There are 2 specific moves that eddy curry must have made over 100 times this season where he has been called for an offensive foul.... You would think by now the coaching staff would notice this and be able to work with eddy on correcting it.... The 2 moves are:

1) when eddy catches the ball on the block deep he will rush to make a move and while bringing the ball to the center of the lane he raises his inner elbow and turns it right into the chest of the defender to create space but he just barrels over him... It looks like a move that has been specifically taught to him and it is not working for him, they need 2 figuire out a better way for him 2 create the space to get off his jump hook cuz he gets called for this probly at least once a game

2) when eddy gets a drive and drop off or a long offensive board around the ft line maybe a few feat in , where its far enough from the basket to need 2 make a move TO the basket... He always just puts his head down and barells thru the lane.... I have not seen eddy shoot a jumper all season.... He needs to learn how to shoot a jump shot 10-15 away it really isn't that hard im sure he could his form on his free throws is pretty good.... The main thing he needs to learn is PATIENCE and how 2 read the position of the defendrs gaurding him... A pump fake or spin move once in a while wouldent hurt...

U would think mr aguire post expert could see these things and help edyy out he hasent improved them all season... If he could eliminate those 2 moves and develop a 10-15 ft j I think he would b unstoppable

Don't assume that because Eddy isn't doing it that Aguirre isn't teaching it. It seems like Eddy is a slow learner. I have been making these kinds of threads since the beginning of the season.

they r 2 pretty easy 2 spot and correct things... i havent seen him ATTEMPT ONE JUMP SHOT ALL YEAR... its inexcusable.. i blame the coaching staff.... i dont think he is THAT hard headed that if they tell him.. hey eddy... if u get the ball 15 feet out its ok to take a jumper hes NEVER gunna listen

His FT shooting really does not suggest that he should be shooting more jump shots! Maybe they're trying but he's hitting around 30% or some bad % in practices.

yeah I've seen him shoot a 10 footer. i think once or twice like around the ft line.

I think Aguirre too often gets a free pass. If he's so great, why aren't we seeing ANY improvement on the D from our bigs?

one step at a time. Ask yourself if you have seen any improvement from the Bigs. The answer is yes.

Telling Eddy to try to get dunks is not telling him to commit an offensive foul. Hate to burst your bubble.

.............................. He said he never talks to eddy about offense... meaning - he never tries to help him avoid offensive fouls.. which would be a very easy thing to correct i believe
