<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">He has only played one game this season but already Eddy Curry feels that this year will be no different to the three others he has already spent in Chicago. The words 'win? and 'Bulls' have seldomly been used together since Michael Jordan hung up his sneakers at the end of 1998, and according to those around Curry for him to become a winner he needs to move on. According to the Chicago Sun-Times Eddy Curry wants out of the Windy City. </div> Full Story: http://www.suntimes.com/output/sports/cst-spt-eddy11.html
i heard this on the news and i was like what the hell. what a baby, he hasn't even proven anything yet, 6rpg last year? that's pathetic for a starting center known as baby shaq, shaq's second season he had a little bit more rebounds. you have to earn your money, the bulls aren't just going to sign someone to a max contract for the potential (learned lesson with e-rob?). nevertheless i hope curry's attitude changes, the bulls wasted a high pick on this guy with high expectations. he has to make the bulls a winning team it's just not going to come like that. if curry still doesn't like the windy city, trade him, don't let him walk away for nothing. a good trade, maybe the memphis rumor will resurrect? the bulls should throw curry and maybe a few other players to try to pry gasol (and possibly swift). it was an old rumor, but the bulls should try to get it done.
do you think the deal will get done? the bulls are probably scared that if they deal him he will become a monster. I don't think he can last in chicago, the media slams him, the fans don't like him much.
i have been reading several players from both sides with several players with the grizzlies. iv heard in the past, e-rob, curry, jefferies for williams, swift, etc,etc...curry for wells and swift now its curry for outlaw and wright!? i would rather take curry's inconsistency over outlaw(whos now on the suns, who i dont know how thatll work out) and wright who isnt much of a scorer, hell, he played for the clippers. wright is horrible, this would be a huge deal for the grizz, whereas the bulls would be getting ripped off. i would take swift and wells (what about nocioni and deng?) or swift and another big guy if they have one, i dont want anyone from memphis honestly, but i guess jerry west wants curry pretty bad...
Season FG% Rpg. Ppg. 2003-04 .496 6.2 14.7 2002-03 .585 4.4 10.5 2001-02 .501 3.8 6.7 so hes obviously getting better pretty quick and almost 15 ppg last season, i want to keep him, i always did, its chandler thats messing him up, davis needs to start and chandler on the bench. http://www.suntimes.com/output/bulls/cst-spt-eddy11.html

But, that's beyond the point. I do agree though, Curry needs to stay. He's getting better, but the one thing I didn't like was the huge dip in FG% between 02-03 and 03-04. He needs to get the FG% up over .500, preferrably closer to about .525, that'd be nice to see. And it's not like he's going up against huge guys out east, so it's a very feasable thing to hope for.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting MagicFan3:</div><div class="quote_post">Well the Magic need a young center... </div> You may need one, but Curry won't be going there, cause, I'm not really sure if you guys have anything the Bulls need to give in return.

JC was known as a ballhog even though he was the only other scoring option, because curry was inconsistent at times in the season, jalen rose was known as a ballhog even though he was the main scoring option (JC was becoming a scoring option and did after rose was dealt). curry can get better by taking more shots, he'll learn, socrng is going up as you saw.
Curry's been making me angry lately. First nut-punching Haywood, and now he wants out of Chicago. But, I still think it's best he stays, unless we can trade him for someone like Shareef Abdur-Rahim, But that's unlikely without probably giving up another core player.

You're not taken into account his increased minutes every year. His per minute production actually decreased from 02/03 to 03/04.
I don't expect Curry to make it through the season with his attitude and the type of player he is. This is not who John Paxson wants.

Sacramento? Indiana? Toronto? Denver? I dont think he is going anywhere he is to much of a risk player and the GM's are going to wait until the end of the year to see if he is worth signing.
curry needs to stop bitching, he hasn't proven anything yet. he's just like every other player in the nba, when something goes wrong for a little bit they act like little girls.
