英语文摘：Marbury suspended for one game by Knicks

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28 (Xinhua) -- Stephon Marbury Friday was suspended one game by the New York Knicks after he refused to play this week in Detroit.

    Marbury was also docked nearly 400,000 U.S. dollars in salary.

Marbury said coach Mike D'Antoni never ordered him to play in Wednesday's 110-96 loss.

New York Knicks guard Stephon Marbury hangs his head seconds before the end of their NBA game loss to the Toronto Raptors at Madison Square Garden in New York January 11, 2008.

    Marbury will not be paid when he sits out Saturday's home game against Golden State and will lose an additional game's pay. He earns approximately 21 million in salary this year, drawing about 190,000 a game.

    Marbury was not in D'Antoni's plans after the coach was hired, but trades and injuries have left the Knicks short-handed. After two trades last week, Marbury suited up at Milwaukee but declined to play. At the time, D'Antoni said he wasn't angry and didn't consider the decision insubordination.

    On Wednesday, however, guard Nate Robinson missed the game with a groin strain, but Marbury was not in uniform.
