The road to redemption and back to the starting line up could begin tonight for Marbury against the Celtics. Maybe Duhon isn’t a shoe in after all.
“Stephon Marbury has been filling in nicely in his reserve role, but Mike D’Antoni may take a look at him in the starting lineup tonight when the Knicks host the Celtics. According to a team source, the coaching staff has discussed starting Marbury tonight for the first time this preseason. D’Antoni huddled with Marbury in the locker room after last night’s 114-106 preseason victory over the Nets at the Meadowlands. It would make the most sense to start Marbury at shooting guard, replacing the struggling Jamal Crawford, who was 1 of 6 for four points. Or he could conceivably replace Quentin Richardson in a three-guard offense.”
