He was talking about defense…Seth is a 44% career three point shooter; 47% in the playoffs. He has NEVER shot below 40% from three in his life. Don't compare him to that bum Beasley.
Seth averages 2.1 assists per game in his career; Vincent is 2.3.
ThisSeth Curry can't defend or play make.
There's a theme here with the signings. Find guys who can't get played of the floor. Seth would be Beasley status and y'all want him here. Taurean and Gabe fit that mold of guys who are two players and can hit an open shot. Y'all literally watched the Nuggets series and want Seth Curry
Imma bump all these posts when the season starts. Clearly y'all didn't watch him in the regular season. Yall about to get Kedrick Nunned again.
And when Seth isn’t making shots, what can he do? There’s a reason he signs the type of contracts he signs and bounces from team to team while not being able to stay on a team for more than a year.Seth is a 44% career three point shooter; 47% in the playoffs.

Even if he does fail, what was the alternative? We watched him show out in the playoffs. But you said DLo isn’t good because he doesn’t show up in the playoffs only the reg season? So which is it? Do you value playoff performers or not?
He had one really good series against Boston. That's what yall remember. We've seen players get hot for stretches before then go right back to being trash. His entire body of work says he is mediocre.
Seth has hit shots his entire career. What is Gabe doing when his shot is off, which is much more often than Seth? He is not some defensive stopper.
We don’t need him to be a defensive stopper. We just need him to be competent. Y’all want Seth but yet Gabe was always going to get a bigger bag by every team. Not to mention that this is really the first year that Gabe got real mins, there’s still some potential there.
They can’t give him a higher offer than 52M. that’s his max from them. He got fukked over but that’s the price for getting the bag earlier than everyone else in his class.Considering how he played in the playoffs, anything below the cap hold was going to be a win. He just needs to do it consistently going forward, which is a big "if". But he legit could improve still too.
D-Lo should have the higher ceiling, but this is 100% true if we're going off of last year's postseason. He hit his threes and he played his role on defense, which is all they needed him to do and is a lot more than D-Lo did. And now he's a guy who has experienced back-to-back postseason runs and won't be shook in the Finals. For the contract this is a solid pickup.
Knowing the Lakers, he better not shoot 30% from 3pt last year like some of these guys have the moment they came to LA.
Those would both be useful.
It's a big jump from "became nearly unplayable" to "worth at least 20 million".
He needs serious work on his hands and his shot to be a useful player. His defense is nice but opposing teams in a playoff series figure him out too easy. You can't have someone who is a complete liability at one end in today's NBA - he needs to be come a league-average shooter or an elite rim-runner or a very good passer or something, otherwise he's gonna get played off the court again.
I can't see him missing out on $50 million. Lakers are still going to take care of him. He's getting an offer at least within $20-30 million of what he was going to get on the open market.
Spurs are the only team that can and I can see them doing it just to fukk us over. I think Austin is hoping for that too hence why he hasn’t agreed to the Lakers deal yet.
