Curry gave Marbury a wide open feed last night for a 3 than Marbs basically ariballed. The crowd booed Marbury but I liked that Qrich and Curry went and gave Marbury some support. I have said for a year that Currys assists would be higher if we had guards that could hit the spot up jumper. His assists are coming up though. He had 19 all of last season. He already has 17 and I bet he will have around 80-100 this year. I really think he has a outside chance of being an all star this year depending on who chooses the reserves
I LOVED how Curry just exploded in the 4th, speaking as a fan of the Raptors, Curry looked well, scary I think is the word. Or Shaq-like Curry: 19.1ppg-7.3rpg-58%fg

There are few people on this board that will find fault with the team even if they are on a 10 game winstreak. That's really pathetic.Yeah we've had some bad years and last year was the pits. A fan sticks with his team through thick and thin, to be honest even though we are losing I am enjoying the game. That's more than I can say about the pile of horse manure last year. They have not found the right button to push yet hopefully they will real soon.

Who are we kidding here, there's like no Centers in the league, Those numbers are good but not great. He still has to show some energy out there. with all the and ones, he still act as if it was a simply lay up, no emotion whatsoever. I like his progression, but Im not fully impress.

Besides Q and LEE there's no passion in most of these guys, especially on the defensive end. The face ups starks, mason,ewing, oak, MJ, ECT use to have when defending was relentless. They use to hike there shorts up look you dead in your face and was like.... cmon lets get it popping. ENERGY Passion.

Curry's not the solution, but he's a big part of the solution.
And that's a big step forward for the Knicks. I'm very happy about this. He may never be a Patrick Ewing, but he will be a top 5 center in this league - and that's a big asset for the team.

If only the Knicks would make a move for Derk Fisher. Stephon has totally lost his shooting touch he sucks now. Before he was very accurate with his shot now he misses like crazy and its getting to the point where he puts up a outside jumper and I know he isn't going to make it. I just hope Isiah wakes up and make Q and Crawford his back court soon. His job is on the line and Marbury isn't the man who is gonna save it.

Curry is a keeper folks but he needs a H20 jumper to help his assist total badly.

Wow. V, DFisher, is actually a great call. And he got be had real cheap. Problem is we only have expensive pieces.

Watching knicks in 60 i noticed Isiah took a really stupid timeout they were about to get the ball into curry and then they called the itmeout which led to a marbury turnover trying to... you guessed it.. get the ball to curry

Curry is becoming one of my favorite players in the team and this is not because of his 20+ pt scoring. His defensive tenacity is mind boggling and his defensive rebounding is astounding. Curry, Lee, Q and the Balkster are my favorites. I don't mind Stevie Franchise and I like what I have seen with JJ2.

I also love the way he rebounds, where before he waits for the ball. Now he is ripping them as they bounce off the rim.

I know you guys all ready shot down this player but is there anyway to get Ray Allen here. I know he's old but i'd love for him to be here is that open kick out from curry. If seattle is going to blow up the team i'll give them Frye and crawford and draft a new SG and have ray as a shooting mentor. what do you think??

Seems to have learned how to Jump.
The new new core: Randle, RJ, IQ. Maybe Mitch. Future pick. Future trade. Future FA.

depends how you define a center, but id say by realgm's standards, he'll be a top 5 center pretty damm soon.

shaq
yao
camby
JO
CURRY


Unfortunately, he'll probly only be a top 10 big man.

Still pretty good though...


Okafor
Bosh
Yao
Shaq
Garnett
Duncan
D2
Randolph
Boozer
CURRY


Not bad...

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

I dont think Shaq will ever be a 20-10 guy again. I only worry about Centers in comparison with Curry. I really think Curry can be the 3rd best after Yao and D Howard. I remember last season how people raved about Bogut being so much better than Curry but curry flat out destroyed him and the Bucks. Curry still has to keep trying to get in great shape. I cant remember which coach it was but one well known coach said the biggest key for bigs is getting in shape. I believe he is right. I watched yao tonight. Its nto easy to drag 300 pounds from post to post, set picks all night and bang for position all night. I think bigs have the hardest jobs on the court physically

Ray is what? 31? I can't get behind a trade like that for a 31 yr old who is starting show some signs of aging. For that much youth? This is why I would trade for Iverson if it meant getting rid of Stevie or Steph and Frye, but I feel that is a different scenario, IMO.

Ray and Iverson are the same age but its Iverson that has shown more wear and tear to me in terms of nagging injuries. Plus, Ray makes more sense for the makeup of this team. He gives us the perimeter shooting we desperately need. Not saying I would do either of these deals, but Ray makes more sense especially if we are stuck with Marbs.

Ray makes a lot of sense if the goal is to win now, but if the goal is to build for the future, trading for him is a big mistake.

he'd make sense if you could get him for any package involving Francis or Marbs, but since that's not happening, you're right, he's not a good fit for the longterm vision of this franchise right now.
