    I mean can anybody blame Johnny Flynn for not putting up big numbers in Minnesota?? He was a young pg with no mentoring and no help..

    This guy was very good coming out of syracuse and might just need a change of scenery and to follow a point guard like Lowry on a team full of help and hustlers..

    At least it's the mem pick, there's no telling when we would have seen it. This makes me feel a little better.

    Rockets needed size, they got size. It's a good deal. Flynn will also help. I really like flynn's game, reminds me of tim hardaway.

    That's good to hear...still, he's listed at 220 and I think 250 probably the minimum for him to survive in the middle... definitely doable and we do have the best big man coach in the league.

    Size that doesn't play D or get rebounds isn't really size.

    predraft: I was hoping Houston would grab Jackson at 23, but I'm happy my other team did instead. (barring trade from Presti) 7 foot wingspan on a pg. But,l I guess this really does mean Maynor is a gonner.

    We gave up too much just to move up 2 spots and get a crappy player like Flynn.

    So we just gave up the #23, #38, and a future 1st rounder in the Flynn/MontyBurns deal?

    YES MARCUS MORRIS WAS TERRIBLE PICK.

    but the future 1st is a non-issue. it is heavily protected and we wont see it until 2013 at the earliest

    Don't freak out about the future first. Apparently its the crappy one they received in the Battier/ Thabeet trade. Heavily protected and probably not usable for years.
