... Maybe this Marbury guy isn’t so bad after all: “Stephon Marbury, who becomes a free agent again today, believes star players should be cautious about signing with the Knicks because of Mike D’Antoni’s offensive scheme and the way the organization treats people. I wouldn’t want to play in that system,” Marbury told The Post. “That system can’t win championships. You can’t win championships if you don’t talk about defense.” [ Marc Berman/NY Post ]– A snippet of LGT’s Short Play: Choo: Hey, where did Hafner go? Martinez: He had to leave for another 3 weeks.

... In an attempt to provide a public service to his fellow NBA players, Stephon Marbury elected to go public with his feelings about the Knicks and informed those considering playing for New York to think again.“I wouldn’t want to play in that system,” Marbury told The Post. “That system can’t win championships. You can’t win championships if you don’t talk about defense.

Marbury: Don’t Sign With Knicks
Obsessed With Sports —
... If you recall D’Antoni was at the helm of the Suns when GM Colangelo sold Marbury’s suffocating contract to New York. Marbury had signed a four-year extension, worth more than $75 million earlier that season. It seems that five years later D’Antoni still can’t get out from under the burden of that Marbury contract.

David Lee's Bank Account is About to Disagree with Stephon Marbury Regarding Mike D'Antoni
The Baseline —
Mike D'Antoni has been called many thing by many people. Most center around accusations that his system is all style, no substance, and will never do anything for anyone of substance.

... seven of the 10 years and were inside the Top 6 the other three seasons. In those 10 seasons, the Knicks made it to the NBA Finals twice, Eastern Conference Finals twice and the Eastern Conference Semis five times. We lost in the first round of the playoffs — a seemingly fictitious place that we got a peep show of once in the past seven years — just once. Approximately five months later and we can deduce that Stephon has become an ardent reader of The Suave. I mean, how else can you explain this? “I wouldn’t want to play in that system,” Marbury told The Post. “That system ...

... The New York Post is reporting Marbury is advising against superstars against signing with the Knicks next summer because he feels you can’t win a championship in D’Antoni’s system. Now, this may be true but it’s coming at a weird time.

... good thing I’m not a business owner yet because there would be no New Year’s or New Year’s Eve days off and there would definitely be no Friday or Monday off if Independence Day fell on a weekend…New Year’s is contrived and Independence Day should be celebrated on July 4th.
