Walsh says he's not punishing Marbury

 
Donnie Walsh won't say how long Stephon Marbury will be gone before he's gone for good. The New York Knicks president has ordered Marbury not to attend practices or games while they are working toward a buyout, but said Tuesday it wasn't a punishment. Walsh just felt the point guard shouldn't be around the team while both sides are seeking a way to get him off of it. (link)
