If I look at the draft board on nba.com, it says (traded to Timberwolves). We all have talked about Roy and Curry a million times...might as well add Parsons as well.


I do every time lol. My main disappointments in the past drafts were passing on Curry, Cousins and Parsons. I can't say that I was sure about Paul George and some of the others, but those three I was sure on. All three were in our hands too. Great job, Wolves.

Edit: I was also sure of Lawson being a productive point guard in the league, but that one doesn't hurt as much if we had drafted Rubio/Curry instead of Rubio/Flynn.


I am pretty tired of this Curry stuff. The guy is a great shooter, but nobody knew how he would fair in the NBA. We got Flynn because SAC wanted him and James Johnson for Tyreke (who everyone had ahead of Curry on their boards). Where would Curry have played once we got Rubio over here? If we wanted Curry, we should have taken him in place of Rubio, and once again I don't remember anyone suggesting that.

Curry was coming out of a small college, and was anything but a sure thing. Flynn had a very good rookie season playing in the triangle offense for a moron, and minus the injury could have been every bit as good and possibly even better than Curry or Lawson. Curry is not a good defender, has chronic ankle issues and is extremely frail. He also told the wolves he didn't want to play for them, which means he wouldn't be on the team right now. GS has Curry, Bogut, Iggy, Lee, and Thompson as their starting five, and have been pretty healthy this season, but still sit at the bottom end of the PO picture.

I wouldn't go so far as to say Flynn would have been as good or better than Curry, but I do believe without the injury he would have been a great sixth man for this team!
