Isiah is working on that. Two years in a row Isiah has drafted white players. Last year was David Lee and this year was Balkman.

That makes 3 with Mardy.

Thanks for that. I forgot about him.

did you guys forget about Morris? 4.

Dude, your an idiot. Morris is black.

nice. way to throw it back in his face

The basic problem is that Eddy Curry is fat. If he loses some weight, these stats will improve.

I wonder if his low carb diet is work. I know mine is working

What I don't understand is how we can just ignore the fact that Curry is at the top of the heap in terms of post scoring. He did this with all kind of attention from opposing Defenses and we haven't really perfected the offense with him at the core of it. If you think you've seen the best of Eddy or this team you're sadly mistaken. This was a decent initial effort, but this team can play better than it did this year and I believe now that we've made it thru a season guys like Mardy and Balkman will benefit greatly from the experience. They're likely to see more minutes next year and to improve from last year in terms of comfort level in the NBA.

1. Curry does pass the ball and he did it more frequently and better as the season went along. I believe he'll be able to add a faceup game and that will help with the offensive fouls and the assists.

2. Curry may not ever be a great rebounder or shotblocker, but if he can make improvements in those areas to at least a decent level, which is entirely possible, he'll be just fine.

3. it's not just about Curry, but the team as a whole. We'll likely have a better defense next year as we will probably see more of Steph, Q, Balkman, Lee & Mardy. Those guys will give us a much better defensive presence.

I really would love to see Curry trim down and see how that effects his game. I think he'll feel more spry and that may be just what he needs to pick up his effort level on the defensive end, without fouling all the time.

We really must stop being so negative towards Curry. I think the guy has flaws and if he didn't we wouldn't have a chance to get him. Still he has the ability to be more and I believe that he wants to get better. just like i'm pulling for any other young knick player to improve I feel we should be the same way with Eddy. He's worth the risk, because he's not that far from the potential he has. It only seems like he's far off, but in reality he's not. What are we talking about here. About 2-3 more bounds, a block or two and another assist per game? All of which are mostly mental focus and effort things, well within his ability to fix.
