I think it finally occured to me last night, WHY I detest Eddy Curry so much.
I mean we all "know" why - he's fat, he doesn't play defense, and that trade...GOD that trade.
But now I can eloquently put it into words

:
1.) Style of play should ALMOST always dictate the players, not the other way around.
exceptions? Guys like Big Z, Old Shaq, and Yao. And now - Eddy Curry.
2.) Our team sucks b/c we turn the ball over on offense, and play crap defense.
OK, so in summation - We can't go uptempo b/c Eddy is fat, slow, and has poor stamina; and we can't honestly keep him around for half court b/c he doesn't play a lick of defense.
He's like...
Some sort of mutant. Too fat to play uptempo, too lazy to play slow, but with all the potential in the world...
And that's without even mentioning the cancer that is Zach Randolph and Stephon Marbury.
OR the terrible rotations by Isiah.
OR the terrible signings.
bla bla bla.

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure.
And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.
