After reading through newspaper coverage of Stephon Marbury's career, I'm a little more nervous today than I was yesterday. From the day he forced Kevin McHale to trade him so he could go get the same max contract in New Jersey that McHale was offering him in Minnesota to the days when he went from being an advocate for Isiah Thomas and Larry Brown to alienating them both, I'm left with one thought.
This guy reminds me of Mike Tyson. At times, both have been unpredictable and erratic, almost to a point of psychosis and self-destruction.
Can Starbury get it together and keep a lid on it here in Boston?
I don't know. Eddie House, Tony Allen, and even Sam Cassell were all unhappy about their playing time during the playoffs last year at one point or another. Professionals that they were, each one of them to a man simply said "talk to Doc about it" when asked by the media to comment on the lack of minutes.
Can Steph do that?
About as likely as asking Mike Tyson to be professional.
No?
