You wouldn't have noticed him much Wednesday night against the Bulls when he made his first appearance here since he left the club in a bitter trade in the fall. Eddy Curry wasn't quite Darrell Imhoff or John Gianelli in the pantheon of Knicks centers, but he has a long way to go before Willis Reed or Patrick Ewing take notice of him. "I had a lot of ups and downs," Curry said earlier in the day about his stay in Chicago. "The fans got frustrated." That's right, fans are like everyone around Curry who sees what he can be and notices what he is. In the Bulls' 106-104 overtime victory at the United Center this night, it was Knicks coach Larry Brown who was gesturing to Curry to be strong with the ball after one timeout in the second half. Then Michael Sweetney blocked his shot. Eddy, you coulda been part of a contender. Well, neither the Bulls nor Knicks looked like one in this game as they spent most of the game in a sluggish slugfest that heated up in overtime with Curry fouling out, Chris Duhon and the Knicks' Maurice Taylor getting ejected for a dust-up after a hard pick and Antonio Davis going into the stands when he said he saw someone quarreling with his wife.</div> <div align="center">Source</div>
