Leading the NBA in minutes played and not missing a game in 3 years (even when your ankles are killing you and you're waiting for offseason surgery) is more than you can ask of any leader. I guess until last season Kevin Garnett was nothing more than a stat leader since his teams never made it out of the first round.
And I could have sworn Houston helped lead the Knicks to the NBA finals

Most of the guys that Garnett has played with would go through a brick wall for him. Marbury doesn't conjure up the same feelings amongst his former or current teammates. Don't even bother comparing the two when it comes to leadership skills. Actually you shouldn't bother comparing them at all. That's an insult to KG.
