Marbury reportedly close to leaving Knicks

Story @ RealGM

Stephon Marbury says he has at least one firm offer on the table from another team, and he is now willing to put the $1 million giveback back on the table, the New York Post is reporting.

Marbury had taken the $1 million giveback off the table during their stormy Dec. 1 meeting. Marbury put it back in play because at least one team has now made a commitment to him, allowing him to make the $1 million back.

Walsh last offered Marbury to take $3 million less. Marbury has been told by Knicks officials the matter is in owner James Dolan's hands, and he's been awaiting word for several days.

"I'm hoping," Marbury told The Post. "I don't know what the real reason would be if they didn't take it. I can't fight a billion-dollar company. I've been waiting nearly a week."


It will be interesting to see who that team is and whether it's anyone he's been linked to already, such as the Celtics.
