Honoring The Pearl


The Wizards retired Earl Monroe’s jersey over the weekend, and Peter Vescey recalls The Pearl (who, interestingly enough, had a bit of Marbury in him back in his Baltimore Bullets days.)

So are the Knicks shackling Marbury like they did the Pearl? Just remembered Jake Shuttlesworth’s speech about Monroe from He Got Game.
“But the Knicks, they put the shackles on him, man, you know, on his whole game.They locked him up, like in a straitjacket or something.”

Is it just me or does that picture of the Pearl look exactly like Omar from the Wire?
