I actually expect bigger and better from him as well. In the real world you can criticize and expect more at the same time. In lala land you cannot, I guess.

If you think he is one of the harder workers on the court and the team than I feel you are SETTLING.

5-7 rebounds a game the past two seasons. Less rebounds than when JKidd was here. Can't beleive you don't have a problem with that

I said he is a hard worker. You promised me you would puke if I did, so I stepped up. Then your reply essentially agrees with me. Please don't tell me you are "one of those".

Actually I said I would puke if you said he was a hard worker. You did and so did I. What we agree on is a completely different topic and that is that we think Eddie can improve. Two different topics, but as I've learned from posting with you, often times that doesn't matter.

We keep talking about Eddie's offense. Oh he could average 22 and 8. I don't care if he stays at 19 pts or averages 25. What's important, and what will affect wins for us immediately is for him to give an effort on the boards and defensively. He is the biggest and strongest player 99% of the time on the floor. He has a rebounding advantage over every player that walks on the floor. He should average more rebounds than he does. And if he gave an honest effort, he would. He should be already averaging 19 and 10, and until he does, the criticism will not go away. 7 rebounds for one of the strongest, and athletic players in teh game is inexcusable. Except by you of course.

I'm pretty sure the coaches will be hounding him to rebound better and will tell him to do many of the things I want him to do. They will not just sit back and hope that age will simply make him better. They will harp on him until he does. Coaches think alike my friend.

I think Curry stepped up how hard he worked this offseason and that was a good sign.

So, You don’t dispute that Curry was doing the things I said he did, and in my mind that’s hard work. You disagree, bully for you. We agree he needs to work harder on the court.

And please, again, stop the “Rembee has low standards and is excusing Curry’s low rebounding” shtick. It’s misrepresenting my position. You have a tendency to do that, I’ve learned this since posting with you.
