What rookie PG matchups are you most looking forward to? 

Post#1 » by Dan's with the Wolves » Sun Jul 26, 2009 8:49 pm

Since this draft was dominated by the quantity of Point Guards drafted, which head to head matchups are you most looking forward to?

First of all Rubio vs Flynn in practice. Who will win the starting job? Who will win the closing job? It might not be the same?

Rubio vs Jennings - A chance to settle Jenning's hype comments
Flynn vs Jennings - which is the better overall point guard. Who's the better defender?

Actually, I'm looking forward to all of the rookie PG matchups as they go up against Rubio/Flynn. The Wolves had their choice of any (except Evans?) and took Rubio/Flynn. It will be fun to watch to see if Kahn and company got it right.

Yeah Jennings vs. Rubio/Flynn will be fun to watch, especially when flynn or rubio burns jennings and jennings throws a tantrum like a 14 year old hitting puberty, he is always fun to see fail...

Otherwise if Evans is playing PG it will be interesting to see how we choose to match up with him. I just hope it gets to the point where we can watch Evans vs. Flynn/Rubio and not just Evans vs. Flynn.

Flynn - Evans if he plays PG

otherwise I'll have to go with Flynn - Ty Lawson.

I don't mind about Jennings he'll never be successful.

Jennings will be VERY interesting. Lawson will be fine, but just does not have the high end potential to WOW us at the end of the day.

Flynn vs Curry to quiet the critics (or inflame them) on the draft pick.
