Just saw on the Chinese TV footage of Stephon Marbury's arrival in China, to play for the Shanxi team. At the airport the photographers and reports were jostling like he was a rock star. According to China Daily, "large crowds of fans . . . hailed his name." In an interview he said he was "shocked" and "moved." LOL Look at him cheesin'! Yeah, he'll be living pretty fat in Taiyuan.
