5 Dream Targets For New York Knicks In 2017 NBA Free Agency

Stephen Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors

If the Knicks aren’t convinced Holiday is the answer, maybe they should go for arguably the NBA’s best point guard, right? This is a hypothetical dream scenario, so yes–let’s pretend like the Knicks would actually stand a chance of signing Stephen Curry if he hit the market.

I’ve discussed this situation before, but what if Curry wins a ring again this postseason? At that point does he decide he needs a new challenge and take his talents elsewhere? It seems crazy to imagine him playing anywhere else, but it’s not crazy when you consider the moves other players have made in the past.

Curry could take the return-home approach and sign with the Charlotte Hornets. His father played for the Hornets as well, so that seems like an interesting potential fit with some family ties. Or maybe he decides he needs a larger market and looks for a team like the Knicks. Golden State fans would hate it, but it isn’t as unrealistic as you might think.

When it all comes down to it, Curry should be back with the Warriors in 2017-18. However, seeing as this is a dream scenario, I’m speculating that New York could and should put up a huge fight when he hypothetically becomes available in the coming months. Having him running things in the Big Apple would definitely be a dream come true for the Knicks.
