Corrected...

Past 5 GAMES

Bynum (4-1 record)
Points 15.2
Rebounds 9.4
Minutes 31.4

Curry (0-5 record)
Points 14.2
Rebounds 4.8
Minutes 23.4

The question is not whether Bynum is better than Curry, but these stats show a guy who is a hard worker, and one who is not. Look at the points and minutes... then look at Rebounds.

Curry could dominate offensively if he were to get in shape, then make up for his rebounds by staying on the floor longer minutes.

==

Randolph (1-4 record without the SAC game where he was ejected after 17 minutes of play)
Points 16.6
Rebounds 8.8
Minutes 29.6

Imagine if Eddy had a HOF center instead of a SF as his tutor?

Exactly. The Knicks have been uncanny in messing up a wet dream. The way the Knicks coach all their 'great on paper' players, Bynum would probably be in the developmental league or over in Europe. The Knicks have been horrific in developing and defining the roles of their young players.

Hard to define roles for players, or develop players in general, without patience and a plan. **** Dolan and Isiah in the balloon knot.

lol, I never understand why people continue to salivate over Bynum and how Isiah passed over him, yet I never hear a word from anybody over an Amare/Camby frontline that we could have had the last 6 years. It's pretty pathetic people hear get overexcited over an inconsistent center who's toughness has been questioned by his own coach, yet there's no mention over a frontline that could have won us a championship by now. Sad...

Benigno, on WFAN and many callers/fans did complain when it took place/the following year. A lot of times. Not sure about this site, though. I agree with you.
