As a famous American basketball school, the Syracuse Orange Team is one of the NCAA's traditional strong teams. Most Chinese fans know and know Syracuse University, more because Syracuse University is the NBA Nuggets star Cameron. Anthony's alma mater.
The famous NBA draft of the 2003 NBA Draft is centered on two talented players, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. The former is a genius who has been in the US high school basketball for decades, and the latter is the leader of Syracuse University in NCAA The leaders who won the game, both were regarded by scouts as the cornerstone of the team.
Do not look back at the year with a future perspective. After all, during the college period, he led the team to win the NCAA championship and then entered the NBA to get a high-ranking star player. Indeed, there are not many in the history of the NBA.
As we all know, 2009 is the year of the defender. In this defender James Harden, Stephen Curry, Demar de Rozan, Ricky Rubio, Darren Collison, and Zhuo Ledi have all won in the future. Big contract, and the top two are NBA MVPs ...
It is no coincidence that Jonny Flynn, who is among the geniuses and who has advanced to the NBA as a leader.
乔 In this year's "never ending" Six Overtime War in the Eastern Conference, Jonny Flynn played a full 67 minutes and scored 34 points. He is the team's winning hero.
This bounce ability is very fast, and the player with extremely fast speed is generally scouted in the scouting report because of this game, he has been described as a strong and strong player with a big heart. Moreover, it is assessed that the jumper is still under development, and the physical ability of the strong point guard is outstanding, and the comprehensive athletic ability is an excellent backcourt player.
I was able to get such a scout report, but imagine that Jonny Flynn played quite well in the NCAA.
However, Jonny Flynn has a cliff-like career in the NBA. In the first year, his average of 13.5 points and 4.4 assists definitely matched his position. However, in the second year, due to injuries, the number fell to 5.3 points and 3.4 assists. By the third year, Flynn was almost out of play.
Investigating the reasons, what really restricted Jonny Flynn's height in the NBA was his 183 cm height. The NBA is not a precedent that was not played without height, such as Allen Iverson and Chris Paul.
But unlike Chris Paul and Allen Iverson, the jumper mentioned in the Flynn scout report did not really show up until the day he left the league.
As a player with a height of 183 cm, Flynn always loves to rush to the inside with a lot of grown-ups to show his bouncing. It is conceivable that waiting for him must be a tragedy.
A strong breakthrough ability does not mean a strong ending ability. Iverson and Paul's careers are more a combination of sudden shooting and passing, one inch long and one inch strong. The same principle applies in the NBA. Even if the physical talent of the great tortoise Wei Shao, the average finish rate of the basket is only about 50%.
Of course, another thing that made Flynn a tragedy in the NBA is that the team that chose him was the Timberwolves.
Looking at the history of the NBA for more than a decade, if you look at it from the perspective of Zhuge Liang afterwards, the Timberwolves are stupid, far above the other 29 teams.
So, if a team has been rotten for more than a decade, if it fails to make the playoffs, then this team still has its own reasons.
For example, in 2009, the Timberwolves didn't choose Stephen Curry. It was understandable. After all, Curry rejected their trial training, but they left a lot of excellent guards behind and chose Jonny one after another after choosing Rubio. Flynn, you must think this team is crazy.
In the first year, Jonny Flynn, who had obtained a good opportunity, could have the capital to survive in the league if he cultivated his shooting ability. However, the colossal coyotes would give up immediately after Rubio decided to come to the NBA. Jonny Flynn was injured the next year.
Perhaps many Curry fans have to thank the Minnesota Huskies (Timberwolves) for not choosing Curry, because unlike the "bad team" like Golden State at that time, the Timberwolves really rotted from beginning to end.
The impetuous management has made them impatient to train the high-quality rookies they have selected in those years, and has not allowed them to cherish their valuable draft picks.
To put it bluntly, in the NBA, without converting potential into talent, everything is a short check. After all, the NBA has a lot of injuries.
虽然 Although the success rate of the 2009 rookie is very high, Er Ha who is dead can ignore it. After all, Er Ha is crazy, even their own fans are afraid.
Uh ...
If Lin Yi and Blake Griffin are regarded by American scouts and fans as their rivals in the NCAA arena, then Jonny Flynn is Stephen Curry's biggest enemy in the NCAA arena.
The competition between the two lasted for a whole season. Jonny Flynn, who averaged nearly 18 points and 7 assists per game, was the super point guard on the NCAA field. He played "29 + 10" in the weaker Southern League. Stephen Curry is considered an epoch-making pitcher.
Stephen Curry currently ranks third in the ESPN Draft and Draft Draft. Slightly dominant, but Jonny Flynn, who also led the team to the sweet 16, also has an expected top six pick.
In terms of team strength, the Syracuse Orange Team is far above the Arizona Sun Devils. In addition to Jon Flynn, they also have Paul Harris, one of the top three scorers in the Eastern Conference. White inside Eric Devindorf and inside barrier Rick Jackson.
Although none of these people can enter the NBA except Jonny Flynn, they are also stars on the NCAA stage.
Like the Wildcats players themselves, they are a serious team with strong overall strength.
As for the NBA?
Treasure the stars who can play in the NBA! Every star who can play has at least hundreds of talents under his feet.
Why else are there so many NBA stories? Because the NBA, a league of superhumans, is the grave of countless basketball geniuses.
Even an ordinary role player, in his college days, he is also a star with great scenery!
Uh ...
"Lin, UU reading I must find a way to overpower Jonny ..." In the hotel where the Wildcats stayed, in the room of Stephen Curry and Lin Yi, the baby face suddenly said.
Lin Yi asked curiously why.
"New York also favors Jonny!" Stephen Curry clenched his fists.
Lin Yi understands that team battles can be lost, Flynn must die, oh no, team battles also have to win!
After all, Babyface's obsession with New York is not a day or two. Anyone who prevents him from going to New York is a big bad guy.
So Lin Yi found the Wildcats coach McLoop before the game and gave some tips of his own.
Actually, it is not difficult for Stephen Curry to beat Jonny Flynn. First of all, Stephen Curry cannot go against Flynn.
The NCAA in this period, and the NBA, are more conservative in tactical thinking. It is important to know that Stephen Curry will not have the opportunity to defeat the opposing point guard in the future, because basically the most defensive outside players to defend he.
And Curry won't hit the opposing point guard, he will choose to hit the opposing inside.
Misplaced one dozen is much better than mismatched one dozen.
Secondly, Stephen Curry wants to have good data, he must run up and convert, and he must have all assists.
The final is the pick-and-roll with Lin Yi, don't forget that Curry broke the NBA single-point record for that season, and he was given a pick-and-roll by Bogut ...
Bogut's pick-and-roll quality is not comparable to that of Pachulia, McGee, and Rooney.
Lin Yi will certainly not refuse to help Stephen Curry, because baby face also helped him a lot and sacrificed himself a lot.
易 Lin Yi cherishes this first friend he made since he came to the United States.
