Johnny Flynn LMAO!

Anyone who watched college ball knew Curry was going to be a star.

Ankles, I get it, but he was worth the risk.

I can't imagine watching steph Curry shoot a basketball in combines and go
...meh gimme johnny flynn.

Cavaliers Interested In Trading For Jae Crowder

Would they trade Okoro for him?

Like Curry, poor dude had to carry the load for BYU.

Curry was never overly hyped up nationally for two years. And it's not like BYU is some kinda tiny school like Davidson.

You are misremembering. Curry was every bit as big as Jimmer

What about Harkless?

Not sure if OKC will release him.

But, they have 18 contracts.

Also, not sure Jeanie thinks he's worth using the 15 th spot, considering it will actually cost them 7 mil with luxury tax payments, even if you give him the minimum.

But, he fits.

Loved him with the Clippers.

I'm sure they'd likely at least consider it. Jeanie may have been dragging her feet on giving up draft picks, but she has never had a problem with spending cash to improve the team.

The only reason I could see for them to not at least strongly consider it if they got the chance, would be if they're leaving the 15th spot open to pick up an FA during the season.

My point was Curry was crazy.

Curry is the reason why other players get hyped up.

Curry was the first.

Nah, Curry was SUPERSTAR big, not even in the league yet.

First super hyped college kid? Uh....huh?

Because Davidson made a few runs with him

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Dropping dimes like he was, AT FUCKING DAVIDSON.

Yup…

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Def not all that but if we are comparing jimmer and curry....Curry was more hyped imo.

Lol DAVIDSON!

I don’t agree with that.

There were legit questions about Curry as an NBA player.

Most assumed he was going to at least be solid, but he didn’t have much experience playing point at high levels and his ability to guard his position was always in doubt.

He was great in college, but Jimmer like outcomes were always a possibility for Curry.

Jimmer was more hyped because of CURRY.

That has nothing to do with anything.

My point is Jimmer was a damn good CBB player that peaked in college. That's why I've called him Steve Alford (minus the title obviously). Both could shot the lights out in college. And both failed in the NBA.

 

[tlance]

They had back to back picks as I believe it was Washington gave them a top 10 pick for a bunch of deadwood

One of the most baffling moves that I can remember

@tlance help us out here?

I think it was Washington.

Can’t remember what they got back. Nothing good I am sure.

Steph was the first player to get hyped up? Not sure exactly what you mean.

Was it the hype coming from a smaller school, is that what you mean?

If so I agree with that. BYU isn't a big time program.

I will say this though. I've enjoyed Steph's one of kind career. He's changed the game like few other have. And I hope he (along with Klay & Dray) all finish their careers with GS.

Agreed.

However, Flynn wasn’t knocking doors down with his mechanics. Flynn was another dribble drive PG, that’s why Minnesota drafted TWO PGS in the lottery.

Talk about lacking the optimistic side of everything.
