Athleticism
Jennings
Flynn
Rubio
Honestly I can't even give Brandon Jennings a clear advantage in athleticism. Jonny Flynn is stronger in both the upper and lower body while being in the same class as Jennings in terms of speed and quickness.

you just proved yourself to be an idiot. only 3 players in college ball this year are averaging 25+ ppg, and none of them play for a school in a power conference like Arizona.
who cares what he would average? Derrick Rose averaged 15 ppg, Michael Beasley averaged 26 ppg. which one would you take?
ppg has nothing to do with who is the better player

Speed and quickness I'd say they're the same. Jennings just has the advantage in leaping ability, so I give it to him.

Defense - Rubio is last???
Come on dude, defense is arguably the best part of Rubio's game. As a 16 year old he was averaging 3.2 steals per game in only 18 minutes of play.
Rubio's handles are better than Jenning as well, he took him off the dribble with pretty much one hand easily in the few minutes they were against each and other and then forced Jennings into a few turnovers.

Normally his single season scoring record would be impressive but the weakness of Oakhill's guard lineup last season takes away from that feat.

Other than that, looks pretty good.
You could switch Rubio/Jennings on defense. Either way I wouldn't say you were wrong. I'd put Jennings handles above Rubio. But something like decision making Rubio would have the advantage in. As in Jennings handles are better but Jennings has the potential to be turnover prone, whereas Rubio will make better decisions and have limited turnovers.

you dont understand you have never watched Jennings then this dude in a college would seriously average like
30pts 8assist like a stephen curry type of volume shooter.
Jennings really should have played NCAA found a way to play get his grades up
he has a heck of an experience in italy for a million
but this guy would be torching college players honestly right now.

I've watched a lot of Jennings and believe me, I'm impressed. He's going to be a star in the league.
But saying he would average 30/8 is bull****. Does he have the capability of averaging 30 a game in college? Possibly, if he jacked up enough shots. Beasley and Mayo could have last year if they had jacked up enough shots.
This thread wasn't intended to put down Rubio and Jennings. I believe both have all-star futures ahead of them. But give me Flynn.
