Because he's usually been the best offensive player on his team and did not have the luxury of only taking high EV shots, and he was not coached properlyl and thus took too many threes.

Take a coach in the 3rd imo.

I'm assuming any round, but anything other than round 9 is a pretty big leak imo

Like the year he took as many shots as Kevin Garnett. Or more than Marion and Stoudemire.

Hell, he took 18 shots/game with Joe Johnson, Amare, and Marion on the team. gtfo. The guy's a ballhog and he always will be. He's gonna shoot more than Charles Barkley.

He looked pretty awesome running the Athens Olympic team into the ground.

So I take it you're not taking Larry Brown as your coach?

You guys are forgetting the intangibles Marbury brings to the table. He's a great character guy who every coach wants around the locker room. He was team captain of the Knicks for a reason.

They are both pretty freaking bad to me. Bynum has height but is injury prone and has put together one third of a season well. Congrats he can dunk.

Marbury is a cancer, his teams get better when he leaves, he's a ballhog and I can't stress it enough..the dude is ****ing bat**** crazy.

Chris Mullen is very good, but you are going to have to convince me that he's a great pick for Stockton. John was a better PnR guy than a penetrate-kick out guy.

I think there are better picks available to pair up with Stockton.. Mullen may be BPA right now, but I don' think he fits with your guy very well.
