Cowherd's show was good yesterday. Coach K., Mel Kiper. The shyt Jerry West said. shyt was real talk.

Marbs and Kobe were going at it all that week in 2001.

The 2001 all star game was still the best IMO the way it ended.

Young Kobe, AI & Marbs down the stretch of that game

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

Marbs 50 point, 12 assist game was one of the greatest individual efforts I saw live



He was ABUSING Kobe.

The 3:15 mark.... :

he made kobe & shaq both look stupid in a manner of 3 seconds.

This classic thread back?

For the record marburys handles were about as good as kyries and he was twice as athletic.

Currys handles were never as good as Iverson

Do we believe a TheColi poster or Iverson himself?

 

[Columbo]

Starbury was better then Kyrie. Alot more durable too in his prime. He had the ironman streak at one point

iverson just being humble.

The Marbury Kidd trade could be the most lopsided deal in league history.

As far as being a PG, the Irving/Marbury comparison is blasphemous. Marbury was a much better passer and playmaker.

 

[stepbackj34spud]

nikkas actin like there isn't a reason Marbury got paid. Son was nice, period. If my team needs a PG, im taking prime Marbury over Irving easily.

His style reminds me of GP. I don't consider GP a defensive player, even he's probably one of the best defensive guards of all time.
My point is that he's not like AI who had to have the ball on every possession. He functions within the bounds of a team. He has range from everywhere and is clutch.

How is Dame Lillard like Payton at all? Payton was a defensive wizard, Lillard is a sieve. Lillard is a long distance shooter and off the dribble shooter, Payton would be going to work in the post. They're not even similar players really.
