Among the Knick items of yesterday was the fervent NY media blitz regarding the return of Eddy Curry tonight, which would mark his first home game since his knees "bailed" on him a few months ago. My concern has been what Coach D'Antoni has stated recently about Curry's mental state on facing the MSG crowd, which will surely stage a booing ovation for number 34. It seems to me that Coach may have been able to play him much earlier than now, and that Eddy's knee seemed to act up right before the team returned home.I am not without sympathy for Eddy, despite my constant bashing of him. He is only 26 years old and has been made into a pariah by the NY media over the past 2 days. Isola from the NY Daily News actually pinpointed Curry as well as Iverson as the root cause of the oft-rumored NBA Lock-out in 2010-2011. Other sportswriters are focusing on what I mentioned. Can Curry stand up and take the anticipated beating by the fans, not to say what will be in the papers tomorrow?
