Sure, it took him a bit longer to get to the actual matter at hand than we might have liked, we didn't really need to know the background of every single person who works

  one of any number of woeful NBA franchises? Of course not; people want to win games. Hell, most of us don t want to work where we do, but we have to eat. If you want to play in front of a large Chinese population, then I hear Beijing is a good place to go. Otherwise, learn to love

  Here's how much mileage Stephon Marbury's getting out of that interview with Bruce Beck on Mike'd Up - he's now giving other interviews about that interview. And while nothing will ever touch the original for its bizarre stream-of-Starburyness, the follow-up with Gus Johnson is pretty good too. For one thing his kinetic energy seems to have
