I was pissed at the Celtics for even contemplating picking up Marbury. I'm from New York and i've been hearing about this saga everyday on sports radio.

I now believe that this is a good idea. I coach varsity basketball here on Long Island and we have only one person who can handle the ball and run the show, and he's only a sophomore in HS. When he gets in foul trouble it really exposes our weaknesses.

God forbid Rondo gets hurt or gets in foul trouble. Eddie House is very shaky handling the ball, and i'd rather having him spotting up or coming off screens and knocking down shots.

I hope that this experience for Marbury was humbling. I look at this situation as an insurance policy for Rondo and for some scoring off the bench down to take some pressure off of the big three to carry the load.

Yes, Marbury is an @$$hole, I know, I went to basketball camp and he was there and left after one day saying that there was nobody there that could compete with him (which was true). That shows a lot about his character. However, I feel This is a win - win situation for the Celtics. Remember, he's a 20pt - 8assist guy. If he acts like a #^&#^&#^&#^&, they release him, with a very minimal cost to the Celtics.

I know many will disagree with me, but that's OK!!!!
