Marbury's scoring ability completely exploded Kidd's historical position and popularity.

Marbury's personal ability: lack of signature offensive means

A great point guard must have absolutely sharp skills, such as Nash's appeal, Corey's shooting, Byron Davis' explosive power, Paul's gorgeous dribbling to the extreme, Kidd's calm scheduling, Iverson's indomitable fighting spirit, Billups' big heart and so on. Compared with the best point guard in recent ten or fifteen years, Marbury does not have a most stable offensive weapon.

Marbury's proudest ability is his dribbling (after all, he was born in new york, the holy land of streetball), but he is still at a disadvantage compared with the current ball masters Paul and Owen. A simple data comparison: Marbury made more than three mistakes per game in his eight-year career, including 2.9 times and 2.8 times. But compared with Paul (who never made three mistakes in a season) and Owen (who made more than three mistakes in the first two seasons, while the Cavaliers didn't have James in those two seasons, which was obviously inferior).
