Has anyone heard from him?

He could take it two ways, start to sulk thinking he isn't the franchise or go to guy anymore like he did in chi -town and became passive because he lost his shine.

Or welcome the added depth in the post knowing Z-BO can do it all inside outside.

Hopefully the trade for Z-BO will motivate Curry to be a consistent two way player.

Randolph has repeatedly said they are friends off the court so I bet he is excited to play together.

Curry said in slam this month that he never thought of himself as a go to franchise guy before this year.

Why are people looking to cause trouble for no reason?

Yeah Steph said that this year. Truth is its everyones team. Its not 1 persons team. Its a team not an individual sport.
"I love Eddy. I know him personally," Randolph said. "I think Eddy's going to bring my game out of me, and I'm going to bring the game out of him. A guy like him, he's unstoppable. ... Eddy's a monster. He's a beast.

"They got to double-team me, and they got to double-team Eddy. So with a high-low, we're going to work out real good."

Eddy doesn't come across to me as a big ego guy.

He seems to get along with everyone so I agree.

Curry and Zach knowing each other already should smooth things out from the start. Zach plays so much from the midpost area and facing up that I really think their gonna be able to co-exist. They'll both get plenty of touches in comparison to everyone else on the team. The thing that's really gonna help is that when Curry goes out of the game Zach will be the primary focus and then it will be Curry's turn while Zach get's a rest. They'll play a lot together and also solo. Eddy is such a lo key guy I would think he'd be fine with Zach coming in. Zach has said that he wants to be a team leader as has Curry, so probably they'll get together and share that role. It should be that way with the 2 biggest and best players on the team.

I'm really hoping Q is fully healthy cuz he's a very good leader as well, i'm sure he'd help to make sure the team is focused and that Zach and Curry are getting the ball the way they should. Remember how Q would get on the guards if they didn't feed the post the way they should? I can see Lee being another guy that will help to lead the team. He seems to be maturing into that kind of guy.

I think Eddy is more relaxed now(if it's possible)
I don't think he was ever trilled to be the focal point of anything.
Not everybody like this

Well he's said that he liked it and wanted more. Unless he's just lying, I would tend to think that he really took to the role like a fish to water. He was calling for the ball and getting mad if they failed to get it to him. I saw a guy that grew more and more comfortable being the man on this team.

Now Eddy doesn't have to save his energy when playing help Defense.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

I am not saying he is not a man.
But he never looked as comfortable as KG, Shaq, Dankin, Amare, Bosh, Rasheed, JO, Pau, Dirk, Elton Brant, Dwight Howard, Okafor, Boozer, Yao, and even Z-bo, Bogut, Webber, and Okur for this matter as a focal point.
Hmm... There are so many very good big man in the NBA to stuck with this kid by the way.

I still want to hear it from Eddy's lips not Zach Randolph.

This is NY people have all kind of hangups when it comes to TEAMMATES in NY.

When Curry isn't the focal point of an offense he tends to become more passive and disappear.

Curry and Crawford have a good playing relationship and I can see ZEKE disrupting their relationship in an effort to get Randolph the ball more. It will be very interesting.
