Here's the translation.

Ticker January 17, Shanxi coach Wu Qinglong said that the former NBA player Stephen - Marbury officially joined the team in Shanxi Province, and will soon arrive at the club. The 96 golden generation of players will arrive in Shanxi and the team at a recent signing, and the rest of the game to participate in CBA. This is also the season from the Swift, the second installment of the shocking deal.

Marbury, 33 years old when the play is still in his year of military leave Lvshan Celtics, he had to rest at home. In the last summer, there was news that the team links in Shanxi Marbury, a season later, the news has finally been confirmed. As the provisions of this season Basketball Association team has three opportunities to replace foreign aid, this time signing Marbury also made substitutions in Shanxi spent the last places.

Prior to Andrew, Shanxi team has used to replace underperforming multi-tower - Smith, Andrew, but the game after the injury and at least a truce a month, and then rushed the club signed a 37-year-old Lee Benson, Taylor once again due to injury, the club had to use Substitution swap places in the last one, while "Baixinho" Marbury has become the team this season whether he can enter the quarter-finals of the life-saving straw.

"Baixinho" Marbury in 1996, the first one the first four the Bucks then traded to the Timberwolves began his NBA career, he worked in Wolves, Phoenix Suns, New Jersey Nets, New York Knicks as well as the effectiveness of the Boston Celtic teams, a total of 11 played in the NBA last season. The 1998-99 season, scoring an average of 21.3 Marbury NBA No. 8, 8.9 assists and No. 3; 1999-2000 season, scoring an average of 22.2 Marbury NBA No. 5, 8.4 assists, NBA No. 13; 2000 -01 season, scoring an average of 23.9, columns NBA No. 10; assists and 7.6, columns NBA No. 8.

In the NBA, everyone had put Marbury called the "Baixinho", while Marbury has amazing personal ability, on the other hand, he Snob personality made him difficult to reconcile with teammates and team management to get along. In the New York Knicks last season, Marbury's single-season wage is 20.84 million U.S. dollars, it is worth to aid in the CBA to play the most expensive one.

Shanxi team in the choice of foreign aid has also been generous, last season in mid-season introduction of Bunge - Wales, this season has introduced the Morris - Taylor, but the reputation of these two players is great, but they have not taken the team has brought a qualitative change. This time, the reputation of Marbury will join a greater, Shanxi able to lead in his next fly high into the sky do? We will see.

After three games he will clash with the coach and end up on the far end of the bench. Then he will find a chinese chick and she will help him trash the team, coach, teammates in the media. Then he will hold a "truck party" and....deja vu

Stephon Marbury will become the highest profile American to play in the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) after he agreed to join China's Shanxi Club.

"The aim of signing Marbury is to pay back our fans and try to win more games in the rest of the season," said Shanxi boss Wang Xingjiang.

Marbury wanted to promote his personal brand of shoes in China and will not receive an exorbitant salary.

Shanxi last season hired former NBA player Bonzi Wells, who scored as many as 50 points a game.

Good for him, at least he won't be selling car insurance :lol:

Can't wait for Team Starbury to start bigging up Steph's 50 ppg performances :teeth:

He won't last longer than 4 weeks in China, mark my words!

You maybe right, Bonzi Welles played for this team and lasted a little more than a month. He left for the US and told them he wasn't coming back and they released him. Makes sense now why he went, wants to sell his line of clothes over there. That team is 3-11, if he beasts it and helps the team and stays over there a couple of years he may sell some sneakers and jerseys.
