Stephon Marbury arrested for "Extreme" DUI.: So how's that Kidd-for-Marbury trade looking now, on the PR front as well as standings?

I'm just glad the Suns are taking over in the bad-boy department for the Portland Trail Blazers, who sully my home state with their presence but whose progress I still sorta follow, god help me.

There is no doubt that the Nets scored big in the exchange (across the board). Out East, we're happy to have Kidd in the area. He exudes old-school basketball. However, he's not helped the attendance...yet.

On the PR front, Jason Kidd is a wife-beater. On the basketball side, Marbury is perfect for the Suns, a drive and dish point guard matches that moribund collection of jump shooters as well as anything. Jason Kidd, however is the MVP.

At the end of his career, Marbury will be kicking himself for not staying in Minnesota with Garnett and giving the Lakers a run for their money. Being the star of the team doesn't mean much without the bling bling.
