He did not play was not on the bench.
Mike D was asked why and Mike said he had no idea, something about Eddy saying he couldn't go, and you'd have to ask Eddy. Shaking his head while saying that.
Trautwig/Tripuka seem to think it's fishy reporting that "he has a "bruised knee" or something like that".

He didn't seem ready to play the other night but now he's purposely taken himself out of it as well and nobody seems to know why.

Fricken Curry is like a reincarnation of Jerome James! How is it possible that we ended up with two' Jerome James?? It's mathematically impossible. Thanks a lot isiah.

The guy is GARBAGE. Pure garbage. Has been since the moment he got here. 19 & 7... Please, I don't wanna here it. Dude just doesn't give a flyin' ****. I don't think I've even seen a pro athlete with such little pride. It's disgusting with the amount of money he's making.

Even Jerome James says Curry is wasting his talent.

give jerome some minutes and you'll see the differnece right away.

Curry is a mess. Unless you give him all the love and promise him the world he can't seem to motivate himself to try hard. It's sad

I don't know why he doesn't throw JJ in there for a few minutes if Jefferies can get on the floor

That's on the coach. The coach should be encouraging Eddy to give it more effort.

When I said "it's sad" I meant that it's sad that D'Antoni isn't motivating him better.

He's out again tonight. Now supposedly there's swelling above one of his knees.

NEW ORLEANS - If it wasn't so sad, it would be funny. Eddy Curry is expected to be out tonight vs. the Hornets because of a sore left knee - not the one that kept him out the season's first two months and change.

Tim Thomas also likely will sit out with the flu.


Curry said the trainers told him the quad above the knee swelled up because he's unknowingly been overcompensating. Or some junk like that.

That's two straight games Game reviews Curry will miss after his 2:38 stint of action in his season debut in Big D. Bottom line, Curry is too heavy and when you are too heavy, your body doesn't respond well to stress, especially in a speedy offense he's never played in before.

"I don't think it will be a lingering thing,'' Curry said at the morning shootaround at New Orleans Arena. "The swelling's going down every day. Coming into this road trip, I wanted to get used to playing. It wasn't meant to be. But I'm not discouraged because I don't think it's serious.''

The alarming part is the Knicks New York Knicks were a minus-9 when Curry was on the floor. After the game, Curry admitted after the Dallas game he may not have the plays down pat because of his absence. plays. You could tell Mike D'Antoni must have read that remark because he seemed very frustrated this morning about Curry's status. D'Antoni probably feels he may have cost the team the Dallas game by using Curry as an investment for the future. And now this...

why play & work when u can sit & collect millions from Dolan's payroll? Marbs, Turd, Fugazy & Fat Albert seem to have mastered the "How to get paid for doing nothing" style of basketball (tho for Marbs it's mostly involuntary, I'll be fair).
