Why isn't Eddie Curry getting any playing time or mention 

Post#1 » by black riley » Sun Jul 15, 2012 11:04 pm

Eddie Curry is obviously a proven scorer in the nba..i admit he may be a little out of shape but i think the biggest part of his game that needs to be worked on is not his conditioning but more important is his confidence..so you mean to tell me Dexter Pittman is in better playing shape than Eddie Curry or Pittman even has a better offensive skillset or higher basketball IQ...Curry is a natural low post scorer and threat. Miami your big man and low post threat is on your bench..

Well the season is over so that's the reason but I do agree that Mr. Buffet is better than Pittman

Still working on his fitness. I think Zo said it would take a whole year to get him back into full playing shape.

When we signed Curry, I told fans (not on this forum) to not get your hopes up; he's not the Curry he used to be over 5 seasons ago.

The same reason we signed Curry is the same reason we signed Bibby and Rafer Alston: guys to motivate the young players on our team that Riley/Spo really want to play.

Just my opinion, but I truly believe signing Curry was a message to Joel and Pitt to step their games up.

For him to be effective, he has to be fed in the post which won't happen & he's not a perimiter defender or shooter so he doesn't fit.

Well Pittman beat him out so.....

Curry was all types of useless.

And it's not like you can argue we value youth over veterans...this is the team that played Penny Hardaway over Dorell Wright

Eddy sucks. Couldn't get into the rotation with our terrible collection of centers. He might get the vet min from someone, but he might be better off going to the NBDL and trying to work his way back. PEACE.

Curry is more done than an egg at a texas street cement while the sun is out and is 900 degrees out there.

He can't guard pick and roll.
