Now Knicks fans can blame Eddy Curry for something else. It seems the Knicks center, not Allen Iverson, is “The Answer.”

Knicks president Donnie Walsh announced yesterday the team had decided not to sign Iverson, the controversial 34-year-old guard, to a one-year contract.

Walsh linked Curry’s emergence in his season debut Wednesday against the Pacers (10 points and four rebounds in 11 minutes) with tipping the scales against signing Iverson.

In saying the Knicks “rethought” their position on Iverson, Walsh ended a wild week full of flip-flops and fan frenzy favoring the move.
