Marbury Call Eddie House A Bum

[Datruth345]

NEW YORK — Less than two minutes into the Knicks’ 101-90 beat-down by Boston, Stephon Marbury started trading Tuesday night trash talk with Eddie House.

"You’re a bum," Marbury declared more than once on one trip down the floor.

"You should be worried about [guarding] Ray Allen," House responded on another trip.

"I’m worried about you," Marbury blurted back before later calling the Celtics’ guard "[unprintable] garbage."

smh...
who still thinks marbury is a good fit for this team

aside from all that, eddie has had a great preseason, i cant wait until he is raining down threes when it counts

[MyInsatiableOne]

@ Marbury and the Knicks...the guy is a bonafide loser, no way around it.

[Bad-Thoma]

Starbury's still in the league? On the Knicks!? I didn't know New York still had a team!

[Celtics_Champs]

Marbury is just jealous because he wanted to be playing on this celtics team. But eddie is.

No offense to House, but if I am marbury, I would have said the same thing too. Eddie is a trash talker. Good player, not nearly as good as marbury was, but a hall of famer in terms of trash talking.

LOL. I don't mind it, of course Marbury is going to be pissed off when Eddie House is raining 3 after 3. Eddie has been known to have a bit of a big mouth himself, so it probably wasn't all Marbury. I've seen posters on other boards and elsewhere on the net calling Eddie House 'a bum.' I wonder why that is, is it because he has been around the league so much, or is it because he doesn't have the body and game of a prototypical basketball player? He has been having an amazing preseason, and usually when someone is taking 17 shots a game on this team, I'd call them out on it, but Eddie has been shooting so well that I want him to keep gunning. This is the first time playing 2 seasons for a team since he was with Miami, and I think that may do a lot to help his rhythm and consistency. The guy is a long range jump shooter and his field goal percentage looks like that of a center.

It is because of his mouth. He talks all the time, and talks like he is LeBron. He's a good player. He just doesn't have the stats to back his mouth up.

But he has a ring!!!! So he can go crazy now!!

I watched that game. Marbury got to start and quickly went back to his old ways, like jawing with Eddie as if it was a playoff game against MJ. The guy is a talented athlete, but he has the attention span of a flea. House must have thought it would be easy pickings to get in Marbury's head and disrupt the Knick's rhythm. Sure enough, Celts soon up by 20 and Knicks out of sync. And nobody on the Knicks was trying to get him to shut his trap.

If Marbury wants to call an Eddie a bum, why not try Eddie Curry. That guy is the Knick's only legit center and he can't keep himself away from the buffet line long enough to play one minute a game. Very sad. Knicks are going to be better this year but there are some pressing issues to take care of.

Now, Eddie House been the biggest story in the preseason for the Celtics, IMHO. So bring on the trash talking and then sit back as the fastest trigger in the East knocks a few treys through your grill, Stepped-On.

[GuyClinch]

Heh. Truth be told Eddie does kinda of remind you of some Rec. Player - but this amazing Rec. player that never misses and won't shut up. Go Eddie. I wouldn't say Eddie is some 'story' of a preseason. He does his thing and he does it well but he has always been that kind of player.

lol - I would hazzard a guess that Garnett has called players worse things than that...

[Kefa461]

It's all fun and games.......

[Rocky5000]

I found more, the unprintable garbage part is probably the best.

“You’re a bum,” he shouted. But then, he got deep: “You’re nothing! You’re caught up in basketball. Get caught up in life.”

Get caught up in LIFE?! LMAO. What kind of trash talk is that? You're kicking my ass in basketball, but in life...man you haven't even sold some cheap shoes for a bankrupt company. All that Zen talk is affecting Marbs.

As a Knicks fan, I can tell you, Eddie Curry is NOT a legit center. He's too fat, dumb, and lazy to even be called a basketball player at all. He's just garbage. Perhaps moreso than Jerome James.

This is comedic gold. Marbs is such a nutcase. House does talk a lot of trash, and probably deserved a bit of jawing in return, but "get caught up in life"? What does that even mean? LOL

[nasbahceltic]

Man this dude is beyond crazy....

[greenbeans]

He's just crazy jealous of Eddie, can ya blame him? Eddie has the exact role Steph was hoping to have on this team.

Alls I know of Starbury is he had Kathleen Decker "caught up in life" in that truck lol

[Red2]

man I love eddie's fire and passion. he will make up for some of posey's off the court contributions. we don't lack passion on this team that's for sure!

[DorfonCeltics]

It sounds like a couple of friends endulging in some healthy trash talking. Did Eddie and Steph every play together in Phoenix?

[SonicYouth34]

Knowing Eddie, he was probably running his mouth too. The funny thing is, Eddie is the better player of the two right now.

[wetsthebed]

Got no problem with trash talk.

[AlCelticFan]

You’re caught up in basketball. Get caught up in life.

I think Marbury was insulting Eddie for practicing too much.

[bruno sundov]

Houses shooting is just being carried over from the finals. He was lights out in June. Every thought there is to be had on Starbury has been said already.
