Marbury: James joining the Mavericks will immediately make them a championship contender
6686 Sports October 26th Former NBA player Marbury was interviewed by Brandon ‘Scoop B’ Robinson and talked about LeBron. He believed that if LeBron joins the Mavericks, they will immediately become a championship contender.
Marbury said: "You put him on that team, they are competitors. I think for him, he needs to play with that kind of player group to stay competitive at this age and not have to bear too much load."
Marbury believes that the Mavericks will allow LeBron to maintain his body at the highest level of competition. Surrounded by capable scorers and playmakers, LeBron can focus on leadership and efficiency rather than shouldering the full workload every night.
"This is a perfect basketball configuration. Every time we step on the basketball court, you are actually doing load management. The Mavericks are a team that is more suitable for him, where he does not have to bear such a heavy burden." Marbury said.
LeBron’s contract with the Lakers will expire at the end of this season, and he will not be able to return to the game until mid-November due to sciatica.
