We often wonder what if an iconic player wandered to a different organization or franchise then what would be the history now if that is the case? In 2008 Davidson nearly beat Kansas to advance to the Final Four Steph Curry wound up returning for another season at Davidson and a year later would enter the 2009 NBA Draft the Warriors took him at 7th and the rest is history.
But what if Steph had taken the shot instead and Davidson knocked out Goliath here's what would have happened if Steph Curry had left for the NBA in 2008 with the sixth pick in the 2008 NBA Draft the New York Knicks select Stephen curry Davidson after staff led Davidson past Kansas the Cinderella run was completed by beating UNC and then Memphis in the final satisfied with his career at Davidson
Curry entered the 2008 NBA Draft instead of taking a collegiate victory lap the Knicks rejoiced his new head coach Mike D'Antoni and team president Donnie Walsh drooled over the idea of Steph leaving D’ Antoni's high tempo offense new york's front office saw Curry's having the potential to be their Steve Nash.
Steve kerr also thought so but it's 2008 and the Knicks have first crack at him so meanwhile Steph actually wanted to be a Knick I make up a lot of for these but not that so Curry's stayed on the East Coast and look to be proof of the change in mentality by the Knicks he developed slowly but eventually beat out the mighty Chris Duhon for the starting role and in D'Antoni's high tempo offense he put up numbers that earned him second place honors in the Rookie of the Year voting New York missed the playoffs but the new look Knicks showed promise that they hoped to build on in the offseason.
