Stephon Marbury Is Being Called Out, Kind Of
As if Stephon Marbury weren't having enough trouble — and hey, who's having more trouble than a guy making $20 million while "rehabbing" an "injury?" — he's now being called out by old Coney Island pal Jamel Thomas....

This Seems Fitting
The Knicks have lost intern-boinking virus Stephon Marbury for the rest of the season. Marbury, who had hoped to return this year after undergoing ankle surgery to remove bone spurs, will now be relegated to hopping around by himself, most likely in a pair of cheaply made (but very affordable) sneak...

Dissecting Captain Crazy
Watching the Knicks these days is a brutal, glorious experience; last night's loss to the Celtics was the nadir in a season full of them. And the centerpiece of the madness is, of course, Stephon Marbury, the Tracy Jordan of the NBA. He's mesmerizing; we can't look away....

All Aboard The Marbury Express
Someone told us this morning that Stephon Marbury is basketball's version of "30 Rock"'s Tracy Jordan. This makes a lot of sense to us. You get a sense that, deep down, each is probably a good-hearted person, but they're so many different kinds of crazy that it doesn't even matter. And they're almos...

LeBron James And Stephon Marbury Are Not Pals
It's about time that LeBron James weighed in on this Stephon Marbury business. Sayeth The King, in the Cleveland Plain Dealer:...

Marbury Decides Against The Nuclear Option
So Stephon Marbury played for the Knicks on Wednesday — albeit $180,000 lighter in the wallet — saying "I'm positive all the way around. Whatever happened in the past is in the past." Damn it. Apparently some sort of deal with Isiah Thomas was brokered, and the skeletons will remain in the closet....

Let The Mardy Collins Era Begin!
Just when you think the New York Knicks can't possibly implode any more dramatically ... they find new and inventive ways to self-immolate. And this one's fun too: There might even be more Isiah Thomas dirt than we had imagined!...

Where In The Heck Is Stephon Marbury?
Seriously, now ... what the heck is going on with the Knicks and Stephon Marbury? One would think, after a team gives a job to the woman you humped in the back of your truck, you'd have a little gratitude. No loyalty in this world, we tell you....

Marbury Wants You To Know That Only He Sells Cheapass Shoes
Considering he has testified under oath that he had sex with a Knicks intern in his car — and then helped get her a better job! — Stephon Marbury needs all the good PR he can get. Hence, those cheap sneakers he sells, which help inner city kids become more like Stephon Marbury, which is totally a go...

MSG's Odd Defense Strategy
Time for an Isiah Thomas trial update: You know you've missed them....

Isiah Thomas Trial Takes Nasty Turn ... Thanks To Stephon!
We are the furthest thing from a legal expert — we legitimately had to have "billable hours" explained to us earlier this year — but one would think, after yesterday's testimony in the Isiah Thomas sexual harassment case, Isiah and MSG would have to be in some serious trouble....

Eli Manning Makes 'Em Laugh
Roger Director, author of I Dream In Blue, a book about following the 2006 New York Giants that is released today, was at the Jets-Giants preseason game over the weekend and filed the following report. Kind of...


Well, Expect The Quality Of Hoops In Italy To Decrease Dramatically
Knicks fans, you're in luck! You've been waiting for someone to ship Stephon Marbury's ass to some other country for years now, and it looks like he's gonna go ahead and do it himself. You're gonna have to wait a couple of years, though....

Marbury And His Better Ho Half
It's a few days late, which we can attribute to the holiday, but if you haven't seen it yet, it's probably time to experience the Stephon Marbury interview from Sunday night. Strap in, and enjoy. We're not sure what's going on with him here, and we're not sure we want to. He was delighted to feel h...

Stephon Marbury Has Something In Common With All Of You
Namely, he doesn't like Stephen A. Smith. That delightful zinger was the outro for Stephon Marbury's new talk show, called... actually, I don't know what the hell it's called. But it exists, and that, to be honest with you, is more than I wanted to know about it in the first place....

He Can't Even Play For Isiah
It's been a week or two since we checked in with the running joke that is the New York Knicks. As it turns out, it doesn't look like the dream pairing of Stephon Marbury and his "father figure" Isiah Thomas is going to function as seamlessly as we all thought it would. Things reached a low-point l...

This Baby Is Not A Public Relations Stooge
Continuing in the grand tradition of cute tiny babies being terrified by professional athletes photos — a genre that hit its pinnacle with this legendary shot — we present this photo of Stephon Marbury, about to be backhanded by a child who doesn't want those cheap-ass ugly shoes....

Stephon Marbury Is Really Hungry For Some Reason
One of our favorite jokes on The Smoking Gun is the big list of backstage demands all the different rock stars have. There's something beautiful about learning that Kansas insists on being provided prune juice....
