New York Knicks: 20 Former Knicks Whom the Team Should’ve Forced to Retire Basketball, Eddy Curry, Isiah Thomas, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York Knicks, Rankings/List, Stephon Marbury | Comments Off
Cuttino Mobley—remember him? Didn't think so. Well, he was once a Knick for a New York minute in 2009. Now he's suing the team for "[ending] his career by having him declared medically ineligible to play because of a preexisting heart condition." He claims New York forced him into retirement to save $19 million.What a clever cap-room strategy by the front office on that one if true. It took Mobley's two-year contract off the books and paid dividends in luxury-tax relief. It helped bring Amar'e Stoudemire to the Garden.The L.A. Clippers traded Mobley to the Knicks with Tim Thomas for Mardy ...

Eddy Curry Sued for $73,000 in Car Repair Bills Eddy Curry | Comments Off
by FanHouse StaffFiled under: Bulls, KnicksEddy Curry is facing more more money and legal woes, as a lawsuit filed Tuesday in Chicago claims the Knick owes $73,000 in auto repair bills. According to the lawsuit, the former Bull racked up charges on a number of vehicles in 2007 and 2008, and several of the checks he wrote the repair shop bounced due to non-sufficient funds. Curry has already faced two arrest warrants this year for failure to pay the remainder of a $660,000 settlement after Curry was sued for allegedly having sex with an underage Chicago girl. To go with that, a ...

2010-11 New York Knicks NBA Predictions and Odds Amare Stoudemire, Anthony Randolph, Basketball, Eddy Curry, Kelenna Azubuike, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York Knicks, Preview/Prediction, Ronny Turiaf | Comments Off
The New York Knicks recorded their ninth consecutive losing season in 2009-10. As a result, General Manager Donnie Walsh cleaned house and the Knicks started the offseason with just four players under contract and tons of cap room, which they used to sign Amar'e Stoudemire. Coach Mike D’Antoni has the dubious distinction of racking up 103 losses in two years in New York. Apparently, his strategy of trying to score more than his opponents while not playing defense hasn’t worked. The addition of Stoudemire does not exactly address the defensive issue either, since he is not known for rebounding or for ...

New York Knicks Win Season Opener (Believe It or Not) Amare Stoudemire, Danilo Gallinari, Eddy Curry, Game Recap, Mike D'antoni, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York Knicks, Wilson Chandler | Comments Off
By Cooper L. Train One win at the start of an 82-game schedule. Just one win, over a lottery-bound team. But anyone who has followed the Knicks even a little bit the past decade can understand our excitement. For the first time since Nov. 22, 2008, your New York Knicks are over .500. And when the tale of the 2010-2011 NBA season comes to a close, the record will forever show that Amar’e Stoudemire‘s NEW New York Knicks started off better than LeBron James’ Heat. Technically. If you happened to miss this one (apparently there was a baseball game on) and just looked at ...

New York Knicks Back In The Mix For Carmelo Anthony Amare Stoudemire, Anthony Randolph, Breaking News, Carmelo Anthony, Danilo Gallinari, Denver Nuggets, Eddy Curry, NBA, New York Knicks | Comments Off
ESPN’s Chris Sheridan is reporting that the New York Knicks have made “significant progress” throughout the last few days in their attempt to acquire star small forward Carmelo Anthony. “The offers the Knicks have proposed have always centered around packages including Anthony Randolph, the expiring contract of Eddy Curry and a first-round draft pick they would acquire from a third team, and New York has softened its stance on including forward Danilo Gallinari in a trade,” Sheridan reported. The Knicks are still looking for a third team to step into the transaction, and nothing seems prone to happen before the tip off of the NBA season. When asked if he expects ...

New York Knicks: What Must Go Right Eddy Curry, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York Knicks, Opinion | Comments Off
I’d be demised if I didn’t mention the monkey in the room. Actually the 325lb monkey in the room. Of course I’m talking about Eddy Curry. After no showing all off season activities Mr. Curry decided to arrive at training camp weighing an amazing 325lbs. I understand he’s a massive human being but how can a professional athlete entering his contract season arrive at training weighing 25-50 lbs above his optimal playing weight. Don’t worry though Knick fans, Curry broke his previous record and made it through 3 practices before coming up lame with a hamstring ...

Time creeps up on the best of us. I used to be able to eat a whole burrito, and it wouldn't induce a weekend-long coma. Age just has a way of catching up to you. So it is the same with the fittest of athletes. Careers are fleeting. One day you are hitting a buzzer-beater, and the next you are waiver wire fodder with no teams interested in your services. It is the sad reality of the NBA. While you may fall in love with your favorite players, their time to hang it ...

The Hard Fall Of a Promising Big Man: Life and Times Of Eddy Curry Eddy Curry, Isiah Thomas, Mike D'antoni, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York Knicks, Opinion | Comments Off
Eddy Curry has always been a large player on the court, that is when he actually was able to stay on it. Curry, a once heralded Chicago Prep star (Preps Chicago Hoops aired in 2000 on Fox Sports South, chronicling Curry's High School days) was drafted out of Thornwood High School in Chicago, back in the 2001 NBA Draft by the Chicago Bulls (fourth overall). He was a raw rookie, who displayed a limited work ethic but one who many saw as a cornerstone of the franchise along with fellow high school standout Tyson Chandler. Curry did not play much during his rookie season, ...

NBA Trade Rumors: What Do the Knicks Have to Do to Land Carmelo Anthony? Anthony Randolph, Basketball, Carmelo Anthony, Danilo Gallinari, Eddy Curry, NBA, NBA Atlantic, New York Knicks, Opinion, Wilson Chandler | Comments Off
The Summer of LeBron has turned into the Fall of Carmelo. While Anthony has yet to publicly announce his dissatisfaction with the Denver Nuggets, the writing seems to be on the wall. It seems that new rumors come up on a daily basis. Just this past Friday, a proposed four team deal involving the Nuggets, Nets, Jazz, and Bobcats had gained steam. However, it's far from a sure thing. Any deal involving 'Melo would most assuredly require a signed extension; otherwise it is simply not worth the risk. Looking at the makeup of the Nets, their chances look slim if they include Devin ...

The Knicks are in position as is, to battle for one of the last three Eastern Conference playoff spots going into the 2011-12 season. There is a gaping hole for a backup big who can score, grab some rebounds and black a shot or two. Can Eddy Curry, like a slightly inflated Clark Kent, turn into a rotund Superman for eight to 10 minutes a night and send Metropolis (er, New York) into the playoffs?
