How? Jrue is bigger then both, has just as good pg skills as both, he's defensive specialist.....
How would that be wrong? If Rubio is not at 4 I wouldn't mind getting Jrue even though its a reach.

Or because he is flat out a better basketball player
no, but the media stereotypes just like fans do. White players work hard and are smart, black players run like gazelles and jump out of the gym.

With that shot, I doubt it. If he were three inches taller he would be going number 1.

If he were 3 inches taller he probably wouldn't have been at Davidson either

There is NO reason why the Knicks should not take Flynn.

Winning is when one group of 12 beats the other group of 12...simple as that.
Blake Griffin is just flat out BETTER than Tyler Hansbrough however you want to slice it. Forget upside.

....my point was not to play the what if game, but rather the fact that the only way he would flop would be because of his size, which I don't think hewill. He CAN make his own shot.

You might be the only person in America who will be upset when Tyler Hansbrough doesn't go #1 overall....
And you REALLY think all that separates TH from Blake Griffin is "explosion????" Seriously?

he shouldnt go top 5 because he doesnt have top 5 explosion and jumping ability.
I hope he goes to a team in the late first round that needs his experience and skills.
Blake Griffin is better in that he is a year younger and is more of an elite leaper, rebounder. Blake Griffin is NOT a cant miss prospect however. This is aweak draft class and he might have the best upside in the minds of the NBA teams, but it is not a shoe in that he will be a perennial all star. He has ALOT ofwork to do to be a reliable low post scoring option for a team. A top 5 is expected to be able to be a go to guy at some point.
Pointing out that there isnt such a disparity between their abilities doesnt mean Im trying to say Hansbrough should be #1 or his better in the long run thanGriffin.

Curry is good, but I don't know how you guys see him being better than Flynn. More athletic, bigger body, more all around game. Flynn is the goods.

Curry's potential in D'Antoni's offense >>> Flynn's potential in D'Antoni's offense.

You base that on what, exactly? What does Curry do that Flynn cant? Explain it to me. Tell me something Curry did that Flynn didn't do against way bettercompetition.

Shoot...which is the one skill that will guarantee you a job in the NBA.
In an uptempo offense predicated on shooters and ball movement...I don't see what Flynn brings to the table that Curry can't. Maybe in a typicaloffense I'd probably rather have Flynn. When looking at prospects in a specific system...the "all around" player doesn't always make the mostsense. Chris Paul is the best point guard in the NBA...better than Nash was...even in Nash's prime. Replace Nash with Paul on the Run N Gun Suns teams andthey aren't the same. Why? Because Nash's skillset is just a better fit for the system. Same thing I see with Curry and the Knicks right now.

Dominated college ball? What Kevin Durant did was dominate, what Blake Griffin did was dominate, Hansbum was far from dominating. His teams were superior tomost, he was not.
