and click HERE to view some of his NBA highlights from the 2010-2011 season.

On a more personal note, I am still hopeful that Monta gets the respect that he deserves and makes it to the NBA All Star game soon. At 26, he can only get better. A more consistent long range shot with better rebounding and assists averages should seal the deal for this speed freak.

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ME8!
