    Well, he can handle for all 24 seconds, that's for sure. Don't know about the passing. Why you say he is a very good passer?

    I thought he did last year. People on ClutchFans seem to have tunnelvision. Very "what have you done for me lately". Which is stupid when "lately" is two whole games.

    I concur. We should have kept Lin, but we might be able to use Flynn as a expiring/trade chip later on.

    I saw him take over for the injured curry at golden state. He looks to be a very productive back up that can start.

    Letting go of Lin was a mistake, but out of what we got...

    Dragic is without a doubt the second best PG on the team -- not too surprising seeing as Flynn is awful.

    BUT

    T-Will is, in my mind, without a doubt the second best passer on the team. His court vision is phenomenal, he's just needs to better blend his many talents into one cohesive skillset. It almost seems like he choosing what he's going to do before he does it. Basketball isn't that type of game; it's a game of reaction rather than thought. Hopefully it's just early season butterflies and he sorts it out.

    Will he be a star? It's hard to say... but I'm leaning toward no at the moment, hope I'm proven wrong.

    I think Flynn. He seems like the pass-first point guard I like, whereas Dragic and T-Will generally look to score. I'd really like to see Flynn get some more time.

    Regarding Goran, I'm confused if he's really a pg or is just a sg with playmaking skills (like Wade). I don't get that pg vibe when I see him play, I think he plays better when he goes into attack mode rather than looking to distribute. If Kmart ever gets traded I'd like to see how Lowry and Goran play together. Best case scenario you'd have the best defensive backcourt in the L.

    I'd like to see Goran at SG with Lowry too.

    Since the question has the word potential in it, you have to go with T-Will. The guy has loads of potential but will he ever put it all together? That's the tricky part.

    I like Goran, but you're right. He is extremely annoying to watch sometimes.

    Pass the rock...

    Just a couple notes on the poll. It's obvious that this board strongly believes that one of either Goran TWill should be facilitating when Lowry isn't in there because 90% of the vote goes to them two.

    The second point is the fans here are split almost down the middle between the two of them.

    I would suspect those that voted for Goran have a strong dislike for TWill because of his antics. I would also suspect the majority of those that voted for TWill probably feel that Goran is more of a shooter than a playmaker. JMO

    The offense shouldn't need a "facilitator", if it's the Adelman offense, which is supposedly what Finch is supposed to be teaching. Where am I going wrong?

    Bump. This is what some of the experts thought about Dragic just 3 1/2 months ago.

    For the record, I voted for Twill since I thought he was the most natural passer on the team.
