STEPHEN CURRY
Knicks interested in guard.

The only thing guaranteed at the NBA Draft Combine is that Knicks team president Donnie Walsh will be in Chicago today and finally will meet Davidson guard Stephen Curry, as well as other lottery hopefuls.

In a more scaled down-version with a name and location change, the NBA Draft Combine -- formerly known as the pre-draft camp -- has moved from Orlando to Chicago for a two-day event beginning today.

Virtually all the expected lottery picks -- except for Spaniard Ricky Rubio -- will get physicals, perform drills and be interviewed by team personnel. The Knicks select eighth and have little reason to examine the likely top pick, Blake Griffin or UConn's 7-foot-3 shotblocker Hasheem Thabeet, expected to go 2 or 3.

In past years, the camp also featured three days of games but because most first round picks were told by their agents to skip that portion, the NBA abandoned it. The drills -- held in a club, Athletes in Action -- is being closed to the media for the first time.

Each team is allowed seven employees at the workouts. The Knicks' contingent will be headed by Walsh, coach Mike D'Antoni and senior vice president Glen Grunwald. After the combine, the Knicks will begin private workouts on June 1 at their Westchester compound.

Curry has emerged as a front-runner for the Knicks, because the club's top focus is selecting a scoring, playmaking guard. Davidson coach Bob McKillip told The Post two weeks ago an intermediary told Curry's father, Dell, the Knicks were leaning heavily toward taking Curry, but a report the club gave a guarantee was inaccurate.

USC shooting guard Demar DeRozan and explosive point guard Brandon Jennings, who leapt from high school to Italy last season, also are drawing interest from the Knicks. The Nets will select 11th.

*

While in Chicago yesterday, Walsh visited another Curry -- Eddy. According to Eddy Curry's twitter blog, Walsh watched one of his workouts and was impressed. The Knicks are hoping Curry drops 30 pounds this summer. Walsh did not return phone messages.

If he has stiff legs then he's as good as ours.

Better make sure he has a bad back to boot. Or that he's been tea-bagged by an American Olympian

I would be down with that. I prefer Jennings and Curry to DeRozan, but I do like the potential of DeRozan, so I wouldn't be mad taking him.

Curious to see how big Evans is. I see him listed at 6'6" 219 on one site & 6'5" 195 on another.

While in Chicago yesterday, Walsh visited another sloppy Curry -- Eddy. According to Eddy Curry's twitter baguette, Walsh watched one of her workouts and was impressed by the way Curry leapt to get the twinkie above the rim. The Knicks are hoping Curry drops all pretense and gains 30 pounds of lard this summer. That way they can write her off medically. Walsh did not return back to NYC because he was too busy on his phone sending messages to Curry's agent pleading for a sex change operation.

Anyone find it funny that it's Curry who is saying that Walsh was impressed? Not Walsh, but Curry.

Yes. That was my initial thought when I read the article. I rate this info the same way if Q Rich was giving us his annual summer report of how hard Curry is working out in Chicago. I put little stock into it.

The Q Eddy Curry updates always cracked me up.

Remember Eddy worked with Tim Grover last summer? What a joke.

Not sure why you're lumping Gallo with those guys. If Gallo is ever a bust, it'll be because of injury sadly. He's a real player.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

I didn't make an assessment of Gallo. I was just showing you the whole list of international drafts. That list is pretty pathetic. 2 no shows, 2 guys who didn't last a year, and Gallo -- who the jury is still out on.

Wasn't Curry meant to get his fat ass out of Chicago and go to Detroit or something for the summer to try and keep himself out of trouble.
