Simply the best game in terms of effort in the second half that I have ever seen him play!!!!!!

More offensive rebounds in the fourth quarter than he had all of last year
I just hope that people will like me

It shows he can do it. We need to see more of this from him.

He was a two-way player for about 2qrts. Make him watch films of the second of this game over and over and over and over and over until it sinks in.

He has to keep this up.

Yo Eddy Curry was passing the ball well tonight. If you catch the rewind, notice how fast the ball comes out of his hands on a couple of doubles. That was unreal- he looked like Shaq for a second there.

His energy level came up big time. I think when the other guys are pumped he thrives on that.

Balkman should start with Eddy and Zach

I've been saying all along that Eddy isn't a "bad" rebounder or a "bad" shotblocker, as some here have insisted, because he has shown the ability to be a good at both. The problem has been consistency and effort. Tonight was an example of what he is capable of. If we see it on a consistent basis our team can only stand to benefit.

I demand Curry play like this the rest of the season...But in all honesty, I think the fact that Zack is there take pressure and attention off him...So he is free to roam a little more in the paint on both ends of the court...Let's hope this continues...

HUGE props to Eddy. Could he be feeling the pressure of matching Zach's intensity? If so, that's a good thing and not what I anticipated.

BTW, anyone notice how Eddy Curry and Zach Randolph's inside D deficiencies were masked by Renaldo Balkman. Watch the first Q vs. the fourth Q and you'll see what I'm talking about.

9 pts 5 rebs 1 blk in the 4th. IMO that might have been his best quarter as a Knick.

And I he definitely brings out the hustle in the entire team. Balkman is the glue.

Eddy needs to take the rebounding clinic by instructors David Lee and Randolph.

Lee will teach him how to "go get" the ball, and Randolph will teach him how through boxing out and positioning even a non-athletic guy can inhale double-digit rebounds flat-footed.

If Curry learns from them he is an excellent player.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

Uh, technically doesn't that make him a bad rebounder and shotblocker?

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.

Last year the guy averaged one blocked shot every 70 minutes. That's as bad as it gets for a center. He gets 1 rebound every 5 minutes. That's not awful but it's below average.

So desperate to take a shot at Curry, you have to go back to last year. How about you comment on the game tonight.

Balkman is the straw that stirs the drink

Zach is a straight-up, warrior

Lee brings the intensity and the dunkage

Eddy just wanted to get in on the fun
