I really feel like D'Antoni was partly responsible for Curry going before our pick. They loved the guy and let the world know and then to top it off didn't try to lock him up, like we did a few years before with Charmin. When you like a lotto pick, keep it quiet and try to promise the guy, you know Evans isn't going to slide...

This was not the only good game he had- you are right about the end of the year numbers, to an extent, but Curry has had an excellent rookie year- and this game was just icing on the cake for him.

C'mon man, they guy is a coach. GSW don't take players cuz the knicks might with the next pick.

And on A nellie team a guard that can shoot can put up numbers.

IM suprised his game translated as well as it did with his small frame this year. The talent is there but the kid adapted it to the mans game. Good for him!

Curry wanted to be here also. Don't they all.

Curry has all the potential to be the best PG and a top 10 NBA player himself. I still would like to know if we could've had that deal with Washington's5 for chandler or why we didn't try to swap with Minnesota. I think the Knicks just liked and wanted Hill.

I always wanted this kid.. I find it funny how people kept telling me he won't be able to get his shot off in the NBA..

anyway, I do think playing in nellies helter skelter, street ball deluxe system does allow him to pad his numbers, but nevertheless, the kid can play..

Curse Don Nelson for stealing him! :( If Golden State is smart, they fire that bum Nelson, hire Jeff Van Gundy or Avery Johnson and trade Monta Ellis.

Do you remember Mike Bibby in Sacramento? Not the old washed up Atlanta Bibby.

Yup, that was what I thought Stephen Curry would develop to in his prime but I now think he'll be better.

I agree with you. I wouldn't put it past the kid to improve on his defense though. Curry was never going to be a Knick on draft day anyways. To many thing go wrong for the Knicks. It all starts with not tanking properly they passed up on a number of elite player in the past because of their inability to toss a season on the way side should have taken a lesson from what the Nets did this year but the Knicks never learned that tanking has its benefits. The year the Knicks have a draft pick they win 32 games the year they don't they win 29 games they disgust me that would have been enough to get one slot better for position in the lottery last year.

I like Douglass he plays defense and is only going to get better. He seems like such an ideal fit to be playing with LeBron or Wade. He can hit the open shot can create his own shot and is a beast on the defense. He has had some pretty good games too.

I wouldnt hold GS's record against Curry, given that he's playing with D Leaguers, but I really like the Lee comparison.

Curry is playing wildly undisciplined, stat-friendly, And-1 basketball. He's not trash, he's a top rookie, but his game is hyper-inflated.
