It seems the future of our team isn't thought on in a high regard. http://www.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=474352

right and if it was asked last year it would be Curry by a landslide. Difference? Curry hardly had any coaching since coming out of HS, Kaman stayed 3 yrs in college, didn't he?

Kaman stayed in college, but Curry hasn't made any significant to his game since being in the pros. Kaman has.

CAREER 289 23.1 52.9 67.1 100.0 4.9 0.6 0.3 0.9 11.8

Curry numbers have jumped as much as Kaman's. I think that Kaman got some coaching and Curry didn't. Kaman probably has a better work ethic I won't argue that because it seems Curry coasts on his high athletic talent.

Do you think it helps playing with Brand?

Of course it helps. I'm just bothered at how much we gave up to a guy with questionable work ethic, that's rebounding hasn't even improved since entering the league.

Actually his rebounding went up every year but 04-05, then went right back up this year again.

Curry, but nonetheless, Kaman is a real nice prospect. I think he and Brand have quite a future together as the Clippers backcourt. That team is gonna be good for a pretty long time now.

No center in the game has the combination of athleticism, hands, and size as Curry right now. Kaman is a nice player..
very strong... and is a much better defender. I take Curry on O and Kaman on D. Curry is showing will to improve however.
He could be the league's best center in two years if he keeps up the hard work. Can you think of anyone with more upside
than Eddy on Offense in College or High School? I can't.

You can't knock Kaman....You gotta give him his proper respect. The dude is a good player. He had to get used to the speed of the NBA. Last year I saw him grab a rebound and go coast to coast even going behind the back with the dribble then eventually finishing with a flush.....the guy is more than a prospect. He is a good player.

Last Night Curry looked great but I wasn't sure why he was benched so long.....he wasn't in foul trouble and he was having a great game.......fatigue? injury? WTF?

Curry has a nice touch around the basket and should be the 2nd best center in the league behind Shaq, but the problem is he doesn't care....

He is so athletic and should get 10 boards in his sleep and if he was in shape he would almost always beat his fan, but face facts he is never in shape, doesn't rebound, commits terrible offensive fouls, and can't pass

Also can't shoot from outside 5 feet from the rim. Everyone needs to get off his jock already he is going to be an above average player but no star.
I want to leave something that's going to stand for a long timeI want to leave a legacy,I want to leave tradition.I want to leave an imprint,a blueprint in terms of how people play,and how they coach and how they respond when they put on the Knick uni.

I think he's already an above average player. His minutes and shot attempts are all over the place. He was killing the Clippers but he just didn't play alot of minutes......if Curry can get his shot attepts over 10 and maybe stay on the court for 36 minutes on average we really would see something.

Still there is no other center in the league like Curry. He is a Bear....a fat lazy Bear, lol.....he is getting better as the season goes on....and slimmer too if you notice.

Knicks gotta keep Curry regardless.

We should be excited that he is getting in shape as the season goes on....

He will not be able to stay on the court because he runs through people
