    What's the opinion on him, any chance he's too weak to use our pick on or way too good? I've only heard he's much more like Dell Curry which is exactly what we need off the bench with Delfino & Garcia probably out.

    He was a senior this season. I watched him during his entire Duke career and would absolutely love him on the Rockets. He may be small for a 2 but if him and Harden are in together he'd be able to guard the other teams point guard. He's honestly just Steph minus the passing and handles.

    So he can shoot as well as Steph?

    Wow, imagine a backcourt of the two Curry bros.

    Great point... even though he's undersized, he can be paired with Harden... similar to what Philly did with Eric Snow/AI.

    At this stage, he's looking no better than a 45th pick, so the Rockets can probably buy their way to nab him.

    He is a worse shooter than Steph but he is a Curry.

    He is worse than Steph in every way and because of that will have an even harder time getting his shot off in the NBA. He might be worth drafting in the 2nd round but I don't see him making an NBA roster. He's a paperweight that is too slow, has mediocre handles and no hops.

    There will be a lot better option than Curry on the board.

    When I saw him play for Duke last year, I thought he was pretty mediocre to be honest. I don't think he'll make a team.

    They could pick him up as a free agent.

    I guess you can consider him slow but he's really shifty and for the most part can create space for himself with or without the ball. His handles aren't bad, but certainly not good enough to be a point guard in this league. And if you watched him at all this season you would see that there was several instances where he had bigger guys on him and was still able to execute. Let's not forget that Seth rarely practiced all season due to his shin injury and still went out there got buckets. His shooting is enough to earn him a spot on someones roster, the high IQ and basketball instincts are just a plus.

    Defenders in the NBA will be bigger, stronger and faster than what he faced in the ACC. The increased physicality and speed in the NBA will give him problems. Even Danny Green looked like a superb athlete when he swarmed Steph in the playoffs.

    Will be interesting to see how he does in summer league.

    Would be a good pick for marketing to Indian fans.

    Let's make an analogy

    Steph is like Indian Curry
    Seth is like Thai Curry

    Seth is pretty bad and a waste of money.

    I agree. I loved Indian curry growing up but when I got the chance to taste some real Thai curry, no contest!

    You know nothing Jon Snow!

    Anyway, it's more like this.

    Dell = Indian Curry .. the one that we all heard of first
    Steph = Thai Curry .. without a doubt, the best Curry
    Seth = Lao Curry .. not so well known and not popular, but can give a surprising kick.
