Donnie Walsh told the media he supports Mike D'Antoni's coaching decisions, including the one to leave Stephon Marbury on the bench during Wednesday night's opener at the Garden.  The Knicks beat the Heat in their first game of the season.

"I deliver the roster," Walsh said. "It's up to him to play the guys he thinks he can win with."

"I've got to do what's best for the Knicks right now," D'Antoni said.

The team may continue to look for a way to move on without Marbury, but the process remains difficult.

"I wouldn't read the future," Walsh said. "We played one game."
