I never understood why Flynn was cast aside so quickly so frequently. Attitude thing, maybe? How about AJ Price? I know he's not super popular (on this board anyway), but he did some nice things in limited roles when he was here. Not the worst 3rd option out there.


Flynn had a severe hip injury and required surgery. After coming back, he had no lateral quickness and lost almost all his foot speed. For a PG that was known for playing quick, he simply couldn't play anymore.


Any word as to whether or to what degree he has recovered from the hip injury?


I assume not very well, as he's been forced to play in Australia to keep the career going.

I'm thrilled about the signing. Not because I'm some massive CJW fan, but I don't have to watch DJ Augustin play basketball now. This makes me very happy, as I thought he was horrendous.

Love the signing. He was my #2 option for the backup role. Well, realistically he was #1 but I had hoped of a pipedream where Jack was available to us.
