When all is said and done, in this draft we got Marbury and Penny (from PHO) and Ariza.
Suns are a flash in the pan...they are still an injury away from the lottery, while the knicks have an injury and are competing for the 3rd seed in the east.
Marbury is stiffling himself because he thinks he has to...once we get a few wins over 500 (next 7 games) he will explode to be the 20/10 career guard he was built to be. Regardless of what happens with the Houston and Crawford rotation, they will combine for 35 to 40 a game. TT puts in his now expected 10 points a game and we are well on our way to a title...yeah, I said it...title.
Damn kool aid. :o)
Suns in the lottery? Uh, no. They're the new Kings, but better.
That said, I don't think Marbury looks back to Phoenix with TOO much regret. He's been waiting his whole career to get to NYC and he's finally here. I'm sure he'll be more than happy to let Isiah build around him. If you gave Marbury the choice of winning a championship in Phoenix, AZ or New York, NY, which do you think he would choose?
