<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Eddy Curry filed the necessary paperwork with the National Basketball Association Players Association on Thursday to hire Philadelphia-based agent Leon Rose. Having represented Luol Deng and former Bull Rick Brunson, Rose has a solid working relationship with Bulls general manager John Paxson and is well-regarded throughout the league. Curry previously was represented by Darren White. The move is considered a positive development in the Bulls' desire to have Curry take a DNA test to possibly determine if his enlarged heart is a genetic trait or a signal that cardiomyopathy is present. Both Hank Gathers and Reggie Lewis had cardiomyopathy when they collapsed and died playing basketball. The condition is a thickening of the heart muscle that can be fatal when arrhythmia is present.</div> Source
Why wouldn't they have him take a DNA test earlier in the process? Is it just a last resort type of test or something? Just seems odd to me that they would wait this long to see if it was in his genes or if he actually had cardiomyopathy.
vince from what i have understood his former agent was causing problems with it. he was advising him to not do it i believe. his former agent was actually an accountant that saw Curry as his meal plan and was not really a respected agent. the new agent is well respected and knows how the league opperates. hes gonna tell Curry that no team will go after him with out these tests so that he will get it done.
