“Oooo a pregame ritual huh? You know I usually try to do something different each time. I know some of the guys in the Liberty lockerroom hate that, because they like doing the same thing and get mad when I mess up some superstition”. Says Marmeladov with a huge smile on his face. For a player that is know to be very quiet not outspoken player his pregame ritual is as what you might expect. “I usually just listen to music or talk with my teammates, I like having one of those rubber balls that I can run around the hallway and bounce around and run with like a kid. It keeps my legs moving and lets me not worry about the game a head. But I like to mess around with my teammates to loosen them up. I try not to do things in the same order or I try doing something different each time just so I don't fall into those crazy rituals that some of the guys do haha. I hear Fox North does something with a Banana, not entirely sure ya’ll might want to ask him about that. But I usually mess around if they seem like they are down with that, if not I just do my own thing, don't want to get people upset at our own teammates before the game”.
