Starbury on “Mike’d Up”
Highlights:
- “Me trying to be the leader of the team, it’s to try to convince them of a way, how, we can go steal a trophy. People are going to think we’re crazy for talking like that, but if you believe it, you can achieve it.”
- “I think I’m going to average like 10 points, like 12, 13 dimes, like 2, 3 assists and about 4, 5 rebounds.”
- “Isiah Thomas is a “man’s man and he can see the light.”
- “We always wanna win the trophy. We call that shiny stuff. That’s what the trophy is.”
- “I don’t shoot for that [the trophy] anymore. I shoot to win because I shoot to win, and that’s it.”
- When talking about his supposedly frosty relationship with Kevin Garnet: “Yeah we got along. We played basketball together, we didn’t go home and sleep in the same bed with each other. We played basketball.”
- At one point (7:05 into the video), Marbury gets a phone call, “I’m sorry. That’s my better half. That’s my better ‘ho. My better half, my wife.”
