Profound sympathy for don marbury. life goes on... and one more person in heaven will be on marbury's side. life goes on... the cosmic show goes on.... the story of life and the story of love continues... life is precious, don't let it slip it away, and live your precious life, every moment of it, all of it to the fullest and grandest. Peace and Bliss
It is sad. Losing three people close to you in three weeks? How horrible. I think I'll ease up on my Marbury hating for a while.
Word in NY is that the Knicks knew and didn't tell Stephon. Apparently his cousin called a radio station today to tell them that Marbury would not play for the team again because they denied him the opportunity to see his father before he died.
If thats true, that would be the most messed up things i have ever heard. I hope Marbury will drop 69 points on the Knicks when he get traded to the Rockets
How in the world does no one inform him that his father was taken to the hospital? That just boggles my mind.
I strongly considered suggesting that watching the Knicks play was the cause of death in all three of his recent losses, but I decided it would be classless. Show some decency!
probably to keep him from being distracted so the knicks can win a game for their purpose-filled season. if that is the case, oh man that is so messed up. so messed up.
I didn't read the articles (not interested), but his dad pass away at the Sun's basketball arena, while watching the game? and Marbury didn't even know about it?
If I were Stephon I would be livid for not being informed. They were able to get Tracy out at half time when Clarenda went into labor.
It's one of the lowest, most unforgivable things that a human can do to another human IMO. I'm pissed just reading this post, I don't know what I would do if I were Marbury. I hope this is just a rumor.
the article does say After Knicks-Suns Game, not "at. not that it matters much now since a life was lost... would seem strange that the knicks would know about that but keep silent about it. how soon after the game did he die? if that is the case, doesnt matter if he had brett favre-like service for that franchise, wouldnt blame him one bit for not wanting to play for them again.
I'm reminded of that story years ago when former Knick, then Pacer, Mark Jackson was invited by Knick's coach Jeff Van Gundy to join the Knick entourage flying back to New York to see his ill father IIRC. JVG is an admirable figure for sure. Miss his influence but hated his offense!
