Curry Wants Bobcats, Workout Scheduled


Recommended Posts

I don't know if they wouldn't.   His rookie contract is up soon and he will be looking for a max contract, something I think it will be difficult for the Pacers to give him.  If they get into negotiating and find that he is asking for too much, they might not have a choice.  A package with Gordon(cap relief), MKG(young player with loads of potential) and a lottery pick in the best draft of the last decade would give them a pretty good return for a player they would have to let walk for nothing.

 

No chance they trade Paul George. They have made sure to have cap space open for next season so that they can for sure sign him. Everyone knows that Paul George will be getting a max contract and there was a report out a few days ago that the Pacers and Paul George have already begun contract extension talks. I would be completely shocked if they traded him, and even more shocked if they traded him to Charlotte for MKG, Ben Gordon, and a 1st round pick.

Was so pissed this game. Would love for him to do this.

 

I was there, just off to the right of the basket in the front row of the student section.

 

This is why I don't want Curry, and yes, it's personal.

 

We talked so much trash to him before the game, even started a "Brother's better" and later a "Little brother" chant with my bud, then he showed us up hard in the game and kept taunting us and stuff. But then again, if we land Seth, maybe Steph will wanna join him soon enough?  :cam:

Indiana will more than likely give Paul George a max deal regardless of where they are with their salary cap.  Teams have the ability to go over the cap to re-sign their own players... it is called owning their Bird Rights.

Now how could we have a workout scheduled with a player under contract with another team?

Curry wants Bobcats?

 

Sorry but when I hear the last name Curry I thought Steph Curry. I didn't know Seth Curry was so good that he only went by his last name.

 

As for signing him, I really don't think he will be an NBA player. He doesn't have the speed or athletic ability to play in the NBA. He also is not as good as a shooter as his brother and father.

 

 

There was a reason he wasn't drafted.

I understand that, but Indiana doesn't want to go over the cap.

I'm not sure of the validity of this article because it goes against what Seth said, (according to Curry, if the Bobcats offer a training camp invitation; he will accept it) and on top of that I couldn't find it on the Roanoke Times website but nonetheless here is an excerpt from HoopsHype.

 

Seth Curry said he now feels about 85 percent healthy and expects to compete in an NBA training camp in the fall. He said he has received camp invitations from the Warriors, San Antonio Spurs, Minnesota Timberwolves and Charlotte Bobcats but has yet to pick one of those teams. “I’m just trying to get healthy right now and do some workouts for a few teams,” he said. “I did pretty well [while] injured, so once I get back 100 percent and show teams I can handle the ball full time, then I have a lot of confidence in myself.” Roanoke Times

    • Exactly the type of thing he would have done here. The excuse people were stannin’ so hard claiming he would have looked just as bad. Just not true. 
    • Yes and there aren't 32 starting QBs in the league either. Too many teams and too many games. The NFL has regressed over the years and game quality is lacking. The other leagues are supposed to be farm leagues but it doesn't matter. You just won't have 32 no matter what they do. The move to super athletes playing QB at all levels has lead to this. It used to be those guys played other positions but now they are QBs who can't really QB.  It has a trickle down effect too. OL can't block because they never had to. The fact that in today's game your QB must be able to run at least a little to survive is evidence of this as well. IMO they have ruined the game same as with the NBA. It's been simplified to the point of being boring.  Just look at the top 10 this season. Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) Joe Burrow (Bengals) Josh Allen (Bills) Lamar Jackson (Ravens) Dak Prescott (Cowboys) Jalen Hurts (Eagles) Brock Purdy (49ers) Jordan Love (Packers) Justin Herbert (Chargers) Matthew Stafford (Rams) Once we get to number 5 the stats look like this: 167 262 1,845 63.7 7.0 10 8 65 18 84.5   47.5   10 TDs and 8 INTs??? At number 5??? There was a time not that long ago that he wouldn't even be a starter.   
    • I'm not convinced that the NFL is any better or worse at developing QBs now than they were 20 years ago.  I mean I'm sure there are some developmental issues at play, just not sure it is any different than it has been. The biggest difference IMO is that NFL teams are waaaaaaaay more willing to invest a 1st round pick into a QB now than they were 15-20 years ago.  A guy like Colin Kaepernick would probably be a top 5 pick in 2025, whereas he went in the 2nd in 2011.  Would a guy like Trey Lance go top 3 in 2010?  Hell no.  Look at Russell Wilson - he didn't go until the 3rd round.  The standard for being a 1st round QB has dropped. So it may seem like we're seeing more high-profile busts at the position, but we're also seeing teams reach for QBs way more than they have in the past.  Someone with Anthony Richardson's college resume doesn't go in the top 3 20 years ago.
