    LOL. :D

    Eddy named himself after his favorite dish. I'm sure. He loves it so much he eats 15 kgs of it everyday and names himself after it.

    Now...Glen Rice...can we get some rice?

    i seriously doubt it. no one wants him, but then again, if randolph is being traded from team to team, i suppose curry could be as well.

    There's only 2yrs/$22MM left on his contract. If Curry plays half decent, someone will take him. His contract isn't so bad now. If he shows nothing at all, the Knicks will be stuck with him. Curry is the last remaining residue of Zeke.

    His contract will be more attractive next year. This year would probably be a gamble for teams trading for him. However, it will still be a low risk gamble. Two years of bliss or agony.

    Randolph might be a d-bag, but the guy has talent and puts up pretty decent numbers. Curry is lazy and has little talent. Big difference between the two.

    Does anyone know his insurance situation? Curry had a heart problem right before he signed this contract, is he covered in case of regular injury? Oh and I wouldn't be surprised if there is a bonus clause in his contract that relates to the weight loss. He is being a good sport about putting on a show for the media though.

    based on the link you provided, it seems the statistic isn't that helpful for judging talent. ranked from best to worst no way correlates to the players we intrinsically know are best...and worst.

    that said, curry clearly has some holes in his game.

    Curry has massive amounts of talent, but little desire. He flat out refuses to be a great rebounder. He is a bigger Mo Taylor. He only cares to score points.

    A good comparison. He is bigger then Mo but has the same mentality. Two year contract could be a gamble. Getting him next year would be best but for this season it would be a risk.

    You mean Eddy "The Black (donut) Hole" Curry? Once he gets the ball down low he will attempt to do 1 of 4 things score, score, shoot and score. 1 thing he will NOT do is pass the ball..

    :D :D :D , That is the reason he is not a hot commodity right now. The problem is that the Rockets are desperate for a center. They could do better then Curry but if He is the target then hope they realize that there is still two years of greatness or despair. Still a big risk.

    No, it isn't, it's a fantasy basketball tool for distinguishing people who put up worse/better fantasy numbers than they look because they turn it over too much while not contributing in assists/blocks/steals or they don't turn it over while contributing heavily in assists/blocks/steals.
