A real school?

Will Bryan:

Because of transfer rules, Seth will have to sit out a season and wouldn’t be able to face Stephen even if the Davidson guard decides to return for his senior year.

However, in 2010, the entire country will set their eyes on Duke to provide a misguided answer to an over-asked question: How would Stephen have fared at a real school?

Seth’s next stop

Duke.

Kid brother

Brothers

Wins over ACC teams for the Curry boys?

Seth: 1.

Stephen: 1.

But Seth came close today to No. 2. Real close.

The Brothers Curry

“Stephen has the ability to be one of the best basketball players ever to put on a Davidson jersey.” -- Davidson coach Bob McKillop on Stephen Curry in September 2006

“I think he has a chance to be one of the best players ever to put on a Flames jersey.” -- Liberty coach Ritchie McKay on Seth Curry in November 2008

Stephen Curry.

Seth Curry.

Dell’s boys.

Everyone knows the story of Stephen by now. Skinny kid in ACC country. No big-time offers. Now look: from a good mid-major get to Southern Conference star to first-team All-American. One of THE faces of all of college hoops. The questions, of course, all along the way: What didn’t the big coaches see? What did they MISS?

Well, it’s still early, but Seth had 23 points in the first college game he played, he had 26 in Liberty’s upset over VIRGINIA, he had 21 in a double-overtime win over William & Mary …

Is it happening AGAIN?

This is the new wrinkle in the Stephen Curry story: It’s not just Stephen anymore. Seth, too, now. I don’t want to get all crazy here, and oversell, and overshoot, but I can’t help but think that within the story of these two brothers -- the story of this FAMILY -- are some of the most compelling reasons we watch sports.

We want to know what makes some people succeed and others fail. We want to know what makes some of us overachieve when most of us don’t. And we want in the worst way to believe in the things we can’t scout, or measure, or even explain.
