The Seth Curry Career Scoring Watch

[CDu]

Curry just keeps on putting up monster numbers. He added 24 against Ga Tech, as he continues to do the heavy lifting offensively in ACC play. He now has 1,759 points (707 at Liberty, 1,052 at Duke), leaving him 241 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

16 games: 15.06 ppg
17 games: 14.8 ppg
18 games: 13.39 ppg
19 games: 12.68 ppg
20 games: 12.05 ppg
21 games: 11.48 ppg
22 games: 10.95 ppg
23 games: 10.48 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 16.9 ppg this season. I think it's evident that if he stays healthy, he'll get to 2,000. The health is the question. He's missed 1+ games with separate ankle injuries, and there's always the lingering concern about the shin. But if he can stay on the court each game the rest of the way, he may just get it done before the ACC tournament.[/QUOTE]

Curry dropped a goose egg last night, adding 0 points to his total. He still has 1,759 points (707 at Liberty, 1,052 at Duke), leaving him 241 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

15 games: 16.07 ppg
16 games: 15.06 ppg
17 games: 14.18 ppg
18 games: 13.39 ppg
19 games: 12.68 ppg
20 games: 12.05 ppg
21 games: 11.48 ppg
22 games: 10.95 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 15.9 ppg this season. If we were to lose in the first round of the ACC and NCAA tournament, he'd need to improve his season scoring average to reach 2,000. That's not likely to happen, of course, but it would be nice for Ryan Kelly to come back and push that probability closer to 0 percent.

Curry added 13 in today's blowout of Maryland. He now has 1,772 points (707 at Liberty, 1,065 at Duke), leaving him 228 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

14 games: 16.29 ppg
15 games: 15.2 ppg
16 games: 14.25 ppg
17 games: 13.41 ppg
18 games: 12.67 ppg
19 games: 12 ppg
20 games: 11.4 ppg
21 games: 10.86 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 15.7 ppg this season. Still chipping away. Hopefully he can have another big game soon to get that scoring average back up.

Dissent! I am rooting hard for him to average 11 ppg over the rest of the season... and still get to 2000 career points.

Curry chipped in 21 in today's blowout of Maryland. He now has 1,793 points (707 at Liberty, 1,086 at Duke), leaving him 207 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

13 games: 15.92 ppg
14 games: 14.79 ppg
15 games: 13.8 ppg
16 games: 12.94 ppg
17 games: 12.18 ppg
18 games: 11.5 ppg
19 games: 10.89 ppg
20 games: 10.35 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 16.0 ppg this season. So at this point, even if we lost in the first round of both the ACC and NCAA tournament, he'd need to only match his season average. Provided he stays healthy enough to play all the games, it's likely going to happen for him. Here's hoping (for his sake and our season's sake) that he manages to avoid any serious injuries the rest of the way.

You mean Wednesday's tight win against Wake, right?

Uggh, I'm living in the past. Stupid cut and paste fail! Yes - Wednesday night's win over Wake.

Just to update one vigil that I mentioned earlier in this thread.

Seth and Stephen Curry have now combined for 4,428 points ... that's the second best brother total in NCAA history.

They still trail Tyler and Ben Hansbrough, who had 4,485 between them at a variety of schools.

Seth needs 57 more points to tie the Hansbrough brothers ... 58 to take the record. It shouldn't be too long.

PS It just struck me about how similar the two brother combos are. Stephen and Tyler each played at one school -- and ended up as that school's career scoring leader. Ben Hansbrough started at Mississippi State and transferred to Notre Dame for his last two years. Seth started at Liberty and transferred to Duke.

Tyler outscored Stephen 2,872 to 2,635

Seth has already outscored Ben 1,793 to 1,635. Obviously, he's going to widen that lead.

It's going to be close, but wouldn't it be neat if the Curry brothers became the first brother combo to each top 2,000 points?

Curry chipped in 21 in yesterday's blowout of FSU. He now has 1,814 points (707 at Liberty, 1,107 at Duke), leaving him 186 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

12 games: 15.5 ppg
13 games: 14.31 ppg
14 games: 13.29 ppg
15 games: 12.4 ppg
16 games: 11.63 ppg
17 games: 10.94 ppg
18 games: 10.33 ppg
19 games: 9.79 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 16.3 ppg this season. So at this point, even if we lost in the first round of both the ACC and NCAA tournament, he doesn't even need to match his season average. The countdown continues![/QUOTE]

Curry backed up Mason's 30 with 26 of his own in last night's handling of State. He now has 1,840 points (707 at Liberty, 1,133 at Duke), leaving him 160 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

11 games: 14.55 ppg
12 games: 13.33 ppg
13 games: 12.31 ppg
14 games: 11.43 ppg
15 games: 10.67 ppg
16 games: 10.00 ppg
17 games: 9.41 ppg
18 games: 8.89 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 16.7 ppg this season. Barring injury, the question is when, not if, he'll get there. It's not inconceivable that he could do it in the game at Chapel Hill (he'd need to average "just" 17.8 ppg to do it). But a more realistic possibility would be the first or second game of the ACC tournament.

Curry chipped in 18 in last night's squeaker against BC. He now has 1,858 points (707 at Liberty, 1,151 at Duke), leaving him 142 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

10 games: 14.2 ppg
11 games: 12.91 ppg
12 games: 11.83 ppg
13 games: 10.92 ppg
14 games: 10.14 ppg
15 games: 9.47 ppg
16 games: 8.88 ppg
17 games: 8.35 ppg

Curry is currently averaging 16.8 ppg this season, and 17.5 ppg in ACC play. Barring injury, the question is when, not if, he'll get there.

Thanks for the updates on a great senior approaching a wonderful milestone (and congrats to the Curry brothers for their accomplishment in combined career NCAA scoring).

Here's hoping Seth passes the 2000 point on Wednesday night. What, scoring 142 by himself against the Tarheels is too much to ask?

Curry had a big game in today's loss to Maryland (ugggh!). He now has 1,894 points (707 at Liberty, 1,187 at Duke), leaving him 106 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Here's the breakdown of what he needs to do to get there:

8 games: 13.25 ppg
9 games: 11.78 ppg
10 games: 10.6 ppg
11 games: 9.64 ppg
12 games: 8.83 ppg
13 games: 8.15 ppg
14 games: 7.57 ppg
15 games: 7.07 ppg


Curry is currently averaging 16.9 ppg this season, and 18.1 ppg in ACC play. Barring injury, the question is when, not if, he'll get there. At his ACC pace, he would reach 2,000 in the game at Chapel Hill (he'd need to average "just" 17.7 ppg to do it).

Since Maryland, Seth has scored 22 at VT and 11 against BC. By my calculations he is now at 1927 has a chance of getting to 2000 in the regular season. If his health holds up, he should go well beyond, provided Duke does anything at all in the tournaments.

And I think Mason hit 999 rebounds today.

Didn't he hit 1014 today? I think he started the game at 999 and had 15 today.

1 behind Singler. Needs 54 to be #4 behind Shelden, G-Man and Christian. Has a good shot.

Yeah, I apparently dropped the ball this week. Since Maryland, Curry has added 22 against VT and 11 against BC. He now has 1,927 points (707 at Liberty, 1,220 at Duke), leaving him 73 points shy of 2,000 for his career. Barring injury, he's going to get there. Let's see what it would take to get there before (or during/after) the ACC tournament.

3 games: 24.33 ppg
4 games: 18.25 ppg
Tourney play:
5 games: 14.6 ppg
6 games: 12.17 ppg
7 games: 10.43 ppg
8 games: 9.12 ppg

So there's a reasonably decent chance he does it against UNC.
