It's Official...?

STEPHON MARBURY JOINS CELTICS, OVER/UNDER FOR FIRST DISASTROUS INFLUENCE ON TEAM SET AT 10 DAYS

We here at I*Heart*Celtics welcome Stephon Marbury to Boston with open arms, a fake smile, and a swift knee to the groin. This coach-killing, head-tattooed, intern-humping-in-a-van maniac is expected to join the team tomorrow. Awesome. Because Rondo played great with Cassell breathing down his neck. Because the thing they need in the stretch run is an attention whoring, ball whoring dude that hasn't played in a year. He doesn't have an agent. He's been working out by himself. His teammates in New York all hated him by the end and so have almost all of his coaches. And, Doc is a "player's coach" - meaning he lets players do whatever they want.

I'm sure this is going to work out great. Yes, I understand that Tony Allen is hurt, and Gabe Pruitt is both untested and also probably still drunk from last night. Yes, I understand they need a shot in the arm, but dear god, Stephon Marbury!? Didn't we go through all this once before with his less offensive, less talented cousin Sebastian? How did that turn out? One horrible season, a couple gun issues, a traffic stop on 4/20, an interview in the attempted murder of a rapper in NYC.... the bar has been set high for Stephon by his cousin.

I read "The Last Shot" when Stephon was at Georgia Tech and I always loved watching him play. Unfortunately, he's a nutcase. I want it to work out.... but I hope Danny knows what he signed us all up for. And I also hope part of his contract will be staying 90 feet away from all interns.Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2009/02/it-official.html
