Anyone notice how they stopped talking about Marbury once things started to turn in his life? 

They hate to see you shine.

So true, bad news is all they wanna talk about it seems.

"They" stopped talking about him because he went to China. Why is that a surprise?

Fast forward to today and you can compare KD & Westbrook to this since we keep getting threads like the"Would OKC be better off without Westbrook threads" 

But really though just glad to see Steph playing again and having success in China.

At least he didn't go out and his life ain't a mess like AI's right now.

that's has got to be the hardest medallion on an NBA player ever. I wanted that joint and my name doesn't have an "s" anywhere.

Very happy for Stephon Marbury. Very looking forward to seeing a Chinese movie about Starbury's life in China in the future. I still wear Stephon's T-Wolves jersey.

Actually "they" wrote a very long article trying to paint him as delusional and broke for sticking it out in China before this recent success. 

 

[dman14]

damn, they built and presented him the statue with quickness 

rodman gave a speech

think there is a book coming out in china too

 

[sean c0mbs]

what the hell is Rodman doing there tho?

 

[thasoleful1]

i guess rodman was the best they could get from the states

 

[pharelfor3]

i'm feeling the Statue. His arms look real lanky in it though. good for him. Is the statue in a random park? Doesn't look like it's near a stadium.

 

[mez 0ne]

Real dope, happy for him.

For some reason dude follows me and always responds to me via twitter, dude stays positive always.
