Stephon Marbury Wages Twitter War Against Paul Pierce
While he was a part of the Celtics, Stephon Marbury was on his best behavior. No disruptions, no distractions and not much of an impact at all.
Now that he's no longer with the team, though, no need to be diplomatic, right?
Marbury took to his Twitter account to relay some choice statements about former teammate Paul Pierce:
Paul pierce is better than kobe bryant yes or no. Ask him what does he think. You know how I feel about kobe so we won't speak on it. LIL.
(For those of you who need a refresher course: During his 24-hour live chat earlier this year, Marbury declared, "No, I'm not the best player in the NBA. Kobe Bryant is the best player.")
As if that weren't enough, Marbury followed up that statement with this one:
Go tell Doc [Rivers] and Danny [Ainge] your daddy's that some one you fake truth. Your style is played out number 34. The hood knows your so far gone.
After wading through the confounding punctuation and grammatical errors, it seems that Marbury only wants to say one thing: He is not a fan of Paul Pierce. At least he kept those sentiments quiet while he actually had a job in the league.
To this point, Pierce has yet to retaliate via his own Twitter account.
