Newsday <div align="center"></div> CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Curry arrived just after 7 o'clock last night and forward Antonio Davis arrived earlier, in time to watch the evening workout. Team officials, however, delayed an announcement until today, pending the outcome of Curry's tests. Curry's orthopedic exam was scheduled to take place in training camp rather than in New York, and league rules require the deal to be completed or rescinded by today. Team officials, however, delayed an announcement until today, pending the outcome of Curry's tests. Curry's orthopedic exam was scheduled to take place in training camp rather than in New York, and league rules require the deal to be completed or rescinded by today. Although one specialist retained by the Bulls wanted Curry to submit to a DNA test to see if the irregular heartbeat that sidelined him at the end of last season was an indicator of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a potentially fatal heart condition, four other specialists cleared him to play. Based on their research, the Knicks were confident enough to trade for Curry, but an air of doubt arose yesterday when test results were not announced as team president Isiah Thomas indicated they would be Tuesday night. Until Curry is declared fit, it's possible the trade could be rescinded, but coach Larry Brown said he wasn't worried about the delay. Asked about Curry's arrival earlier in the day, Brown said: "When it happens, it happens. This is the second day [of camp]. I don't think it's critical." Assuming all goes well, the 6-11, 285-pound Curry and 7-1, 280-pound James would give the Knicks the size they have lacked at center since the Patrick Ewing trade five years ago. It's possible Curry could slide to power forward next to James, but Brown said his gut reaction is that both will stick to center. "I haven't seen them together, but it would be difficult because they're both really low-post players," Brown said. Curry can step out to shoot a midrange jumper, as Brown wants his power forward to do, but the coach prefers Curry under the basket, where he's most effective. "Since he got in the pros, he's been a real force on the post," Brown said. "You might say, 'I'm going to pound the ball inside,' and put two big guys down there and let them rebound the ball ... I don't know, but it's a nice situation to have." Read full article
