Why does a dog lick his balls?
Cuz he can.
We entering the supreme Starphuch of all times!
And we are taking the bait.
Stevie Francis and marbury together is just bizzare.
In freaking insane. This might be the dumbest thing.
And to think if he plays good his value goes up?
And if not, he becomes untradable!
Another deadline is better than any game.
Why is Marbury and Francis any more bizarre than Marbury and Crawford?
I think they can work together in the same backcourt. If the knicks traded for Ray Allen instead of francis, know one would say, Allen and Marbur can't work together. Yet, Ray Allen averages about 2 ast for is career. But you don't worry about Allens ast because he's a SHOOTING GUARD, and you dont expect your shooting guard to be a play maker.
When and if Francis comes here, he will be a shooting guard. But, he'll be a shooting guard who has more ability than any other shooting guard in the league to make plays like a pg can. Francis role would be to shoot, like Allens role would be, like crawfords role was/is.
Obviously Marbury would have to pull the reigns back on his game a little, but he would have to do the same for any highly coveted shooting guard who came here.
Plus with the new rules, (no hand checking) it will be hard to keep Marbuyr and FRancis out of the paint.
Plus Francis gives you a better alternative at the point than crawford ever was.
