and he's getting old fast
I'd like to see where exactly you can point to evidence that suggests such a notion. From what I've seen when Marbury seems to put forth the effort he can do pretty much the same things he has done in the past.
He's just not doing it. Do I claim to know why? No, because I'm a fan. I can speculate, but I know that I have just as little insight into why he isn't scoring now as the rest of us.
But I won't be waiting for the day when many of us start to be a bit more balanced with our perspectives.

You seem bitter, Pres.
I base it on a lessened foot speed - he doesn't blow by guys like he used to, he requires more picks to free himself, his crossover isn't as deceptive as he used to be, his lift is diminished, his shot gets blocked more, etc - and increasing complaints of knee tendonitis.
What, you've never seen a guy lose half a step?
