I was at the game at the UC, and even Bulls fans I was next to were asking me why Marbury wasn't being used. And I honestly had no idea. I mean he was 1/3 one of which was a blocked shot that could probably have been called for a foul. He didn't play bad at all, so to the guy above who mentioned the Bulls taking a 7 point lead when he was in, get a clue. The Bulls took a 7 point lead because we went brick after brick after brick.
I honestly have to wonder what would have happened if Marbury had been in instead of TA or House when he appeared to do little to nothing on offense for that period of time.
Like Marbury or not, he still knows how to handle/move the ball. And he was doing a lot of physical training outside LA during his off-time, so he is in physical shape to keep up with these young guards to some extent.
