What would we have to give up to get Curry? He's not even scheduled to play and has seemed to fall out of favor...has he ever played PF...and what kind of trade would be possible to get him? Anyone interested?

No way unless they included Lee , I would consider May , Hollins , Carroll. Not sure i do it then.

We've already got a fat, out of shape big man, I dont think we need 2. I wouldn't want anything to do with Eddy Curry. I know in the short term he would help us offensively, but what about defense and rebounding, and most important: attitude and chemistry. I would take Lee off the knicks, but I want nothing to do with Curry. I just don't think LB wants to bring back any of his NY bad apples.

(I'm going to get blasted for this one..)

Do you understand that at this point, ANYTHING he provides is a plus in comparison to May? May=no offense, no rebounding, no defense.

Curry can provide more than that. I don't want Curry, but I'd rather have him than have a journeyman or Lex, whom neither are ready to be a starter on an NBA team.

I would much rather have Randolph than Curry, but still... its an improvement, if only minimal.
playoffs...PLAYOFFS?

agreed. LB would not want curry in our team. he already had problems with curry's inability to play good defense and get rebounds while coaching in NY. not to mention the possible health problems that he would bring.

i really think that dwayne jones will be the next guy in our roster

who cares about what curry could bring vs keeping may

the bottom line is LB is not a fan of curry. he is not what we are looking for in our team (more rebounds.defense)

Y'all are hilarious...it's like a drowning man grabbing whatever the hell gets near to keep from going under!

I don't want that flat slob anywhere near our team.

The thread on LB's comments about May on the NYK board...with pictures!

I care. If he's our only option then you're damn right I'd take him over nothing (May).

ANYTHING is better than nothing, I hope to God he isn't the only option for us now.. but if he is then by all means try 'em out!
