If Rondo is such an All-Star then why are the C's courting Starbury?

by Craig Kwasniewski

All right all you Celtics bandwagoners, if your beloved Rajon Rondo is such an All-Star (which he's not), then why are you willing to bring in the league's biggest cancer since J.R. Rider in Stephon Marbury? I'll get back to that in a second...

Let's look at the top point guards in the NBA: Chris Paul, Deron Williams, Tony Parker, Chauncey Billups, Steve Nash, Derrick Rose, Devin Harris, Jason Kidd (listed here for career achievements)... I think I got all of them, right? Are there any rumors of the Hornets, Jazz, Spurs, Nuggets, Suns, Bulls, Nets or Mavs willing to bring in Marbury? Of course not! Why? Because they're not willing to sacrifice team chemistry for the most self-centered me-first (redundant for a reason) player in the L and also because THEY HAVE GOOD POINT GUARDS!!!! Are there any other All-Stars being replaced backed up by a player who's currently being paid $20 million to NOT play basketball?

So that brings me back to the Boston Celtics... if Rajon Rondo is such an All-Star, why are they willing to put up with a half-season of Stephon Marbury? Is there something behind-the-scenes that I'm missing? Could it be that the coaching staff lacks confidence in Rondo (after all they did bring in Sam Cassell last season)? A team that won the NBA title with excellent team chemistry and an excellent assistant coach is willing to go all in with Starbury? Clearly the Celtics weakness is the lack of front-court depth so why bring in a scoring point guard? What am I missing here?

I say go for it Boston! We all know Starbury will bring the best-est effort in his freakin' life, will con the Boston media into loving him (expect a ton of "Marbury's finally gettin it" articles, after all these are the same people who actually thought the 08-09 Celtics were the second best team in franchise history... pull-ease!) anyway... Starbury will also help Boston to the top record in the Eastern Conference, but fare thee be warned... you're still getting a true bad guy and eventually his true colors will shine. And I will love watching the slow collapse.

So again, if Rajon Rondo is such an All-Star, why are they willing to put up with a half-season of Stephon Marbury?

look bitch, i dont know who posted this but you knw who u are. rondo is THE best point guard and the celtics is THE best team in the nba. they work hard and they believe in themselves. unlike other teams they have a greater amount of chemistry.for your information they did not look at the bad side of "MAR"BURY they looked at the positive things that he could bring to the team. and also i dnt knw u but i bet u aint even good enough to clean their sweat off the fucking floor. so what we say to our haters in boston " THANK YOU CAUSE YOU GIVIN US A JOB THAT WE LOVE DOIN", and thats makin yall hate. so FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
