He was a completely different player last season. But he is what he is, and needs to be surrounded by active, energy type players. Having Lee and Artest flanking him, with Jeffries coming off the bench, is a very good situation for Eddy. And if you could somehow bring in a Noah or Sean Williams, that would be ideal. Randolph is, was, and will forever be, the wrong type of player to put alongside Eddy - for all the reasons that everyone now understands.


I understand what you're saying, but I want guys on my team that can defend when their mommy is not next to them. Don't get me wrong, having complimentary players on a team is a must for chemistry and player weaknesses, I realize this. The problem is Curry can't be left alone ever. He's like a baby... he'll walk away. I'm sorry, I've had it with Curry and all the excuses.

Also, regarding last season, Curry's defense was worse than it is now. No doubt his offensive game was better last year, but I want defense god dammit !

ok, we will not even consider a trade for curry that involves our first or sean williams. idc what your team traded for him, thats because your gm is an idiot. besides curry doesn't fit our needs.

curry wasn't worth what IT gave up for him, most people knew that. but he could be a valuable player if used correctly. maybe pairing him up with a defensive pf and sf, or use him as a low post scorer off the bench

he and chandler would probably be a nice combo right now

Curry would put up career numbers playing with Kidd/RJ/VC

RJ/VC will command doubles and leave Curry open or Curry will demand double and leave RJ/VC open, not to mention Kidd will spoon feed Curry.

Yea, which is why NJ has to give us a pick or two.

That's why I said.

Collins(1 year left) + Mags(expiring) + 1st rounder this year

I think Collins can be the anchor for your defense. He doesn't demand the ball so don't have to worry about him taking shots away from other players. He can also handle the opposing bigs defensively.
He's not a complainer either.

Did I mention he went 100% from the field against orlando.

I think his is one deal where Isaiah can't look bad in.
He got rid of 3 years of Curry for 1 year of Collins, Expiring in Mags + a 1st rounder.

Looks like a solid rebuilding choice.

Now that's somewhat reailistic, but why would Memphis trade those contracts for curry/craw?


They need a SG and Crawford playing off the ball next to Conley/Lawry is not a bad go, except on the defensive end where the average NBA SG gets at Craw every night.

Darko is their Center next to Gasol, but Darko's not doing anything special on either end. At least on offense, they can throw the ball into Curry to get the defense to sag and give Gasol more room to operate.

Those contracts have to be moved, especially Stoudamire's. Holding on to them an extra year does nothing for them.

Nah, will pass on that one. Thabo has no offensive game and Noc's only value to us is off the bench backing up the SF/PF for a three pointer here or there. We have Wilson Chandler to develop for the number of years that Noc's contract runs.

But, I would give you Jeffries for Noc - straight up.

I would do that. Make the pick have top 8 protection.

Curry has value.

If I was NJ, I would do that trade.

Think about it.

You have Sean Williams at the 4. Curry's an upgrade over Collins and Magloire.

With Kidd, Carter in their 30s, I would definitely want to win now so screw the pick. It'll probably be in the teens anyways.

Think of the lineup man.

Kidd
Carter
Jefferson
S. Willams
Curry

That's a crazy team.


That's why as a Knick fan and a Net hater, I would demand more from the trade. How about two first round picks, New Jersey?

Curry demands to touch the ball 80% of the times to be an effective player. Believe me; GMs around the league know that as well. No franchise other than the knicks will ever run an offense through a non-passing/ one dimensional big man like Curry.

But they're not running the offense through Curry. They have Jason Kidd. We don't have a Jason Kidd or a Vince Carter. They have. They don't really have to rely on Eddy to score all the time. They just need him to draw double teams down low. Worst comes to worst, they bench him when they need to and they get the same Nets team as before. He's just an added piece to their rotation, something Eddy Curry wouldn't mind being.

Curry wont work in NJ. They play a version of the Princeton Offence. Motion, passing, backdoor cuts, teamwork. Curry is a negative at all 4. Plus he cant run with Kidd.

Knicksnotslick you're the most moronic poster on this damn board. Your trade scenario is just outright asinine...

Collins does everything better than Curry except score in the post. A 2nd round pick with Collins for Curry is enough.
