Marbury ban lifted

By MARC BERMAN

The Stephon Marbury ban was lifted this morning.

Isiah Thomas said at this morning's shootaround that Marbury will be at tonight's Garden match vs. the Hornets -- the first game he will attend since his ankle surgery Jan. 17.

A Marbury confidant told The Post last Thursday that Marbury had been instructed by Thomas not to attend Knicks home games. Marbury also was under a gag order from Knicks brass.

Thomas said this morning that Marbury will speak to the press for the first time since his surgery on an injury that is expected to keep him out the remainder of the season.

Thomas and Marbury have been embroiled in a feud since November, when the Knicks coach/president attempted to remove the guard from the starting lineup for second-year man Marty Collins.

Last week, Thomas did not include Marbury's name in his projected backcourt for next season, an indication the team either plans to trade him or buy him out of his contract.

Marbury's appearance tonight likely is the organization's way to make amends after his ban became public.

Awesome and transparent at the same time!

What a joke, even the PR guys have to be like there is no way to spin anymore, just start backpedaling until we hit a wall!

Would you want to be the PR person who drew the short straw and has to "prepare" Marbury for his press conference tonight?

What do you think the Knicks are using as leverage to make sure he plays nice? A promise that they'll trade him or buy him out this summer?

Here's where Spygate could do some real good. Like Marbury should have his confidant secretly film footage of him reading que cards from a Knick PR rep during the PC.


Better Yet Marbury should just AWOL the conference pull a no show.

Did you hear we got Zach Randolph? A southpaw... fake with the right, shoot with the left.

I agree GKF. He's just gonna be like "Me and Isiah are cool. I'm just battling back from this injury, praise the lord. There's only one place I want to play and that's New York."

I don't wanna see it but I think I will be forced to....cuz if I'm home I just can't ignore that the Knicks are playing.

Marbs is gonna say no comment a lot, and he is gonna give answers like "duh, you didn't know" and he's gonna have a arrogant tone like he's the **** and we are the corn in it.

Go Nets!

Not just any southpaw; a left-handed southpaw.
