<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p> The Knicks still will not say whether Stephon Marbury has been docked a game's pay -- about $182,000 -- despite an Associated Press report saying he will be fined.</p> </p> A league source said the Knicks still were discussing whether to go through officially with the fine and file the paperwork with the Players' Association. If they don't fine him, then Marbury's claim to The Post that he was given permission by Isiah Thomas to go home carries more weight. If that's the case, it begs the question on why Thomas would give Marbury permission to leave at the start of a huge four-game West Coast trip. -- <font color="#000000">New York Post</font></p> </div></p>
