DBLdrbl 11 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 With Rubio agreeing to come play for the T-Wolves next season Jonny Flynn could be on the block. How good of a fit could he be in Orlando? Although he is not close to the 2 powerhouse point guards often mentioned in fantasy situations, is Flynn a more realistic alternative to Chris Paul or Deron Williams?

NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 Definitely a realistic option for us if he goes on the block, and that's a big "IF". Don't count Rubio coming to the NBA until he actually is in a T Wolves uniform. Flynn hasn't really been able to showcase a whole lot since being drafted, mainly due to injury. If he could stay healthy, which is another big "IF, he could help us out a lot. He's got quite a bit of potential still and we'd be younger, as well as more athletic. I'd say it's worth a shot if no better options come to fruition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Penny Hardaway's Ghost 260 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 totally realistic. Nelson/Duhon/Arenas/Flynn screams of realism. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 Gives us room to flip Jameer later. Kind of obvious I thought Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shock Phantom 263 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 If we could get him for cheap then I wouldn't mind having him as a back-up. I really don't want Duhon playing more than garbage minutes. This is all considering Jameer is gone, obviously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course! The Finals aren't even over so everything at this point is speculation. The move that we make will come completely out of left field. Half of the fans will be very happy with who we bring in while the other half is complaining that the guy we got is injury prone and too old.

Penny Hardaway's Ghost 260 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 not to mention with Flynn's track record, I'm sure he's exactly the type of player Dwight is referring to when he says he wants the right types around him. Flynn is a proven thoroughbred in the NBA. 3 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 not to mention with Flynn's track record, I'm sure he's exactly the type of player Dwight is referring to when he says he wants the right types around him. Flynn is a proven thoroughbred in the NBA. True, but we're depleted of any players or pieces another team would find valuable so getting one of the guys he wants for this year is not going to happen. I like the idea of taking on a couple of big expirings and get in the 2012 Free Agency Sweepstakes. That's our best shot of bringing in CP3 or D Will although we still risk losing Dwight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miller4Prez66 545 Report post Posted June 2, 2011 I don't like Flynn, but if we traded Jameer for a wing. I'd be okay with him as a backup to Arenas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
