Marbury rehashed, with marbury talking buyout, warriors needing a REAL PG, should we?

    Until he actually is bought out there’s little point in talking about it. I think Nelson is smart enough to go after Starbury if it becomes a possibility, even on a bad day he’s a lot better than any point guard we have now

I say do it. As long as it’s for cheap and for one year only. Keep him on a short leash. If he plays like he’s capable of then keep him. If he’s the same ol team killer then let him go. It’s worth the risk.

but if the buyout goes through as it looks like it will I’d probably offer him the minimum. Not much to lose at this point. If by some miracle he can somewhat resurrect his career and become at least somewhat effective that would probably be an upgrade.

No offense to the guys we have at the point right now but CJ is our most effective PG and he can barely move his shooting arm in that monstrosity of a brace he has to wear. It would be a very Webber-ish type gamble that probably wouldn’t work out but I don’t think he could really hurt us that much. If it doesn’t work out just cut him.

Nellie’s just gonna go Marbury, KAz, Jax, Maggette, Andris for 40 minutes apiece and try to win as much as possible.

anyway, odds are he’s headed to Miami if he gets bought out.

love Marbury. I predict an average of 18 pts., 8 ast. for the Warriors and a playoff run.

Our pg play is pathetic. I move the ball around better playing outdoor pickup games, we need a pg who can get our guys in the right spots and make a few plays now and then. There is nothing that can be hurt by going after Starbury, its not like Nelson or Watson is a lottery pick we are trying to develop into our future pg, and Williams seems to have talent but can’t put it all together.

nelson being sent to d league…i wonder if that means the warriors are trying to clear up a roster slot for starbury….after all jackson did want him in the beginning of the season…

this point ill get anybody since what we got ain’t working anyways

Everyone thought the same about Baron and Jackson before they got here.. that they were straight up cancers to any team/coach that they would play for… and I really feel that Don Nelson brings out the best outta “knucklehead” players..

..so with that.. i say.. BRING ON STARBURY.. sorry Al.. you were my man up until you started complaining.. well at least the #3 will be open if/when Marbury gets here…

Jackson was once considered a cancer to the Pacers. A change of scenery and teammates can do wonders to turn around a good player. And don’t fool yourselves… Marbury is a good player.

He’s been in the league since ‘96. He’s played a bunch of games. He had high assist averages in Minnesota, NJ, and PHX. His numbers dropped in NY and “chances are” that it was a team chemistry thing.

ok, so he’s a head case, all that means is he’ll fit right in our cast of characters. He’s still a good shot and he’s in good shape. Plus, you know he’s going to have a major incentive to produce big time to rub it in the Nicks and D’Antoni’s faces. Monta is going to need to be integrated back in over time – it’s not the same team that he played with last season – and we don’t know if he’s going to be 100%. Plus, with Starbury on the roster, I bet the Oracle would start selling out again. People love to embrace those shunned bad boys.

even a 50 yr old gary payton looks good

Anyone who has payed even just a minute amount of attention to this Warrior incarnation knows that The Starbury Risk/Reward is basically a moot point. We let our point guard walk last season because our ownership did not find his financial burden and long term situations including age and injuries as a good fit for our future. We are putting a product out on that court featuring the WORST point play in my recent memory.

Enough of these “trade machine” situations, cancerous allegations against Starbury and incessant whining over the Baron situation. Get over it. Now is now and as Herm Edwards said a couple of years ago “We play the game to win!” That’s what are team is out there to do, and especially with our offense missing it’s laid-up spark why on gods green Earth would we not make a move on Marbury. He’s still capable of 20+ points a night and any where from 6-8 assists a game at only a 4/5 of a season commitment! Are there certain individuals on this site too close to the forest to see the trees? Monta and Starbury in the same backcourt? Monta being the slash and Marbury being the tank he was before Isiah attempted to destroy the entire legacy of the Knicks? Life is a series of taking chances and I’m not banking on jockeying for draft position perentially! As we were constitued with Baron at point we still would have NEVER WON A CHAMPIONSHIP!

But we sure were fun to watch were’nt we, with a super athletic veteran point guard who balked at no challenge. I loved every minute of the last two years, even with the underlying notion pervading through me that I’ll probably never see a Warrior championship in my lifetime. Baron was a bigger risk at he time but times have changed. I’m putting my money on Jackson’s boy Starbury, because even in Jax case and many others that have come and gone in the bay, a turnaround is one trade to Golden State away.

Let CJ get a little more time starting, a little more experience, and let Nelson light a fire under his ass, and he’ll be a decent point guard to have in the mean time. I mean, it’s not like we’re going to make the playoffs.. let’s all be realistic here, we’re not.. we’re simply not. So let Watson develop along side Belinelli, who should be more aggressive (agression in Denver game was nice) and in a few yrs, we’ll be ok at every position. Thank God we have Andris and Jack or we’d seriously go 2-80 record this season!
