2 things came to my mind.

1. He's annorexic

or

2. Jared from Subway better fear for his job.

OMG, he looks sickly. Is he alright?

Ya know, a big man needs some weight to keep true centers out of the paint. They might need to get Eddy to bulk up a bit. They should have the trainers work on that.

Jokes aside, its great he is finally getting his weight down. There is no way you can stay healthy and last an entire season at the size he was. Odd that he finally is losing the weight in the last couple of years of his contract though. But props to putting the weight off, too much stress is put on the body when you weigh that much

Somebody give Curry's number to Mike Sweetney, he needs some of what he's taking/getting/doing.

Best of luck to Eddy Curry on his comeback thing though :applause: Hope he can stay in shape.

^^ This is an old pic I think, and by the looks of the pics and youtube clip, he lost more weight over time. How the fck did it ever get out of hand this bad in the first place?

Not only does he look great, he sounds much more mature from that interview.

I'm really shocked.

He's probably just trying to get in shape so the Knicks don't take legal action.

There were 2 reasons Curry was so fat.

1. He has a heart condition

2. The only time he used to lift weight is when he got his lazy ass out of bed.

I give him props though hes been workin hard.

Well from the look of it, he had a solid build for a while, even though he looked somewhat out of shape.

It seems if anything... he was doing only weight training... and not enough cardio & dynamic weight training. He was probably just doing the "hood" workout... eat alot & bench press... and just think you are going to get ripped. :confusedshrug:

Damn, was even that size in high school? Props to him for getting in shape. He could still be a solid center. I hope he does well. Look forward to seeing him play again.

He does look a lot like Plaxico Burress now.

Jerry Powell and Greg Brittenham are going to become a hot name within the basketball trainer circle now. Brittenham is the Knicks trainer who worked with Curry during his recent rehab. Powell is the trainer he worked with over the summer.

Kudos to Curry. Your work has clearly paid off.

He lost a whole lot of weight in the summer of 2004 with the Bulls too, but couldn't keep it off. Let's hope this time, he can keep the weight off. If so, he'd be a great addition to the Knicks this year.

With guaranteed money rolling in regardless of his body shape, it's all about the internal motivation, and it's always a good thing to hear examples of guys who care enough to put in the work.

It kinda boggles my mind how a professional basketball player can be out of shape and overweight in the first place, but at least he stepped up and did something about it.

He probably spent enough there to keep one full-time employee.
Odd that he finally is losing the weight in the last couple of years of his contract though.
He probably wants another one. Nothing odd about that, cuz as fat and unproductive as he was this was going to be his last.

You have it backwards here.

Teams should be able to place fitness standards in the writing of contracts - not that the Players Union would ever go for it....

triangleoffense, I must admit, your screenshot is awesome.
Teams should be able to place fitness standards in the writing of contracts - not that the Players Union would ever go for it....
If they got enough monetary concessions and the language of the deal made an exception for injuries they might concede. The vast majority of players stay in reasonable shape, even in the offseason.

If he can stay in this kind of shape, I'd keep him as a Knicks fan. His low post game is one of the best in the league, and he's an absolute beast down there. Versatility and power in terms of scoring.
