2007年,是Stephon Marbury的轉捩點,在NBA的生涯開始走下坡,而父親也於該年離開人世。Marbury最近接受電視訪問時承認,他當年患上抑鬱症,曾經想過自殺,了結自己生命。
Marbury說:「你知道我在紐約人發生的一切,你知道我的父親離去,他也知道我的個人品牌拆夥,這令我慢慢失去對生活的信心。」
引用“When everything went on with the Knicks, and, you know, my father passed on, the [Starbury] brand was — it was basically losing life slowly.”Marbury認為,這一切的打擊,大過籃球生涯快要結束而對他的打擊。不安的情緒一直在困擾著他,而他的腦海裡總是呈現這些不好的經歷,感覺自己被束縛。慢慢地他就有了想自殺的想法。
引用“And I was watching it. And I think that was hurting me more than seeing my basketball career going in the direction that it was going. … I was trapped in my thoughts. I was trapped in how I felt about how I felt I was treated. I was trapped with decisions that I made.”
“I wanted to die.I wanted to kill myself some days. I did. … It wasn’t about basketball. It started to become about me. Because I was that depressed and I was that sick.”
幸好,Marbury在中國重新開始,在訪問時,他承認中國已經是他第二個家。Marbury在北京隊贏得兩次CBA總冠軍。
Marbury是1996年黃金一代的成員,職業生涯平均取得19.3分及7.6次助攻,並且在2001年及2003年入選NBA全明星賽。效力木狼期間,他有「獨狼」稱號。而他紐約的出身,令他加盟紐約人初期時受盡歡迎,更有「紐約之子」的稱號。不過最為人熟悉,就是當年他自稱為「NBA第一控衛」。
