Stephon Marbury's refusal to play for Mike D'Antoni and the New York Knicks after the way he has been treated this season has been met with hostility by his 'teammates', the New York Post is reporting.

Quentin Richardson has been playing through injury because New York is down to the bare minimum of players, and he is furious with Marbury's actions.

"The way the situation is, I don't consider him my teammate," Richardson said. "He hasn't played with us all year. He doesn't want to play with us. This is the second time. I don't look at him as a teammate. Teammates don't do that, regardless what's going on with the coach. You don't do that to teammates. We were basically left out there."
