The guys who want to have Marbury's baby are totally irrational when it comes to his critics. (Hello...Penny?). Nobody says he's a bad PG because he scores....nobody. People criticise the way he runs a team, his poor BBall IQ, his prima donna attitude, selfish ways at times, and his disappearnace when it counts. If he played like he did against the Sixers, you wouldn't hear a peep. Is he finally getting it? Who knows?....check in at the end of the season.

By the way...after JC goes 0-7, then makes 3 baskets in a row, he is suddenly the guy who steps up at crunch time? After those three shots, the guy passed up a potential back breaking 3 (I guess a good wide-open look isn't what he looks for), a missed shot he forced early in the clock, and a choke at the line that let the game go into overtime don't matter? Well, they will in close games. It almost cost them yesterday but for a very fortunate shot at the end. The guy has no feel for the game.

And please, Penny, try to understand what MVP means. It doesn't say "Best player". It says the most valuable player to his team. You know, the one that makes the most difference. Comparing Sm to Nash on the Suns is pure horsecrap. Marbury never even bought into the game they were trying to play. He couldn't play the Suns type of offense effectively if his life depended on it. Not meant to slam Marbury...he just doesn't(can't) play THAT type of game.
