New York Knicks Say "C" You Later Stephon Marbury
Tuesday, February 24th, 2009
The Really: The New York Knicks have really ended the Stephon Marbury drama. It only took 2 years!
In about as anticlimactic end as anyone can pen, the Knicks finally cut Stephon Marbury from their roster after coming to an agreement to buy out the final year on his contract. It’s about time NY. Come on… The deal is that the Knicks back office was holding on to try and either trade Marbury (probably at least recoup some of the legal fees he cost the organization) or get a better deal on the buy out. At the end of the day Marbury is gone and the details of the buy out are hush hush. Good riddens I say! I don’t think anyone can place the blame squarely in the lap of the Knicks or the disgruntled point guard but the fans and the league didn’t deserve it. I mean, do you blame a spoiled kid for breaking the rules or the parents for raising him that way?
