Why The Brooklyn Nets Do The Deal
Let’s be completely honest here: this deal is not a blockbuster. Both of the players here are good, but neither is likely to be mistaken for Steph Curry.
Well, OK – maybe one of them is, but it isn’t due to his level of NBA production.
To answer the question, we ought to compare Seth Curry and Grayson Allen first. Realistically, they’re comparable NBA players.
With that said, Curry is a more reliable shooter (though Allen is no slouch in that regard) and a better shot creator. Meanwhile, Allen is a stronger defensive presence and has made more of a reputation for making hustle plays.

For that reason, he could be a better fit for these Nets. After all, their offense is likely to run through Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and Ben Simmons. Allen’s motor may be worth more to them than Curry’s ability to hit tough shots.
Can the Bucks make the same calculus?
