Not gonna happen.
Jettisoning Marbury is positive step

Here’s a newsflash: Stephon Marbury is a better player than Chris Duhon. Then again, Marbury has been the team’s best point guard since the day he arrived in the ill-fated trade with the Phoenix Suns five years ago. And what has that gotten the Knicks other than a lot of losses and plenty of controversies?
Donnie Walsh and Mike D’Antoni fully understand that Duhon can’t compare to Marbury when it comes to pure talent. But Walsh and D’Antoni also realize that you can’t change the culture at Madison Square Garden without removing the player who has come to symbolizes everything we despise about the Knicks this decade.
Marbury has been the Knicks franchise player for five years and he has done more to harm the franchise in that time than just about any player in club history. It is time to move on. Walsh and D’Antoni know it and deep down I believe that Marbury knows that he needs a change of venue. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up on Miami or becomes a back-up with San Antonio or Boston.
The uninformed will buy into Marbury’s claim that “this will be my year.” Here’s another newsflash: He’s been saying that for the past five years. Maybe things will be better for Marbury in the 2008-09 season but it just won’t happen in New York.
Walsh and D’Antoni need to rebuild the roster and improve the chemistry in the locker room. Removing Marbury accomplishes both goals. We know, we know. Duhon is no Marbury. And that’s what we like about him already.

no specultaion just a dumb idea
nah.the media likes to throw the SPURS name all time. won't happen.
he'd be a disaster. sure he's got all the talent in the world but he's helped ruin teams wherever he's been.
No, thank you. Send this "poison" elsewhere... Marbury is the ultimate "anti-Spurs".
"In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up on Miami or becomes a back-up with San Antonio or Boston."
Ah, well chingao the le can't be edited anymore. You get the point, anyways.
lots of talent...but a head case. i'll pass and i know the spurs have no interest in him. didn't he say he was going to play in italy when his contract was up...so farewell.
100% just throwinig something out there. No reason to believe it could, would or even should happen as far as the Spurs are concerned.
He needs to be in a big market so he can push his shoes--somewhere like LA, Chicago or Miami.
no, not even for the minimum.
Never in a million years would this happen.
I don't think he would want to play back up to Tony Parker
No way the Spurs front office would be that stupid.
not gonna happen, but I actually wouldn't mind it..
if we get a guy with Marbury's talent for the MINIMUM, where's the harm? if he's disruptive, he gets released..if he's signing for the minimum, releasing him doesn't do any significant damage to any cap room..
there's no reason not to sign him if he's willing to play for the minimum..releasing him would be easy..
A back up to Tony, Vaugn, G Hill...who would have thnk it.
Why would Pop and RC inject live cancer cells into the team?
Lets go to the next stupid idea
Stupid idea IMHO
