Curry Wants To Come To New York Part 5000 PDF Print E-mail
Written by BigC   


stephen curryHere we go again. It looks like the only words that will be coming out of Stephen Curry's mouth until draft night will be something related to him wanting to play for the Knicks. Even when Curry is in his hometown the only thing on Stephen Curry's mind is wearing the orange and blue uniform. Here is what was reported by SI.com:

 Shortly after finishing his first pre-draft workout for the Charlotte Bobcats on Thursday, Curry made it clear that playing for New York in Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni's fast-paced offense is his top choice.

"If I could be picky, yeah, it would be nice to have that kind of setting: Madison Square Garden," Curry said. "I wouldn't mind being home here in Charlotte or anywhere else. New York would be fun with the legacy up there, trying to turn that team around."

The Knicks, picking eighth in the June 25 draft, could be where the sweet-shooting point guard ends up. But following an impressive pre-draft camp performance last week in Chicago, the 6-foot-3 Curry might be gone by then.

Curry said he's received interest from Oklahoma City, which holds the No. 3 pick. Washington, picking fifth, and Minnesota, at No. 6, need help at point guard. Curry said he's also heard from Portland, which may try to move from the 24th pick to snag the top scorer in college basketball last season.
But Curry wants to play in New York. Even with Chris Duhon running the point there, Curry feels that style of play best resembles the system he played under coach Bob McKillop at Davidson -- where he led the surprising Wildcats within a missed 3-pointer of the Final Four in 2008.

I must say this is as aggressive as I have ever seen a player wanting to play for a particular team. That being said, it feels good to have players wanting to playing in New York especially in the rebuilding process.
