Starbury | The Story Behind Stephon Marbury

[@citythink]

I met him when he was about 12. He stayed across the hallway from me at Syracuse Basketball camp when I was 16 or 17. I lent him some hip-hop tapes; NWA, BDP and Public Enemy... he was the star of the camp even at that age. Really nice kid too, so I’ve always rooted for him. So glad he found his place in Beijing.

[@nasholston5112]

Wow this was actually heartwarming. The man found a place where he'd be truly loved and appreciated.

[@TropicIslandMusic]

To those superb American athletes who dont get drafted - theres still a career in basketball for you elsewhere in the world in this global game.

[@JSB-2Z-2K]

so the world is just for americans?

[@TropicIslandMusic]

@@JSB-2Z-2K 99% of the players undrafted to the NBA are American.

[@hiphiphoorayeventorganizer182]

There was only 1 person from my country who played d2 ball and he became one of the greatest player in my country

[@piggybankvillan]

Loved his shoes, wore them throughout middle and high school and they never wore or tore, simply outgrew them. Seeing they are back available is nice, none in my size however. His philanthropy game was just as good, if not, better than his on-court game. Marbury is just so underappreciated as an NBA icon imo.

[@missayawk]

His family put all the pressure on Stephon to " make it".He had brothers Donald and Eric who were talented H.S and Div1 college players, but never made it big, so Stephon was their last hope.He's overcome alot in his life and it's just good to see him living on HIS terms.He was able to use basketball for success.

Happiness is hard to define.

[@dramaskrybe]

Marbury saw Homer Simpson and thought: That man is on to something.

[@JSB-2Z-2K]

lmaooo come on man

[@attica712]

man stephon is fr a legend in Chinese basketball. Growing up in Shanxi where Marbury had a stint on my hometown team, and he was the first basketball player i’ve ever heard of - even before Yao.

[@CHICKENfat88]

WOW - Unbelievable! Great doc.. keep them coming :)

[@slaub2]

What a great story! There is always a place for you despite what bosses or peers tell you. I just hope that you all and myself are able to find our place sooner than later

[@lovegodschild1430]

I'm glad he didn't turn on his family over his wife because she was a piece of work I met her horrible personality

[@Garf_malarf]

One of the most influential nba players of his generation who doesn’t get enough credit!

[@sunflowerpwr.8821]

People were laughing about him eating Vaseline...but my grandmother let us eat a little Vicks vapor rub and it got the cold out of us fast...so he isn't too far off...it's a home remedy...you just eat a little bit not enough to harm you.

[@Hanzrawrity]

this channel deserves more subs tbh

[@veepeecee8630]

I loved Marbury when he was in the NBA. I always played him on NBA live 😂 glad he’s doing well. He’s a special person.

[@nani6885]

Editing is 🔥

[@TheDrunkenOrc]

This channel is fire

[@tomcollierblognation136]

Such a great story

[@michaelsonsarmiento5943]

Starbury. Never say die.

[@elmascavidal1797]

In 1996’ I thought marbury was going to be better than AI .... 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@thedragontactic]

In some cases, he is better. At least, he is willing to change his mindset unlike AI.

[@JSB-2Z-2K]

Marbury was a great player. Him, Francis, AI, Tim Hardaway, pretty similar game. They would dominate in 2020. Back then it was still the big men's (and micheal jordan) league

[@lovegodschild1430]

My mom made sure I met him at his clothes give away I miss those days my mom was so out going 😓

[@SlicingDicingGamingENT]

Don't forget he was the cover athlete for NBA Ballers and the spokesmen for Steve & Barry's lol. I was a huge Marbury fan when he was with the Suns even had his jersey. I'm happy he got a happy ending in China. I don't think there will be another story quite like his lol.

[@geeknows2189]

The first video i like. Nice

[@yoaiin4189]

This is a nice Video

[@charnrat5734]

Respect

[@travisgman6490]

bruh the audio

[@Joseph-lz5er]

The problem with Marbury was he couldn't really elevate his teammates because he was more of a scoring point guard. Had he been few inches taller and played the 2 guard, he would have been an unstoppable player. There's no denying his talent but he just missed out playing in today's era where PG's like Curry and RW can score and team's build around their talent.

Soulja boy of basketball

[@lucasbooth3614]

I had a pair of starburys as a kid. I have a strange fondness for those crappy shoes

[@smthng]

Affordable shoes can mean wonders for kids from poor families. Unfortunately, peers can be vicious and shame others for not having money.

[@___Anakin.Skywalker]

3:17 daaam MJ got cooked. LMAO over rated. LeBron James is the best ever king and GOAT.

[@gauge6513]
