Talk about haters. You worship a guy that is arguably the most overpaid athelete in the known sports universe, but yet you dog guys that actually show up and play. Is Eddy overweight?? YES. Have you seen pictures of his family? He will be fighting his weight for the rest of his life. Does he still need to develop. Sure. But he is far from worthless. Remember he NEVER went to college. Back in the day he would have had four years somewhere to develop and learn to train. Instead he jumped to support his family. He should only be a 3-4 year pro at best. How long did it take Jermain O'neal to develop??? Eddy has agility and soft hands that can't be taught. Hopefully when our point guard situation is sorted out, he will be productive again. I am rooting for E-city and every other Knick fan should be to because he is our center.
JimKcchief88, you are one blind person.
You completely ignore Curry's 4.7 rebounds, .5 blocks , .2 steals, .5 assists, and 2.14 turnovers season, because all you look at is the point per game column by people's stats.
Learn to also take assists, steals, rebounds, blocks, free throw percentage, and turnovers into consideration, too.
These are a list of NBA power forwards and centers that came to the NBA straight out of high school, and this is how long it took each of them to develop their games.
1) Eddy Curry: still developing-has been in the NBA for 7 years, and he averaged 13 points, 4.7 rebounds, and .5 blocks last season.
2) Jermaine O' Neal:
5 years to develop-averaged 12.9 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 2.8 blocks that
season
3) Dwight Howard: Took 2 years to develop-averaged 15.8 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks that season
4) Al Jefferson: Took 3 years to develop-averaged 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks that season
5) Amare Stoudamire: Took 2 years to develop-averaged 20 points, 9 rebounds, 1.6 blocks that season
6) Tyson Chandler: Took 4 years to develop-averaged 8 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks that season
7) Kevin Garnett: Took 3 years to develop-averaged 18.5 points, 9.6 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks that season
8) Andrew Bynum: Took 3 years to develop-averaged 13 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 blocks that season
Stop making excuses for Curry. The more you make excuses for him, the more you look like a Currysexual.
Curry has 30 million dollars left on his contract. He's more overpaid than Marbury, so just be quiet. I'd rather have an expiring contract from an All Star than 3 years from a player that is yet to live up to expectations
despite being in the NBA for SEVEN YEARS.
