    I've read rumors on ESPN message boards about Rockets making a trade for Stephon Marbury going down this coming Tuesday? Does anyone else know about this? :confused:

    If you read it on ESPN message boards, then it has about 100% chance of not happening.

    Hey we're already a losing team, Marbury would fit in very well......

    But I've heard ESPN reported this and a radio Station in New York confirmed this?

    There is no way that JVG would want Marbury on his team.

    I would be stoked if the we got Marbury.

    A Marbury/Mcgrady pick and roll has the potential to be the most unguardable
    play in the league. Defenses would not be able to play Mcgrady the way they have been the last two games since Yao has been out. Who are you going to guard? If you double Mcgrady off of it, Marbury burns them to the hoop or stops and pops, and if they double Marbury, Mcgrady would make them pay in an assortment of ways. Marbury is the other playmaker our team desperately needs. His acquisition would give us the real Tmac back.

    oh and Mcgrady and Marbury are tight so there would be no personal fued between them in the future.
