Here it is, in all of its brand-pate'n glory, with nary a photoshop magician in sight . Starbury took some time to speak with announcers about his new fashionable (and cheap!) head tat during the Cleveland Cavaliers/New York Knicks summer league game. It's probably as subtle as you can get for a head tattoo and it clearly shows that for all of his questionable, unhinged behavior of the past ...

By the way, I can't be the only person who immediately thought of this guy when I heard about Starbury's strange tattoo decision.
Yes, nothing says you're a winner like a head tattoo. I mean, isn't everyone you know that's a winner got a head tattoo? No? Well, I don't know what to say. You must live in the wrong town.

... basketball, you want to wear the same sneakers that the pros wear. The most memorable games of my youth basketball career were played in Gary Payton’s signature Nikes and Shawn Kemp’s Reebok Kamikazes. Did I mention I loved the Sonics? As a kid with lofty hoop dreams, wearing those joints makes you feel more like a real NBA player. Starbury’s affordable sneakers give kids from less affluent families the opportunity to have that feeling. Tip of the reversible spey to Deadspin.

Stephon Marbury Watches Presidential Debate in a Homeless Shelter

... Between the face tattoo, the unreal mike’d up interview, the threats on his Isiah and everything else, we’ve all had some laughs at Knicks’ guard Stephon Marbury. That said, credit where credit is due - NY Mag has reported that Marbury watched the most recent debates at a homeless shelter and the quotes that are coming out of the piece are worth reading: At one point, when the debate turned to the economy, Marbury snorted. “Middle class?
