    oh dear golly, I hope this NEVER happens. Marbury's attitude is not in the right place.. he would be a cancer not an addition.

    To me, this would be low risk, high reward. In the past week or so, it has become pretty evident that our bench is inept in quite a few areas. Placing Marbury in there would do wonders for our team if he keeps himself in check, if not, you just cut him and everything goes back to normal.

    Why is his attitude not in the right place? He was willing to come off the bench and New York and didn't complain when D'Antoni didn't give him a lick of playing time.

    Yeah, but his role will be limited, so he would have to work really hard to have such a negative impact.

    We might be losers, too, if we don't do anything to improve our bench.

    O' Bryant must blow donkey's balls if he's the only other legit 7 footer on the team besides Perk and he can't get much burn.

    He had said at one point he was deciding between us and the Spurs.

    You can't really blow balls, but I get your point. I think he's still sowewhat of a project, though.

    Prior to last season, you could you make the same argument for KG.

    The guy is earning $21 million for just sitting on his ass. Money is hardly the issue.

    but unlike KG when he left the wolves, all of Marbury's ex-teams improved when he left ;)
