he's a good player, he's not 6-0, probably 5-9. I'm willing to be patient to see what falls there. In this draft, there will be a real good player in the 28-29 range. I'm wondering if we should try to pry Eddie Curry from the Bulls if they don't want to pay him straight up for our first pick. They don't have a pick and if they want to keep salary down, they can trade him for our draft pick, and we can sign him afterwards. Unless we get pick 1, were not getting a better C than Eddie Curry at any pick. I still take into account Eddie is 22.

A lot of teams like Diaz. In fact I read that Atlanta gave up demands on a player and a pick for Walker because they want Diaz and need that second pick. that was the worst Ive sen him play this year last night, but thats not uncommon for a 19 YO G coming to Duke where every bit of contact goes the other way on you.

If we can get Curry with the 8-9 the pick, I would do it. Not going to give up Sweetney though now, just the pick.

But Dee is a candidate for that late pick, if he comes out.

I am not that high on Eddie Curry as you are, Briggs and Eddie Curry is a bad 22, not good 22. Weight issues, lazy issues, passive issues, and this is a contract year for him! I rather we draft our own mistake rather than taking the Bulls. Because you will have to give him a deal better than what Crawford and at this point in time, Crawford is the better player and more of an upside too.

pick # 8 for Eddie Curry is not a bad trade man. a bad 22 is when you see a kid who weighs 130 pounds with a crack pipe in his back pocket. eddie curry is in great shape, i still do not think he is utilized right.

Kwame Brown is back as well. 10rebs in 32mins 12 rebs in 32mins in his first 2 games. No blks and low pts though.

Curry's got a gifted body, he's in a contract year, and he has the desire/motivation/intensity to pull down only 6 rebounds a game? Something's seriously wrong. I'll pass on him. When he got down to 280, I thought he was trying to pull a Dampier in his contract year, but it looks like he forgot that you actually still have to play hard for a full year to accomplish that.

Yeah, but you cannot go wrong by trading Curry for pick 8-9-10??/ if they were willing to pay him. If Isiah traded Penny Hardaway and pick 9 to Dallas for Mike Finley Ok you have got a f problem, but trading for a 22 YO C who has put up a number of high % 20+ pt games isnt a bad deal!

Curry's stats are average at best. 15 ppg, 5.6 rpg, .88 bpg, .6 apg. What is alarming is his 2.69 turnovers per game. This after 3 seasons. I am guessing that one of these big men coming out can do better than that after 3 seasons. I rather keep my pick and take a chance.
