Stephon Marbury refuses to play again! Time for him to go

Tweet

There is a report that Marbury refused to play again the other night against The Detroit pistons. I just read about it on espn. They are very short handed at the 2guard spot. With the recent trade of Jamaml Crawford, Cutino Mobley not being cleared to play anytime soon, and Nate Robinson sidelined with a groin injury, it has been reported that Mike Dantoni once again asked Marbury to play. Marbury refused to suit up again. Wgat do you guys think? Should Marbury do his job and suit up since he is still getting paid? I personaly think he's hurting his chances of signing with another team by just sitting on the bench, and if these reports are true it's not a smart move on his part. But maybe he's getting a little revenge on his new coach. At the start of the season Dantoni said Marbury wasn't in the teams future plans and would be inactive. The problem is that team president Donnie Walsh had no idea that this was the coach plans not to use him. We have all heard the stories about marbury not being a good team player and being on his own planet at times. But I don't understand how you have a guy on the inactive list that isn't injured. They need to stop playing around and either buy out his contract or try to trade him which seems impossible as I don't think any team would want to take on his salary. It's funny because Marbury has been saying all the right things thus far. That he understands the decision of the franchise moving in another direction, and that he's willing to do what it takes the team to win, and he's going continue to practice and be ready to play when called upon. But now that the knicks are short handed, he has been asked to play twice and has refused both times. As a proffesional athlete getting paid millions, he has a job to do. Wether he's on the inactive list or not, he should do the job he is asked to do. I do understand from his point of it, that he does wanna play, and sure he's said all the right things, but I think we as sports fans know deep down inside that he has been pissed off with not getting any playing time. I think the Knicks have misshandled his situation for too long and it's time for him to be released from the team. All he's doing buy not playing is hurting his chances if he wants to play in the future. Dantoni made a mistake in my opinon by not playing hom from the start, and now he's getting a little pay back for it. I'm kind of on stephs side on this one even though I think he has his head in the clouds most of the time.
