Curry's defense is awful, and it's a major reason why we were bad this season. However, we have a whole number of other major reasons.

i could care less what he or anyone else on this team says at this point, i want to see him come into next season in shape & w/an improved FT shooting touch... a developed midrange jumper would be nice too, but i'm not expecting it... same goes for all the other players on this team... we've heard it all from every player... how it's going to be better this year than last, blah blah blah, but it's always the same thing when it comes down to the W-L record... same old inconsistency, same old lack of focus down the stretch of games, same old porous defense... can we see some improvement in those areas now? some tangible results next season in terms of the W-L record would be nice.

HIs quote is acutally a good one. We got better but still underachieved.

Sound very canned and Isiah like.

IF Curry is that insightful then more power to him.

He actually has a good attidude and is universally liked.

felt the same way after reading it.

It would be nice to hear him admit that a big reason why the team didn't make the playoffs was that he didn't try on defense.

if you think that is the reason, then you have absolutely no clue...

What did he say that was wrong. I think he's got a clue on what he's talking about. Curry's a ginormous 7 foot block of swiss cheese.

So despite the injuries, you are telling me that you agree with the ridiculous statement that we didn't make the playoffs simply because curry Didn't try to play defense? So curry's defense although he spent most of the game was the reason why we lost by 30 to the bulls? and why we got off to these slow offensive starts that put us in the hole 90% of the games this year? bonns comment is just ridiculous.
Do you know the difference between "the reason" and "a reason" (or even "a big reason)?


yea I know the difference but it wasn't even a big reason.

Since when did Bonn or I say that was the only reason ?

Its obviously one of the major reasons.

Now that I REALLY think about it, it's the biggest reason why we didn't make the playoffs. Our interior defense. We technically have a 7 footer who can score but do nothing else. Therefore, we have no big man.

based on what? We're 4 games out of the playoffs. If Curry was even just an average defensive player, where do you think we'd be in the standings? Why is it so outrageous to think that if Curry was an average defensive player, it would make a difference in a few of the games?

come on bonn we would be a lot closer if a lot of other things had happened, a lot bigger than curry's defense which was not as bad as you make it seem. How about as a team hitting FT's wasn't that a much bigger problem? How about the massive injuries? How about awful team defense which does not rest on the shoulders of curry alone? How about the consistent slow starts that we got off to offensively? How about being one of the worst teams in the league as far as protecting the ball? Had we been better in any of these areas bonn we would have been closer if not in the playoffs, regardless of what curry did on defense!

Fair enough. If you're going to blame it on some pesky injuries we can also blame the Spurs for playing in San Antonio and Imus for his remarks.

You're correct but those are off topic. It's possible for all of those things to be big factors AND for Curry's bad defense to be a big factor also. I believe you when you say you understand the difference between "a reason" and "the reason," but no matter how often I say Curry's defense was "a reason" the team missed the playoffs, you seem to be interpreting it as if I'm saying it was "the reason." I can't understand why else you would list other reasons as if they disprove the idea that Curry's defense was "a reason."

Anyone here thinks Curry post here incognito? He gave us some Hatorade to drink with his quotes.


They aren't really in harmony with a few Lovers opinions on this board.

Bonn you said " BIG" reason. There are many reasons why we are where we are, but I highlighted those to you and they are bigger reasons than curry's defense. All I am saying is that curry's defense may have been a reason, if you wan't to go there, but not a "big" reason. Curry's defense is no more of a reason for us missing than, Jared jeffries defense or frye's lack of production this year...

That Bonn is 100 percent a Hater when it comes to Curry, so I wouldn't even why you would try to post to him about Curry. And it ain't nothing wrong with not like a player, I got two of them, but I atlease feel im up front about my hate and how it makes me Bias. Bonn stop acting like you are giving a fair assessment, make your Hateful comments in one post and keep it moving!!!!!!!!

honestly there's plenty of blame to go around, all the way from the players to coaching to management, just like last year. but at the same time you have to remember the good things that were done

Its one thing to blame the season completely on injuries. But its another thing to completely write off injuries has having any type of impact on why we have slid down the stretch of this season. Why is it so hard for people to be objective and take everything and put it all together and judge the team that way. Is there really that much dislike for Isiah and his team that people can bring themselves to do that??

well the one thing I like about curry is that he does seem to now realize how much it hurt the team to get off to a poor start and not win the games they were supposed to, even if it took him a whole season. hopefully he will come into Game 1 next year ready to go.
