Stephon Marbury might not get a whole lot of love here in America. But over in China, he's literally turned himself into a hero. Thanks to the success that he's enjoyed with the Beijing Ducks, Marbury already has a bronze statue in China. But apparently, he wants to make the country even more proud of him than they already are.

Recently, Marbury took his his Weibo account (China's version of Twitter) and posted this photo along with a short message. And it seems to indicate that, one day, Marbury plans on becoming a coach so that he can lead the Chinese basketball team to a medal in the Olympics:

Can you imagine what would happen if he did this? The guy's already got a statue. So they might rename a city after him or something. It'll be interesting to see if he actually decides to follow through on his idea to become a coach.
