Life is tough for Knicks fans - and this next story isn't going to make them feel much better.

During a recent appearance on the All The Smoke podcast, Warriors superstar Steph Curry said he thought he was headed to the Knicks when he was drafted in 2009.

Curry told hosts Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes "I wanted to go to New York and thought I was going to New York". Instead, the Warriors snatched him up at #7 overall - one pick before the Knicks were on the clock.
