Stephon Marbury hadn't played in an NBA game in over a year, but didn't show any signs of rust as he stepped in and immediately contributed during his first game as a Celtic last night in the team's 104-99 victory over the Pacers. Marbury came off the bench and scored 8 points in 13 minutes just hours after the press conference announcing his signing with Boston had been held. Starbury (now pronounced 'STAH-berry') was having such a good night that he didn't even say anything crazy after the game. He told reporters, "It went the way I was praying for it to go...The whole satisfaction of the night for me is that we won." New Coach Doc Rivers said he was surprised and impressed by how good Marbury's timing was after so much time off. When he first entered the game at the end of the first quarter, the Boston crowd gave him a standing ovation. Such a reaction probably isn't as likely Wednesday when he returns to the area to play another team he left with its fair share of headaches, the New Jersey Nets.
