STEPHON MARBURY GOT A JOB… IN CHINA

Published: 18 January 2010 1:16 PM ESTPosted in: NBA

The last time we saw Steph he was rabblerousing on YouTube and UStream. But apparently his unemployment benefits ran out… because Starbury got himself a new job. Marbury will be joining Shanxi of the Chinese Basketball Association. He’s expected to arrive in China next week. Shanxi head man Wang Xingjiang said that Marbury won’t make a huge salary and mostly wants to promote his line of shoes.

Shanxi coach Bob Weiss, formerly head coach of the Spurs, Hawks, Clippers, and Sonics, will be the man tasked with controlling Marbury. And Shanxi hasn’t had much luck with that in the past. They’d signed Bonzi Wells last year and terminated his contract when he didn’t return from vacation on time. But that would NEVER happen with Steph.

STARBURY SIGHTED SHOPPING IN SOHO

The world has been lacking something lately — and that something is Stephon Marbury. It’s been a while since we saw him smoking weed, getting into a car accident, shirtless, ranting, or crying on UStream or YouTube. So what has Starbury been up to lately?

Steph was in Manhattan over the weekend with his family. The former Knicks point guard took his kids Xaviera and Stephon II shopping in SoHo. Unsurprisingly, they were soon mobbed by paparazzi and “fans” (I don’t know what else to call them). And no, I have no idea where that bike came from or why he is sitting on it.  Shouldn’t this guy have a reality television show by now?

STARBURY THREATENS ESPN WITH LIFECASTING

At BigLeagueScrew, we’re now in the camp that the Steph stuff isn’t that funny anymore. No, he was not a great team member during his Knick years. But he wasn’t the reason the team was horrible. So we have no reason to wish him ill will. That’s why it’s a bit troubling so see a former 20/8 man crying in front of his computer. Is he on drugs? Is he just depressed? Is it an act? I don’t know the answer. However, I did come across a video of Marbury where he covers a variety of topics. First, he rants against ESPN for giving him a bad reputation. Then he talks about how a Greek team decided not to sign him but that he really wanted to play in Italy. He signs off with a semi-threat to ESPN and says, “365 days, 24/7… you’re gonna see me.” Here’s the video:

FORMER KNICKERBOCKER OFF HIS ROCKER

If you didn’t know, Stephon Marbury has been broadcasting live video of himself via JustinTV and UStream. I tried watching his first 24 hour broadcast last week and could only manage to keep it open for about 15-20 minutes. In that span, Starbury went through his morning routine and was stretching and doing crunches in front of his camera. A lot of the broadcast was filled with a lot nothingness but Marbury didn’t disappoint.

Later in the “show,” Marbury started crying. He also danced in front of the mirror in his bedroom. One of the more interesting quotes from the broadcast was when Starbury said, “No, I’m not the best player in the N.B.A. Kobe Bryant is the best player. I don’t care about the N.B.A. Those days are over with.” I don’t know if he’s on drugs or actually crazy, but he’s definitely not right. In addition to his broadcast, his tweets have been bonkers as well. He’s even replied to himself in the past few days… many times (though that may be due to the UStream or Justin.TV chat function). The crying video and dancing picture are after the jump.

STEPHON MARBURY OPTS FOR INSANITY

By
theOCD
Published: 22 July 2009 9:24 PM EDTPosted in: NBA

Stephon Marbury is a man of many words.  Typically, he strings them together to creates statements that make little sense.  One of my favorite examples is when he appeared to be drunk on Mike’d Up and even answered his cell phone during the taping.  Since then, he’s also done an interview at a bus stop.  Most recently, Starbury took the time to connect with his fans (?) by using UStream.TV.  There’s really no way to preface the insanity below.  Read on…

Bong hits for everyone!

Bong hits for everyone!

Via Ball Don’t Lie:

• “John Stockton is a computer. He’s playing chess with you. He’s doing stuff to you before it even happens.”

• “We gotta bring the haters over. Once we bring ‘em over, we goin’ overpopulate.”

• “Eddie House’s kid is funny as hell.”

• “Mandarin is gonna be the language in 15-to-20 years.”

• “I’m telling you what it is: I know I’m the best point guard in the NBA. I don’t need anybody else to tell me that.”

• “Can I play lacrosse? Yeah, I can play lacrosse. Jim Brown played lacrosse.”

• “I’m not doing a movie like Bassy … yet. I got a movie coming out Christmas Day. Brooke Shields is in it.”

• “Danny Ainge, as a player, was a killer.”

• “That’s not bling! These are angel wings around my neck!”

• “How did I hurt the Knicks? Tell me how I hurt the Knicks. (pause) Exactly. (laughs) The Knicks hurt you!”

• “Dwyane Wade, you don’t guard him. You try to contain him.”

• “Can I rap? Yeah, I can rap. But I don’t. Rap is just fast talking.”

• “It’s not easy. There’s a lot of games you want to sit down, but something keeps you going.”

• “That is bull [expletive]. [Expletive] … bull. Bull [expletive]. Sheeeeeeeeeet.”

• “Nothing wrong with wanting to go home.”
