Metro -- good post....
Many people that think they know about Steph are just
regurgitating what the media outputs...
Many people don't want to take the time to listen and admit maybe he isn't such a bad guy because then they don't have anyone to blame....
Funny how Duhon, Crawford, Curry, Q-Rich, Jefferies, J. James, Franics, are all players that no NBA team wants or would ever consider a "Winner"
Look how quickly Mikey D moved his boy Q to the bench when an out of shape Hughes came over...
Marbury is a tremdous talent, that was seeing is character, the franchise he loved, and management all go done the toliet and he took it in stride...
He willingly took the blame for Fred Weis, Larry Brown, Jim Dolan, Isiah, and in return all he wanted was to win...
Then Mikey D pulled the rug out because he couldn't rebuild with a personality on the team bigger than his own..
Its like the Hawks trading Wilkins when they were in first place for Danny Manning and saying "Wilkins is the face of the organization" ha!
Marbury carries the weight on Coney Island on his shoulders and I don't think many people understand how different life is here in the NYC area
If Steph re-signs with the Celtics there will be Green #8 jersey's all over NYC probably more than any of the Knicks
Funny how AI has been 2 x's as bad off the court paid more money of his career than Marbury basically hated every where he goes, chucking shots for another team next year (still not passing or winning) but since he's not from NYC nobody cares...
Marbury is the scapegoat for NYC and was willing to carry the load for those years just to get a shot at winning in MSG...
Now he is in Boston -- and I'm going to root for him to win a title as long as the Celtics aren't playing the Knicks
If you can't root for Marbury to win a title -- you were never a Knicks fan, never a true NYC baller, and your justifing James Dolan mis-management for all those years...
Remember when Ewing was a Sonic and you cheered him on
Since Allan Houton to Donnie Walsh the only good thing we had in the middle was Steph Marbury

Sometimes people forget how down Knicks fan were on Ewing
I am in NO WAY comparing the 2 , lets make that clear !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the Knicks are out of the Playoffs -- why not root for Steph --
Who knows maybe Rondo gets hurts and Steph has bigger role ?
you can't say that you won't root for one team or another -- every time you watch any game -- you root for someone
The point I was making is that I'm not going to root for the Clippers just because Marcus Camby is a Clipper. I'm not going to root for the Thunder just because Malik Rose is on the Thunder. I didn't root for the T'Wolves just because Sprewell was on the T'Wolves. I am not going to root for the Pistons just because Antonio McDyess is a Piston. I am not going to root for the Blazers just because Channing Frye is a Blazer. I am not going to root for the Lakers just because Trevor Ariza is a Laker. I am not going to root for the Bulls just because Tim Thomas is a Bull.
I root for the Knicks. I root against Boston because I hate the Celtics, I don't care if they have Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley and every great former Knick ever. The jersey reads "Celtics", I don't root for them.
I was speaking about the city and the metro area.....
Starks you really don't think the city cares about Marbury you are wrong...
Every kid in New York, and yes even some Jersey, wanted to be Marbury and followed him from his High School days....
They rooted for him as a T'wolf, Sun, Net, Knick and will as a Celtic...
because he was hope for all kids out there ballin' in the city --
Your speaking of "product" -- no real Knicks fan thinks of their team as a "product"
that just shows your heart is in the wrong place
The Knicks aren't a product -- they are much , much more than that
and me being from Jersey is no agruement - I am closer to the Garden than you are fool
Hey richtree how old are you?
what do you do for a living or study in school?
(This is going to be fun)
Enlighten us New Yorkers why your saying that most of us care about Marbury.
I also want to hear more about your theory on why we are required to root for Marbury on the Celtics. Don't bother posting if your argument is childish.
I'm here to 5pm.
?the worst Knick in franchise history
Whats your reasoning for calling him ?
He is def not the worst Knick in franchise history....
Anyone who was that opinion ...especially after reading the above article doesn't know anything about basektball...
If he was still on this roster he would be the best player on the team
2ndly.... The Knicks have a greater rival in the Bulls and Heat especially in recent memory
People like to create a NY vs. Boston connection when the Celtics real rival is the Lakers and always will be..
The Knicks v. Boston hasn't exsisted in decades.
And more than likely the Knicks won't make the playoffs....
If they do great, I ll root them home..
If not , this year, I will root for Celts to win for Steph...
When Jordan was a wizard you don't think bulls fans were pulling for him ?????
You're comparing Jordan to Stephon?
:teeth::teeth::teeth::teeth::teeth::teeth::teeth:
I see we have a jokester in the house.
