Marbury: DNP-CD
Did Not Play, Coach’s Decision. I don’t think I’ve ever seen those letters and been so happy at the same time. Coach D’Antoni did not play Marbury during the Knick’s debut, and as an added bonus they won the game. I hate to be a hater, but Marbury just really got under my skin these past couple of years (and even in Minnesota), and seeing him knocked down a peg brings a guilty smile to my face. Hearing the New York crowd chant his name and boo him at the same time was an oddly refreshing feeling. But you know what, I think I’m officially over it. Mike D’Antoni brought a little closure to my heart, and I’m sure the Knicks locker room is a happier place as of late.
