Will Curry See ANY Playing Time?

[.GR]

Eddy Curry's days as the Knicks' starting center are over, and judging by the harsh language Mike D'Antoni used Tuesday night, Curry won't be seeing the floor anytime soon. D'Antoni expressed disappointment in Curry's play and his conditioning just one week before the Knicks open the season against the Miami Heat. Curry, who was once described as a cornerstone piece of the franchise, is now just an expensive 7-foot ornament. "He's going to have to play better than what he has shown me," D'Antoni said after Curry did not play in Boston's 101-90 victory at the Garden. "He is going to have to pick it up. He has got to pick up his training." D'Antoni is using a short rotation, and even with Jared Jeffries sidelined for at least another month with a broken leg, Curry can't crack the rotation. D'Antoni is even using Malik Rose ahead of Curry.

This is going to do one of two things:

1. Motivate Eddy to get in shape, and help his career
2. Cause more drama, and make him shut it down until he's moved.

Most likley #2, since he has already said he feels like he should be the starter and he wasnt brought to NY to come off the bench.

Ironic ZBo was the one involved in all the trade talks and he's come in and played hard, while Curry has dissapointed once again...

he just know noticed curry's disappointing play? where has been his whole career.. just an expensive 7 foot ornament fits real well for curry...

he needs to cut that weight, throw some muscle on, improve his vertical and get some low post moves and he can be a starter again
