If Rondo gets traded, do you believe Marbury can start?

Does he still have it? I know he didn't really show much last season, but he didn't have the time to get it, and he was clearly rusty.

Discuss.

No. Wouldn't be a good fit even if he did still have it, IMO

If we trade Rondo, the rest of our lineup will likely be loaded once we consider the player(s) we get in exchange. So there wouldn't be much pressure on Marbury or whomever is the starting PG. Marbury would be up to task, IMO.

Depending on where the team ultimately decides to go after tonight's draft/game one of the regular season I believe Marbury can be a very effective PG for the Celtics ESPECIALLY with a training camp under his belt. It's funny because at the same time a year ago this would have been seen as implausible and nothing more then a mere joke. If it does come down to that which I highly doubt it will, I'm more then sure he'll do at the very least a decent job.

Of course he can start. Can he be a starter on a team that wins a playoff series let alone gets to the Finals? I doubt it.

Yes I do, and I think Doc+Danny feel the same way.

Who is the better pick and role PG between the two. I think you take that PG and put him on the floor with Garnett and Pierce.

This is a joke right?

Marbury can't even start on a NBDL team.

Seriously, he'd that bad now.

If Rondo gets traded we are the number on destination for Miller, Kidd, Bibby and (if bought out) Nash. There is no way Marbs is are starter come opening night.
