marbury0312.jpgIt was another rough night for Stephon Marbury, as the Celtics' backup point guard went 0 for 6 in Boston's loss at Miami. Marbury is now shooting at just under 26 percent since his arrival in Boston.

As for the Celtics' other new acquisition, Mikki Moore, he hasn't exactly been rising to the occasion in Boston's time of need, either. He hasn't scored a point in the last two games -- games in which the Celtics really could have used the help (Glen Davis left Sunday's game with a sprained right ankle) -- and last night he committed five fouls in just 18 minutes. Since the Celts picked up Moore, he has had 23 fouls, compared to 24 points and 16 rebounds.
