We had a discussion about this before, but I dont know how anyone can possiblly watch this game and say he has good hands. The ball goes right through his hands like its butter.

I think the refs have officiated his aggressiveness away. You can just see it. But that's no excuse. He needs to be a man and step up.

Could it be the ball...Saw a stat where bigs are losing the ball off passes more this year than in th previous years...Think Frye has the same problem...

it doesnt matter if he gets in good shape b/c he cant grap the ball when hes moving, and he cant grab the ball when there are people around him.

i thought last year he had the same problem, but im not really sure. Either way the guy cant hold on to it this year, which is why he has been useless for us this year.

Like Walt Frazier has often said, he makes himself a a foot shorter by bringing his hands down where it can be stripped.

He seems to have relatively small hands. The new ball was described by alot of players as slick, too, but the sheer volume of balls BOTH Curry and Frye can't hold onto is an issue.

I dont think he's got a hands problem, he just doesnt take care of the ball. I dont care how good your hands are. If you leave the ball out there in this league your going to get stripped.

I dont understand why it is so hard for him to stop bringing the ball down, or power dribbling when he is already directly under the rim.

I keep saying this- I think Curry is trying too hard.

Last year, he was ok- he was out of shape, but he was able to hit shots in the lane.

Now, the same shots he made last year are desperate heaves towards the basket.

He now has isiah as the coach and isiah is the guy that traded a pair of draft picks for curry and gave him a big contract.

I think curry's problem is he doesn't know how to play hard.

Curry does have good hands... he's just not playing w/alot of focus right now... much like Frye was struggling early on in the season.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
