Free agent guard Stephon Marbury, who played the end of last season for the Celtics, would prefer to be in an NBA uniform again next season. After receiving calls from Miami and Atlanta, the two-time All-Star is optimistic he will get his wish in a process he doesn’t expect to be resolved soon.

The Hawks stupidity would have to be off the charts to sign him.

I wouldn't buy into that story... I mean just think of it?! No way Sund would even remotely consider Starbury... No way!

Yeah, not only would adding another guard be completely pointless and increase the probability of Teague never seeing the court, but it's Marbury. Amazing.

[WraithSentinel]

They have been trying to link Starbury name to everyone. Last week it was Washington. Just ignore it. It is another baseless rumor started by a paper or Starbury agent in order to drive up interest in him. If the Hawks bring in another guard we know it will be Flip.

[capstone21]

Miami can have him. he is nothing but trouble. I don't want him on our roster (talented or not)

[DrReality]

Probably his agent trying to get some leverage for a contract. He is a Heat guy if I ever saw one.

[Guest]

Sure hope not. Seriously doubt it, I mean I think we are kinda getting overloaded here with guards, then again we do have a lot of tweeners. We would be dumb as nails to sign him. The amount we would gain with signing him would be minimal, amount we'd lose detrimental.

Marbury behaved himself in Boston, he knows he has to control himself to make anymore money in this league. And I dont see the idea that we have too many shooters, considering that JJ is constantly doubled, Marvin is still coming into his own, Bibby is streaky, and Crawford is more known for driving. I'll take anyone with talent right now...its our only chance to close the gap between us and the top 3.

[NJHAWK]

Dont worry Floydian, the article forgot to mention that it was the WNBA's Atlanta team that contacted that girl Marbury.

I don't believe that for 2 seconds!!!!!

Anyone who thinks his attitude is fine needs to address his play. Did you know he put up a historically bad sub-6 PER last season in both the regular and post-seasons? How bad is that? Phenomenally bad for someone who should be a mature veteran.

To think we can have all this 24 hour entertainment to ourselves if we just sign him.

Toitally agree.

i've checked out his webcam thing off and on all day.....dude has issues....i'm glad that he's gotten a lot more low-key after the new york thing now and he seemed to grow up a bit...but still-

he's been dancing in front of a webcam off an on all day...singing to the webcam, preaching, complaining about the media.......still has that me against the world attitude.......if you say you've decided not to listen to the haters of the world anymore, why even talk about them? why even think about them? if you want to help a team and truly be a team player, why are you doing this starbury tv thing?...does this help? i don't get him, seems like he has some mental issues.
