Monta Ellis has averaged > 30PPG in the last 7-8 games and has just scored a career high 45 points before fouling out. Ellis should be an 82-83 now considering his amazing performance recently
Trevor Ariza is finally being taken seriously in Houston, and its obviously why he chose the meagre contract they were offering instead of nearly double the money from the Toronto in the off-season. Apparantly he got what he wanted and he's already one of the few go-to-guys in Houston and i reckon he will continue to be that guy (especially if T-Mac is going to be traded).
So I do think both deserve rating increases IN THE SCORING DEPARTMENT. Particularly in their efficiency in scoring. Ariza should get boosts in his 3-point shooting as well IMO. from 76 to 78

Any thoughts on Salmons? I gave up Ben Gordon fo Salmons because i share the same sentiments as the Bulls coaching staff. Ben Gordon is this undersized SG who shoots great and is a formidable offensive player. HOWEVER, Salmons is a much better defender and has proven to be scoring threat as well.
Salmons(<30games in Chicago):
37.7mins ,18.3PPG FG% .473 3pt%: .415 Rebs: 4.3 Asts: 2.0
Gordon:
36.6 mins, 20.7PPG, FG%: .455 3pt%:.410 Rebs:3.5 Asts:3.4
Considering Salmons was the new guy in Chicago last season, he proved to be an efficient scorer as good as Gordon if not better. So i'm not sure if the current scoring ratings are up-to-date or not but i think he derserves some credit, as well as scoring efficiency to be on par with Ben Gordon at least, maybe from 77 to 80?
