    Take heart guys. The Jazz are showing you how it's actually possible to quickly reload by taking advantage of New Jersey's impatience and stupidity.

    And he also has the nerve to try all his different moves; he isn't limiting himself. I think he actually wants to not just be a rotation player, but he wants to be a great player. Don't know if he ever will be, but I like it that he's trying to be.

    I think Flynn is capable of being an NBA starter; he has the change of speed and body control, and he's starting to go for the rim more (Blazers need to show near the basket for him, he is always ready to dish off). And of course the great vision. However, he is not ready right now to be a starter or even a backup on a contending team. He needs to do a lot of work on his shooting and he needs a lot of playing time; his best option would be to find a place with a non-contending team that is on a total rebuild, where he could play at least 20 minutes every night.

    Smith is not a PG; he did show tonight that when he is playing with a good distributor (Flynn) that he can be decent at SG.
