Hate Marbury or love him, he has to start at point guard for the Knicks . He is the only real starting point guard on the Knicks roster and there is a reason why Duhon was a back up to Kirk Hinrich his entire stay in Chicago.
“Sounding unusually contrite and un-Starbury-like, Stephon Marbury said last night he’ll be happy to come off the bench this season and promised he won’t cause a “distraction” if Chris Duhon is named the starting point guard. One day after predicting he would be the opening-night starter and one week after he said he would be OK if the Knicks cut him, Marbury backed off after an epiphany following yesterday’s practice. Marbury said he’s been wrestling with this issue for several days on whether he could live with being a reserve for the first time in his career and playing shooting guard.”
