Kobe doesnt make his teammates better. He COULD, but he doesnt. He's unstoppable on his own, but that has nothing to do with the TEAM. The rest of that list is accurate.
The problem is that Isiah will really hear from the fans, b/c Marbury is a huge fan-favorite and some uneducated fans will think that Marbury should be untouchable. But Steph, once again, is the right player for wrong position. He's a 2 guard at heart, but an undersized one at that. He's been basically forced to play the point b/c of his size, and b/c of his vast abilities, has been expected to do great things. B/c of those abilities, he always has and always will put up great numbers. But it's not completely his fault that the teams he's always played for have lost. It's the GM's fault. It's the owner's fault. And to a degree, it IS Steph's fault, for having all the talent in the world, and refusing to mold those talents to the position he inevitably has to play...
