Eddy Curry is already in Mike D'Antoni's doghouse in New York, with his conditioning and lack of production leading to his benching, the New York Daily News is reporting.

"He's going to have to play better than what he has shown me," D'Antoni said after Curry did not play in Boston's 101-90 victory at the Garden. "He is going to have to pick it up. He has got to pick up his training."

D'Antoni is even using Malik Rose ahead of Curry.

"I am going to start setting my rotation and it could be that way," D'Antoni said. "The door is never closed, but at the same time we are not going to lower anything we do for anybody. They are going to have to come up to us. If they want to play they know where they have to go.

"Obviously, he missed a couple of weeks early and that set him back," he added, referring to Curry sitting out the first week of training camp with a bacterial infection. "There is plenty of time for him to work and get back into the rotation but he has to make a heck of an effort. I think he knows that and hopefully, he will do that."

Don't worry, they will do anything in their power to make the Knicks a better team.

Isiah destroyed them while he was there. He should be banned from ever coaching, being a gm or owning a team in the NBA.
