This will be his role. Expect something in between his last stint in DAL and last season with POR: 20-24 mins at most, add/subtract a few more depending on the game.
Seth is not a starter on a playoff team imho. A 33 win team like in 2016-17? Sure.
He had a big opportunity last night and was severely outplayed: negative 13 last night in plus/minus. Him and Luka almost cost us the game down the stretch. Hopefully Carlisle doesn't make the same mistake going forward.
The starting lineup gave up a comfortable lead to start the second half, which included Seth "Starter" Curry. They were a negative 12 for a 7 minute stretch.
So what does Carlisle do for the final minutes of the game with a 5 point lead? He goes back to his starting line-up that gave up the big lead, which included Seth "Starter" Curry. Who gave up the final 3 to send the game to overtime? That's right, Seth "Starter" Curry.
I KNOW, DWIGHT HELD HIM. But look at how undisciplined Seth's defense was as he went for the block rather than stay on the ground. He doesn't jump, Green chucks a terrible shot and we win the game.
We did not lose because of Seth but I do not see him as a good fit with the other starters. In his 2 starts, he's been a -13 and -7 in plus/minus. So far his on/off court in those 2 starts have been a staggering -44.5.
I will repeat this again, hopefully Carlisle doesn't make the same MISTAKE going forward.
