Stephon Marbury was waived Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2009, by the New York Knicks, ending a turbulent five-year stint in which the former All-Star couldn’t lead his hometown team to a single playoff victory. Marbury is one of the highest-paid players in the NBA, set to make close to $21 million this season, but has not played a game for new coach Mike D’Antoni.
Well this is good news for most New York Knicks Fans. I’m sure there is still quite a few of you out there that wanted this guys to play for the Knicks this year. I never supported him and I’m very excited about this.
He is finally out and not our problem.
With our luck if we do qualify for the playoffs this year, there is a very good chance we’ll see him with the Celtics. But i think we can worry about that when the time comes.
