This guy impresses me more and more.

[Flight]

I love this guy already haha

[TheDude]

he seems to have that winning attitude...as if he just PLANS on being good and there is no other alternative...at the same time seems humble...he seems to have that IT factor.

[DrReality]

Made me think of a young Gary Payton.

[ATLNY7]

He could be a Chris Paul type player

[jy23]

yeah he definately seems like a humble guy, but he also seems like he has that drive to be the best. I hope that translates on the court!

[MrNique]

That dunk when Eric Snow is talking is AWESOME. I love guards that can throw down.

I know that I (we) are probably just being hopeful but he sure does seem to have that "IT" factor.

Agreed. I was high on Flynn before the draft because of the "it" factor, but that was more of a pipedream than anything. Teague could be THE steal of the draft though. He looks like a MUCH better passing PG than I originally thought. But his main thing is his ability to score the ball. The guy is simply a blur and can jump out of the gym. When you add a nice shooting stroke and his staple of a floater to that mix, you get a guy who will make an impact sooner rather than later in this league. No wonder he was so high on the Hawks' list of prospects. I thought they were lying at first when they said that, but it appears that he was the guy they targeted all along and they nailed it.
