 I hope T Thornton gets demoted to JV, kid is horrible. But they have a good 3 guard trio with Cook, Sheed and Seth

 What are you stupid Tyler Thornton is the starting PG?

 

NC State has the best PG trio Brown, Lewis, Purvis

I never considered Seth Curry as a PG

 The only PG out of that group is Quinn Cook.

 Sulaimon isn’t anywhere close to a PG, in terms of both skill set and mindset.

If he stayed at Liberty he couldve been oiin the league by now – His brother opened a door for him and alot of mid major guys at that time. Does he even get drafted now?

 Seth Curry was never an NBA player no he will not get drafted

theballerway I absolutely agree with you.

The fact is, being a guy with so many physical shortcomings for the next level, Seth needed that superstar aura and high level production that being at Liberty would have provided. I think many of us are quick to think that going to a high major is always the best decision for a player’s draft stock, but I think there are certain exceptions.

Two examples that always come to mind for me are Steph Curry and Jimmer Fredette. Steph did display an exceptional ability to improve quickly in college, but recorded double digit turnovers his first game and needed an adjustment period. Although he would have faced stiffer competition in the ACC, that opportunity to play through his mistakes wouldn’t have been there.

In Jimmer’s case, for all of the love he got during the 2011 season and incredible production he had at BYU, I always asked…..if he’d been on a Duke team with Kyrie Irving and Nolan Smith, would he have started? Others have told me yes, but I don’t think so. And even if by some way he does, without having the greenest light in the nation, is he a lottery pick?

My whole point is, for a guy like Seth, although he’s a better player overall for having gone to Duke, the opportunity and intrigue for him at the next level won’t be nearly as strong. As a freshman, he was on pace to produce at a similar rate to his brother in college, now it’s considered a concrete fact that he’s the lesser prospect. We all know the league is largely about opportunity. A lot of guys who end up overseas just didn’t get the same chances.
