This is what Eddy Curry is associated with right now in his career. The only thing he could provide for the Nets is another mouth to feed, a hungry one at that. |
Yep, Eddy Curry, seriously. In their seemingly desperate search for a back-up center, the Nets have tapped former NBA player Hilton Armstrong and Eddy Curry for work-outs. NBA fans in the New York City area should know both of these players well. Armstrong, a Westchester, NY native, was a star at the nearby basketball powerhouse University of Connecticut while Curry played on the Knicks from 2005-10.
Unlike the addition of Donte Greene to the team, I don’t like Armstrong or Curry as potential members of the Nets. Both players have nice size but Armstrong just hasn’t been able to convert his physical skills into solid performance during his NBA career while Curry has suffered from a myriad of injuries, weight problems, and even a heart condition in recent years.
Sorry Billy King, but neither of these guys would be a good fit on the Nets and certainly wouldn’t be more than a benchwarmer at this point in their respective NBA careers.
