Marbury and Steve Francis


1. Both losers (on the court) in the NBA
2. Both had unbelievable amount of talent somewhere in their basketball career
3. Both Combo Guard
4. Both listed a PG but more of a SG
5. Both played for the New York Knicks
6. Similar Age, Size
7. Both are actually good character off the court
8. Both becoming injury prone for the last couple seasons
