ESPN: Stephon Marbury May Be Boston's Problem

2009_01_stphe1.jpg Will Starbury be headed to Newbury Street? ESPN's sources say that the Knicks point guard, told to stay away from the team since December 2, could be headed for a comeback with the Celtics. The Celtics apparently want to add some depth and Marbury would be relegated to a "backup"/ "secondary" role. Interestingly, "It appears that the biggest obstacle to such a move is Marbury actually securing a buyout from the Knicks in a timely fashion as opposed to reservations Boston might have about Marbury's impact on team chemistry." Ah, yes, a buyout from the Knicks—Marbury wants $21 million, while the team would rather pay less. This should get interesting!

    Trade him to the Detroit Lions. He'll ride the bench so what does it matter which sport the team plays?

    oh hell no!!! you want to pay this guy 50 million for his buyout and then he gets to coast on the bench of boston to get a championship ring? fuck that. the only way this deal is acceptable is if the knicks give him two coupons to arbies and he implodes the celtics. I highly doubt Garnett would let this douche ever join him again.
