Re: does dev marble

If he continues to improve at this rate I would say yes. I think he has a high basketball IQ and has shown he is willing to put in the work it takes to improve. If he develops a jump shot, look out!

Not until he gets more tatoo's, a concealed carry permit, makes a disgusting amount of Money, starts talking smack, and becomes a cartoon character. I think he is way too nice a young man to make it into the NBA.

Do I sense negative racial stereotyping?


I think Marble's issue is going to be athleticism. He is not super explosive and has merely average lateral quickness. Not sure he can play NBA defense. His offensive skill is coming along. He is one of the few players with proper height/skills to fit a prototype NBA position.

He also needs to reproduce with as many ho's as he can. I guess that could wait until he gets to the league. But he needs to start soon if he wants to catch up with Shawn Kemp.

Re: does dev marble

I've been saying this all along. Roy Marble Jr. is the real deal. Guy has all the intangibles, once he gets more consistent behind the arc and perfects his pull up jumper he is going to be unstoppable.

Re: does dev marble

If he can continue to develop a shot and offensive ability as well as improve on defense he could play sparingly. He's got very good handles for his size and he's very smart with and without the ball.

I thought he was talking about "Birdman" for Denver?
