The AMT Rumor Mill According to Stephon Marbury’s Twitter account page, he has pretty much all given us a hint that he is going to retire from the National Basketball Association. Said Marbury on Twitter: “Basketball is just a game. I will say it again. 14 years 250 million. Hold that. I’m good. Thank you Jesus for the blessing.

“Going to Minnesota would have just complicated my life a lot. It was a risk and I didn’t see it so clearly. My priority was the NBA and it was impossible for the Minnesota Timberwolves to pay my buyout clause, so I wanted to stay home.” It looked like the Minnesota Timberwolves wasted a player when they took Ricky Rubio as their team’s first pick in the NBA Draft just a couple of months ago. I knew this was a bad choice from the start. Rubio made his decision of going back to Spain and play with his DKV Joventut [...]

The Celtics were considering in doing a sign-and-trade with a third team but couldn’t find one. It was reported by ESPN.com Insider that Daniels’ former team, the Dallas Mavericks, had interest in bringing him back to his old squad but Daniels rejected. I don’t blame him, I would rather have a championship caliber team besides a first-round exit. Also, the Pacers were considering in re-signing him but it was [...]
