Seth Curry talks about competing against Stephen Curry

When Seth Curry appeared on the “All the Smoke” podcast and was asked about competing with his brother in the 2019 Western Conference Finals, Here is what he had to say:

“For 82 games out of the year, I want to see him play well, I want to see him win. But when we strapping up and playing against each other, It’s the opposite. I am going out there trying to shut him down, wanna see them lose. When we competing, It Gets Nasty!”

The younger brother goes on to acknowledge the greatness of his brother while mentioning how he changed the game. He also speaks about coming out of the shadow of his father and brother, while getting recognized for his own accomplishments:

“It feels good. People look at me who I am and look at my individual game, what I have accomplished. I am confident in my own skin.”

Seth Curry could never catch up to his brother

Growing up in Charlotte, the Curry brothers were always into sports. Their father being an NBA player gave them more incentive to achieve success in the field of basketball. Seth talks about how they continuously competed and fought as children. He claimed he was always chasing his older brother.
