Former NBA player Stephon Marbury really does not like Stephen A. Smith. He has been beefing with the ESPN personality after he made comments about Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving.
Marbury accused Stephen A. Smith of being a race traitor in the wake of Smith’s lengthy rant about Kyrie Irving on ESPN’s “First Take” last week.
Responding to a tweet in which Smith said of Irving, “We are witnessing one of the most delusional athletes in American history,” Marbury wrote, “We are witnessing one of the biggest uncle Tom’s on the planet in @stephenasmith.”
The former All-Star didn’t stop there. He later said Smith “breaks down black athletes for gain and fame.”
In response to this tweet, one fan asked when Smith is going to get the “Will Smith/Chris Rock treatment.”
Marbury replied that “It’s coming.”

As noted by Smith himself, Marbury’s beef with the ESPN analyst goes all the way back to 2009.
“I’m not going to go off on Stephon Marbury. But I will say that Stephon Marbury has had a problem with me since 2009 because we thought he was a bit bizarre when he was eating vaseline,” Smith explained in response to the former athlete’s criticism. “Literally on video, like it was a bunch of cheeseburgers. Like gobbling vaseline, crying, later admitted he was depressed.”
This beef won’t be ending anytime soon.
