I was a high-school kid. I went from high school, from New York, the melting pot. I grew up around black, white, Chinese, Puerto Rican. Then I go to Atlanta. It was a shock. I was in my contract year. Taylor, I love Minnesota.I love playing basketball here. You guys drafted me. You gave me my first opportunity to come here and play basketball. Whatever, I get it. I understand. And they got mad because I laughed.After I won my first championship, in China, Kevin McHale was the first person to try to get me to come back to the N. And then they was getting ready to build the statue.I was, like, How do you leave that? I had those first And1s. Normally, somebody of your calibre would sign an endorsement deal with Nike or Adidas or what have you. You were thinking differently.Why was that? I wanted them to pay for all my trademarks. Because if you can make products at this price, and sell it to people, I can definitely go into their gold mine. I made that popular and cool, period. And I was delighted and happy to do it, because I come from the ghetto. I come from the projects.I come from my mom struggling to afford buying sneakers that you could get killed over. Like, one kid, he got, like, every edition. They tried to make kids feel bad about it. Not everybody got to like the shoes. Where you have big brands speaking to the people about my brand. I know LeBron James. I was around him for thirty-eight days.Now they can go and buy ten pairs of shoes, fifteen pairs of shoes. Different styles, all different flavors. And now they have this opportunity to be able to live this luxurious life, but inside of the hood. With somebody [like me] that they knew could hoop, that was hip, that was loud, that was active in the community, that shows love, that got fly.Somebody that was doing the same thing as them. I literally went to the store, picked up the shoes off the shelves, paid for the shoes, walked to the Garden, put the shoes on and got busy. It was too much. Nobody on Earth ever did that before. And when you do things that nobody ever did on Earth, it can get a little scary. When you were growing up in New York, how were hip-hop and basketball intertwined?We grew up in the era where everything was hot. All these m. Heavy D, the Fat Boys. All of the people that we looked up to. MC Lyte, Queen Latifah. That whole era was like a surge. We were the ones that got to experience this surge, this new wave and this new current of energy that was flowing on earth from a sound, from people making music, going into your brain and powering you—getting you hype before the game. But I was also, of course, especially, thinking about Kobe. I have always thought about you two together—and Iverson, too.I was hurt. I was messed up, just from the perspective of life. Because we grew up playing with these guys. You know his will, you know his plays and how he approached the game of basketball. You can literally see his spirit on the court anytime you play against him, because of his love and passion for the game.He got a chance to embody that, and it became a mentality, the Mamba mentality. I hate how we lost him. You know, I felt that his basketball spirit and my basketball spirit knew each other better than we knew each other as people. And friends. The year-old Beijing Royal Fighters coach is now in his 10th year in China, and is already plotting his next decade in the country. I think I will work to 80, 90 years old if I could live that long.I don't have a desire to do nothing while I'm living," the global basketball icon tells Xinhua. Now, 10 years later, Marbury sits in Beijing as a Beijing legend and global symbol of the Chinese Basketball Association.I think people could see that it was just natural, wasn't forced. I wanted to be here. I wanted to integrate. I wanted to be a part of the culture," Marbury reveals, looking back on the past decade. I never thought that I would live here for 10 years. I never thought that I would be able to win championships here and have a statue, a green card.The statue, which was sculpted in honor of his efforts with the Beijing Ducks, was an unmissable sight for Marbury's mother when she visited her son in China's capital. Stephon Marbury is honored by Beijing with "honorary citizenship" and a statue in front of the Beijing Ducks Arena. It was a moment not only for my mom but for my whole family to experience because it was something that has never happened to us before.This could happen. One of the basketball players can get infected. Anything can happen. There is no point or no purpose. It has to be a global effect. Marc J.
