Difficult to curry favor

There is a free agent center out there ready to sign with a contending team. But Eddy Curry has such a poor history with the Knicks that he is considered untouchable, according to many NBA scouts. Curry apparently told friends he was ready to sign with the Heat, but Miami may not be interested. Curry has said he’s been ready to play for the past two years and only Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni has prevented a return to action. Curry is only 28 but his best years are far behind him, unless he somehow gets the opportunity to play.
