This kid is awesome.
I have no idea why we didn't recruit him, but neither did anyone else. Davidson got a gem with this guy. I hope Davidson goes far in the tournament. 3/24/2008 9:59:24 AM |

so maybe he's 6'1 175 3/24/2008 10:02:05 AM |

He was a PG in High School though, probably not a "great" one so he was skipped over by many.

I am telling you guys we should have shooed in Bob McKillop while they were playing here and had Curry transfer with him and have 2 years to light up all the ACC teams that didn't give him a chance. 3/24/2008 10:31:30 AM |

next season in my dreams would have gone like this:
PG - Lorenzo Brown commits SG - Curry transfers to ncsu G/F Fells sniper 3 shot improves F Costner becomes a major inside/outside threat F/C McCauley continues to improve C Hickson stays G Degand shows up playing like it's his senior year 3/24/2008 10:56:53 AM |

Curry actually wanted to go to VT and all Greenberg would offer was the chance for him to walk-on. Many other coaches looked at the kid's small frame and assumed he would not be able to handle the talent at the major conference level. 3/24/2008 11:54:20 AM |

I would have walked on at VT if I were him
He easily would have been starting and gotten a full scholarship after one year
and its not like his family couldn't have afforded the year of tuition

He supposedly has a younger brother who is a sophomore in high school is a better shooter then Stephan was at the same age.

we've had season tickets to davidson for 6 years now and watching this kid is sick. glad he's finally getting some publicity because him and Richards have been dirty all year.
I definitely think davidson is the right fit for him. I doubt he could of ever got time at VT until maybe his junior/senior yr.
Curry's bro is pretty sick too from what I've heard. He is just as small as Stephen was tho. 3/24/2008 12:36:31 PM |

I saw Johnny Thomas's school (Greensboro Day) beat them for the state championship Curry's senior year. Either he had an off game or improved a ton since then. He only had 13 points, and the defense was focusing on their center (Omar Carter, now a freshman at Charleston Southern).3/24/2008 12:57:59 PM |

many moons ago, i "worked" at q-zar, a laser tag place that briefly operated in charlotte. i use quotation marks cause i was under age, so they paid me in free games. my sister actually worked there, and i knew most of the staff, so i had a pretty sweet gig.
anyway, dell curry came in and reserved the place for stephen's birthday. this was 10-12 years ago, so i guess he was around 8. dell wouldnt play laser tag, so he spent his time hangin out in the lobby and playin the occasional video game. well, we had a 3 point shootout arcade game that we'd rigged up to play for free, so i had become quite the pro at it. i challenged dell curry to a shootout on it and he laughed and agreed. i ended up winning by a couple shots. he told me we could try it again on a real goal, and we laughed, he gave me a high five of sorts, and that was that.
nothing22 told me i should tell that story.
oh, i also played against dell and stephen at the siskey ymca in mint hill, nc. there's another former hornet that plays there sometimes, but i cant for the life of me remember his name. i've also played with steve smith there. good place to go if you ever want to play against football players or has been nba stars. dell would basically cross half court and launch a 3 every time down if he had the ball. if stephen had it, he'd tell him to score no matter what. i guess preparing him to be the star of the show.
