He is a prime example of what happens when you are overweight and have poor conditioning.

He won't even inbound the ball when he's the one who got torched and is under the basket.

Big baby is a better player than Curry. Even Sweetney is a better player than Curry.

Curry is what he is.....I can't even think of any big man that had so much ability.....but sucks so bad....can anyone?

I could clearly see Eddy being an all-star easy if he was truly dedicated....but he's far from it....

I thought Eddy could be our big man....but this season things became very clear to me. He gives just as much points to the opposition as he scores himself. His play on the pick n roll is horrible....we already have guards that aren't good on defense and he makes things even worst.

The only thing he can do is score....he's great at that....but terrible at 'every other facet' of the game.

Our players are unreceptive and lacking work ethic. Players like this aren't coachable. It's why no one wants them but us.

I'm overweight and don' play ball as much as I used to. But I guarantee I would get more rebounds than Curry, heck I'll play better defence, he's a whole foot bigger than me.

Eddy = bench player reserve. Shame he is ours and we trade early 1st rounders for later one's in the drafts, though we got 2 SF's back who Are both good, buit have not been playing.


We Need a Starting defensive center, maybe draft Thabeet.

We need a pass first PG, if Rose is not available maybe Thabeet will be a good choice, and we find a pass first pg somehow.

I have to agree with you. LB saw right away what was wrong with this team and was sending messages to everyone with reduced playing time and starting status. Our starting line ups were constantly changing because players were not producing on both ends of the floor.

I read some posts where posters feel LB was purposely ruining the team because of his dislike for Zeke :o. Sorry I don't buy that for obvious reasons, the biggest reason is that Zeke was instrumental in giving him huge money.

LB saw the lack of effort and the lack of IQ from the very first day and tried to find a combination that worked. Zeke didn't like the fact that LB was sitting his big ticket trades and got upset with LB's style. I'm almost certain this is what caused the bad blood between the two. I thought what LB was doing was correct even though it was hurting the team in the short run. This notion that LB wanted Zeke's job was media hype that had legs because the knicks were in turmoil. LB making Zeke look bad was a great headline. Dolan and his p.r. department don't fool me.

Zeke kept sticking up for his players because his GM reputation was on the line. LB was coaching based on effort and IQ. This is clear to me today after watching this team for 3 years. Zeke not accepting his mistakes and to this day still justifying them has obliterated this teams stature in the NBA. I'm sure Zeke still feels good holding his players hands and listening to their cries, but unfortunately it's not getting us anywhere. What a shame.

The one thing about the LB era I didn't understand is why Lee never got much burn. He was the only guy, even though a rookie, that played with effort. This was the exact thing LB was looking for in his players and he ignored it in the likes of Lee. I didn't get that one.
