No, I’m just disappointed
****ing what?
In all seriousness Flynn could do very well in the NBL. No need to pass.

I'd be shocked if he didn't do well. It is the NBL after all
Interesting...going from the 6th pick overall to the NBL within 5 years..superstar

His lack of Height and inability to develop a mid/outside game caused him to absolutly Flop in the NBA
However he;'s suddenly the most athletic player in the NBA and will be able to attack the rim at will, Me think's he'll absolutly tear the throats out of some of the domestic guards

In defense of Flynn he was a rookie point guard on one of the worst NBA squads in the last ten years with a coach who couldn't find his arse with two hands and a flashlight implementing a system to which he had none of the requisite playing talent. I cannot think of a single rookie so ****ed over before he played a minute in the A.
The case against is that played on a college team with a statistically flattering system; when he got to the league he played like he was still in high school.

He'll come over here to get his numbers up for another shot at the big time.
Expect him to have 40% - 50% of team shot attempts for the rest of his stay.
Otherwise good for the league promotion wise I guess..

Biggest name to play in the NBL since Stephen Jackson?

he wont kill it, his similar to mills, his barley 6ft doesnt have a great outside game but is explosive can play the passing lanes, but most teams have American point guard imports as well im just annoyed he wont be a free agent in 2k13 and why the hell did he sign with tigers when he could of played in china and earned big bucks he wont last the season wont be surprised if he returned back to the NBA
Has the Chinese season started yet?
Weren't there issues with players wanting to come to the NBA and not being let go from their Chinese clubs til their season finished?
Much safer to play in OZ and then go back when an NBA team wants you.
Good luck Jonny Flynn.

He likes too. Whether he can is an open question.
Career 40% from the field, 34% from 3
Here's a quiz. Two stat lines from rookie PG's to debut in the last decade.
Player A
GP GS MIN FGM-A FG% 3PM-A 3P% FTM-A FT% OR DR REB AST BLK STL PF TO pts
81 81 28.9 4.9-11.8 .417 1.0-2.7 .358 2.8-3.3 .826 0.3 2.1 2.4 4.4 0.0 1.0 1.2 2.9 13.5
Player B
GP GS MIN FGM-A FG% 3PM-A 3P% FTM-A FT% OR DR REB AST BLK STL PF TO pts
80 47 28.8 4.2-10.1 .421 1.1-2.7 .416 1.2-1.7 .704 0.4 2.0 2.4 4.5 0.2 0.8 2.9 1.8 10.8
Player A is Jonny Flynn's debut season in Minnesota. Who is Player B?
Rose? Westbrook?

It's Deron Williams.
Flynn was a reach at 6, but him bombing out of the A was as much to do with the wolves as anything.

LeBron a rookie PG?
Tony Parker?
hmmm.. I cheated and just googled the statline.
Deron Williams. Poor old Jonny didn't get a chance to do much after that.

Anyone know where I can get a Flynn jersey? Would be pretty cool go get one i'd say.
I'd say wait a week or so and then look at the tigers online merch or if you go to a game they may have some. But I would guess they may not have any yet. I could be wrong though.
