Who do you see as the better player?

I see Jonny Flynn as the better player then Ricky Rubio after there career is over but I think Rubio will have great career no matter what but I just believe Flynn is better.

I go with Rubio.

Flynn is better right now but Rubio has the higher ceiling. If Rubio works hard he's gotta get a better player than Flynn, although I still think that Flynn will be great, too. Just my 2 cents.

I voted equal. I think Flynn is better now and there is less chance he will be a bust. Rubio could be a very special player but it will take time and he may turn out to be a bust. I also just love Flynn's attitude he seems like a great teammate!

Flynn could be dynamic but he could be Kyle Lowry. Rubio is 2 years younger but he is something special.

I agree but is 20 and some people say he is the closest thing to CP3 in this draft and if he lives up to that and I hope he does then I don't care if he is 2 years older then Rubio.

Also with Rubio some days I love him as player, some days I like him as player, some days I think he will never be great.

Rubio's just the more tantalizing prospect, with a more unique skillset, body-type, experience level...the NBA has never even seen a prospect like him to compare against. He's got bust potential, but he could be a gamechanger. Literally. Flynn could be good, but he's more developed than Rubio, but is not efficient enough to make his rather pedestrian skillset seem special. He's fast, but probably not the fastest, he's a good, but he's not a great, shooter. He's just bad defensively, he's a spotty decision-maker...there's enough to think that he'll be a good, solid NBA player. But Rubio's upside is too much for me to pass up.

That's crazier than Miroslav Satan or Coco Crisp.
