Hooped Up

A day without a Marbury story is like a day without unicorns in heaven.  Since D’Antoni is not at all interested in playing Stephon Marbury and he is hardly practicing with the team these days. Marbury is interested in practicing with his old high school basketball team at  Brooklyn’s Abraham Lincoln High School to maintain his conditioning, according to the New York Daily News.

“I think I’m going to start practicing with my high school team,” Marbury said after practice Thursday in Greenburgh. “Seriously. I’ve already called the coach to see if I can run up and down with the guys and at the same time help teach the younger guys the NBA game.”

After one look at Starbury’s workout video below it’s a shame that the Knicks won’t give him a break.  He looks like he’s in the best shape of his life.

UPDATE: Frank Isola of Knicks Knation now reports that Marbury will not pursue workouts with Lincoln High.
