He'll get it together, which won't be no surprise to you or me nor I won't come up blowing the site up with a Marbury rave.
It won't be no surprise? That means it will be a surprise...
I believe what you were trying to say is:
"...which will be of no surprise to me or you nor will I come to the site blowing it up with a Marbury rave."
What happened to the education system in this country?

Metro, your a good poster, a good guy, but we need to move past this no matter what. If you want to talk about Steph, go to a Celtics forum. This is NBA section now.... Lets move past this and look to the future
Seriously man, Stop with the Marbury threads. Metrocard go be a Celtics fan, it would make us all happier.
Seriously......
Yes they can respond to this.
Look, I hear you that Steph was mismanaged, and if it was just the mismanagement that bothered me about Steph, you'd have a point. But the fact of the matter is, this guy refused to play for the team, for this city. Reports are coming out now that Steph, by his own sources (read: not Donnie Walsh or Mike D'Antoni), asked for permission to speak with Boston BEFORE TRAINING CAMP when he was due, as Starbury lovers will say, a "clean slate" (though, it should be noted Mike D'Antoni NEVER said that).
Not to mention, when this team was short-handed, Steph refused to play, or at least said he "wouldn't feel comfortable" playing. Now, talk all you want about how Marbury was entitled to this after being "wronged" by Mike D'Antoni. Up until that second where he refused to play I probably would agree with you. As a life-long Knicks fan, I was insulted that he refused to put on this jersey. I understand he didn't want to play for Mike, but for a guy that's so about the fans, I felt wronged and duped by Stephon's refusal. I think it's a very selfish way for a ballplayer to look at it.
I bought Steph's jersey. I bought Steph's paraphanlia. I cheered Steph's arrival, and cheered Steph before he got here. I spent my hard earned money to go sit in Madison Square Garden and watch Stephon Marbury play. And what'd he give back in return, for all the money we as fans put into this team, and all the time we spent on boards just like this one to discuss being Knicks fans, what'd Steph do in return?
He refused to play. He argued with almost all of his coaches. He sat out and held this team hostage until they paid him almost all of the $20 million he "earned". There are people starving in this world, there are people who don't have a lot of money and a lot of those people STILL go out and by Stephon Marbury goods, putting money in his already fat pockets. And all the "respect" he had for us New Yorkers was refusal to play. That, I can not accept.
