Marbury Official Celtic, Will Play Today
“I’m just so happy to be able to play basketball again, no matter what my role is… I was lit up because the tradition of the Celtics—you think about the championships, you think about all the guys who have played here. The history speaks for itself.” Stated Marbury, already wearing his Celtic greens.
“I’m human. I make mistakes… I have learned from my mistakes. You’ve got to keep on pushing on.”– Sound familiar? Yes, it seems to be Marbury’s catch phrase as of late. We’ll see how until things star to fall apart. I usually give people the benefit of the doubt, but I’ve already done that far too often with Marbury. This time, I expect the Celtics to be moderately successful, while the whole Marbury thing doesn’t quite work out (if that’s even possible). We’ll get a glimpse of things to come tonight, but don’t expect much, it’ll be much like a first date (and you know how accurate first dates are when used to predict future behavior).
