Friend: Marbury's 'Pride Is Hurt'

DynastYWarrioR6 · Nov 2, 2008

A longtime friend of New York's Stephon Marbury says that the point guard's pride has been shattered by his bench role with the team.

"His pride is hurt," says Rob Johnson, a Queens basketball consultant and friend of Marbury.

"I've known Steph since he was 10 years old and I can tell he's really hurt by this. He won't cause problems. He wants to get on with his business and hopefully play for another team next year. They should just let him go."

Marbury's family is proud of the way he has handled the difficult situation.

"Stephon has been so professional with this whole thing," says Moses Marbury, Stephon's younger brother. "I'm so proud of him, the way he's handling it, being smooth about it. He isn't saying the things that the Stephon of old would have said."
