      @ernestomorales8160 9 лет назад +19

      I disagree. I think they would get out of the first round, finally, maybe reach the WCF had Marbury elevated his career. But I still don't think they would have beaten the Lakers, Blazers or even the Kings in the early 2000s. Those three teams were loaded back then.

      He's there as a leader and teacher, not a star player. He's there to teach the young players a thing or two about what it takes to be great.

      Glen Infante They started the game giving the Wizards like a 10-2 lead. The first quarter was a huge letdown. But everything after that was great for the wolves, ended up blowing the wizards out

    I'm sorry, but I could've given him a much better introduction. The video+song was magical and I wouldn't change it at all, but the announcer intro itself could've been better. First and foremost, you gotta call him 6'13.
