Marbury’s game-relevant problem is that he plays “ulterior agenda basketball”. That is, his decisions on the court are not informed by the game’s fundamentals &/or by in-game circumstance. Instead, Marbury responds to forces & concerns that are preconceived, concocted as per his Starbury alter ego’s consultation with his own possessed muse & his entourage of sycophants. In this way, Marbury is an archetypical caricature of mid-to-late 90’s elite-level basketball. It is Marbury’s ulterior agenda game that distinguishes him from a Chris Paul. Because he has the ball at his palm so often, it is the predominance of starbury’s ulterior agendas that render his presence so very detrimental to a basketball collective.

Put him back on Coney Island, on a playground, in a 21-Hustle, he’d thrive. On the court, in the game of games . . . he is animated detritus.

Here’s hoping this absurd story sufferers a duly warranted fade into into nonsense & whimsy . . .

Now, last year you put this merry band of morons together and they were all so happy to have a title thrown in their laps that they behaved, played me last ball and won a title. This year, the honeymoon is over. They have no idea that they are too old, to unskilled, too selfish, too immature, and too complacent to win. If you dont’ believe me, ask Danny Ainge who is trying to get anyone he can to sign with the C’s to help> HE KNOWS THIS IS THE TITANIC AND HE’S TRYING TO PATCH IT BEFORE IT GOES DOWN!

This is the story with the Pistons as well, same script different players. There will always be those teams that can bond and play well enough as a team to win one title, and then the next year they look like idiots.

The Celtics are shell-shocked after the Lakers beat them, and they are never coming back. They will probably make the playoffs, thanks to the string of bad teams they played early on, but one of the REAL championship contenders will knock them off, and it will all start over in Boston.

This team is the weakest spirited most trash talking, wanna-be-though-guys probably in league history. When Morbury gets there it will complete the iceburg and this baby is sunk. The players know it too, the mere fact that Ainge is willing to gamble on Marbury tells them all they need to know.

At least last year you could say that this team conducted itself with a reasonably amount of class, this year every team that plays them complains about the huge amount of sh!t they talk and the dirty play, especially by KG and Leon Powe. When/if Marbury gets there, this already in shambles team’s locker room will crumble.

“What can they say now?” That you’re garbage KG.

I do feel sorry for the guy in a way, I know other selfish morons who crapped their career away in an blaze of egocentric, me-first behavior and it’s always sad to watch. He’s a douchebag, but he is a very rich douchebag so he ended up doing something right after all I guess
