Jonny Flynn and Donte Greene
Saw the Kings-Twolves game on Sunday night. Sadly Jonny looked completely overmatched by Tyreke Evans. He played about 20 minutes, but barely any in the second half. I believe he scored 12, but 5 came from the line, and most of that was within the first 5 minutes of the game.
Donte however has looked good in both games I've seen this week. He scored 15 against the Raptors on Wednesday and 19 on Sunday. He probably would've been over 20 on Sunday, but the Kings were winning by 30 midway through the 3rd quarter. In fact Tyreke came up 1 rebound short of another triple double, but took most of the 2nd half off to rest up.
I guess it just means that Jonny needs some work before he becomes a star in the league. Oh and I think that Donte is probably that perfect 6th or 7th guy, but with the Kings they don't have anyone better at the SF spot so he gets a lot of minutes.

Yeah, Flynn is a good to very good rookie
and Greene has just started to develop into a 10 point a game guy in his second year. It was obvious Greene was not ready for the pros last year, but he is coming along. Thought for sure he would be in the NBA gutter after 3 years.
Go Orange(men)!
I went to a Hawks-Timberwolves game earlier this year
And Jonny really looked pretty good. He put up decent numbers, and we even saw a flash of the Jonny Flynn Smile when the Hawks tried to (unsuccessfully) trap him along the half-court line. They did sit him for a lot of the fourth quarter when the Wolves were trying to catch-up, though. Couldn’t figure out why; the backup point guard certainly didn’t look better.
Unfortunately, his team and coach are both pretty horrendous. I’m pretty sure he would look like an even better rookie were he on a team that wasn’t the Timberwolves.
Other people look, Andy Rautins can SEE.
yeah.. i see nothing in their coach to think this team is going anywhere anytime soon..
no matter if they get rubio or not..

Problem is..
Rambis has got them running the triangle offense, which works if your Phil Jackson and your coaching the bulls or lakers. I feel like flynn would have a lot more assists if they weren’t running it.
