Dead tired but was relentless. I can't lie and say he plays like this every game. But this is exactly what Zeke was thinking when he traded for him. He was priceless tonight. He has definatly been growing ever since he got torched by Watson.

It may have taken a lot of dissapointment to get him to this level. But he has put focus on playing his man tough. And the maturity level has definatly risen. There was one play when we were up by 1-2 with 40+ seconds left someone put up a shot & missed JYD got us the offensive rebound kicked out to Crawford who passed it to Marbury. The old Marbury would have jacked up the 3 pointer and tried to put the game away. This Marbury stopped thought about it and instead got organized knowing he can kill more time off the clock and still get a quality shot off to put the game away. I can see him turning into a complete player/PG.

I guess we found out the secret to our failures and success. Instead of having the lead going into the fourth we should come from behind. Seriously the was a big character building game. Its about time they learned what it takes to win these games.

Ever since the Memphis game when Watson out played him.

Wesley(4-16) Garcia(1-7)
Arenas(8-24)
Miller(1-7)
Kidd(6-10)
Billups(6-18)
Iverson(9-19) Green(6-14)

He may not shut all the quality players down but he has definatly been making the work there as off on both ends.

Steph did leave it all out there last night, and when we were down big, he never gave up, he imposed his will offensively on the sixes. he was playing like a leader last night..

Yeah, Marbury has been great and you can see how much he loves NY and wants to win for the city in those moments.

What I really hope is that he gets more time to rest because he has played a lot...

Yeah even though Marbury was tired he ws still dving on the floor and playing defense. I thought he was going to shoot when Crawford gave him that wide open three but I was shocked when he didn't shoot. I thought Moochie did a solid job on defense against IVerson was Marbury wasn't on him too
