Flip repped the Sonics well in the Rookie/Sophomore game scoring 25 and getting 10 assists, it was nice to see him drain threes to contrast all the dunks. Hopefully Shard and Ray do just as good in the 3pt and ASG.
Great game from Ron, showing that he does have the skills to succeed in this league, even if he has been quiet of late. Great way to start reppin' Seattle this weekend, now let's hope it rubs off on Rashard and Ray

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The plane was late and Ronald "Flip" Murray was the last player on the floor for yesterday morning's practice. Just as he walked out, Michael Cooper, his coach in the NBA's Rookie Challenge Game, offered $1,000 to anyone who could make a shot from half court. "To tell you the truth, I didn't think I'd have to pay anybody," said Cooper, whose Sophomores beat the Rookies last night, 142-118. "We have all these big guys, and big guys don't shoot half-court shots. "So who would make it? The guy who comes in late. He hadn't even warmed up." Murray's day barely had begun and already he was ahead $1,000. "I got in about a half-hour late, but my first shot of the day was that one," Murray said. Cooper, however, said that because Murray was late for practice. He was fining Flip exactly $1,000. </div> <font size="1">Full Story courtesy of the Seattle Times</font>
Flip is a great scorer who still needs work on defense...I hope Seattle continues to have faith in him because he could easily become a nice offensive player...
he was off the hook...lol he put the ball on hinirich's back...like street ball and he went between the legs of this guy..and a crossover...he was just crazy.
Flip was sick in last nights game. He had some crazy highlights, and if it wasn't for Amare Stoudemire, Murray would have won MVP.
Murray definitely showed some sweet handles while gettin to the rack. It's like as though he's an And1 player, with all the streetball moves that he was showcasing during the game. He was simply amazing in the game, and would have won the MVP of the game if not for Amare.
The only thing really stopping him from being a point guard is his scorer's mentality - her certainly has the ball handling and passing to run an offense, but he doesn't have the mindset. A bit like Jason Terry, but not quite as accomplished.
