Re: I would take Jonny Flynn over both Rubio and Jennings
I knew Flynn was going to be great, I covered him in high school.
Dude is mad fast can get to the basket with such a quickness that it leaves you stunned. The only down part of his game last year was passing which I think he has improved on greatly.
He should be a top 20 pick if he enters this year, a lottery pick if he enters after his junior year and top 10 if he stays all 4 years.

2nd round to undrafted. He's down there because he's a big forward in a 6'4" man's body.
By the way, Jonny Flynn had 15 pts, 9 assists, and 7 rebounds today. His steal/mins aren't in the boxscore yet so I'll edit them in when I find out.
I'll post the highlights too.
I definetly agree with you on the kirk = calthes but kirk was wayyyyy more athletic than nick...nick is a great colleg point guard but a 2nd string of the bench in the nba....johnny flynn and all these other point guards are good and jhonny is not coming out this yr i believ he is gonna stay one more year but as a scoring point guard none of these guys have anything on jeff teague now he is a scorer

rubio def is not coming out this year
1. Brandon Jennings
2. Jeff teague
3. Stephan curry
4. Jeff Maynor
5. Pat Mills
6. Darren Collison
7. Ty Lawson
8. Aj price
Re: I would take Jonny Flynn over both Rubio and Jennings
I know the stats, but how is Jennings looking in Europe? I heard at first he was kind of overmatched, but he was holding his own. I know he can be really flashy like Jason Williams, but is he actually doing that playground stuff or is he playing like a traditional point? In the NBA he is going to have a lot of highlight plays, but he needs to worry about leading the team more than breaking ankles and no-look passes, kind of like Rafer Alston learned to do after his playground days.
Re: I would take Jonny Flynn over both Rubio and Jennings
Johnny Flynn is amazing, I would risk a top 5 draft pick on him. The best small point gaurds, are Chris Paul, Steve Nash and Tony Parker. Flynn isn't as skilled as those guys, but he is more athletic and he has potential. What I like most about Flynn is his handle, no necessarily the smoothest but it's effective. He goes left as well as he goes right. Right now what seperates him from a guy like Tony Parker is polish, Parker has a ridiculously smooth handle and can finish at the rim like no other player....ever.
But he is closer to those guys then people think. He has a lot of creativity, and instincts that you can't teach. What he needs is polish. If he improves I could legitimately see him being an elite top 5 point gaurd for a long time.
