lol prior to this game, Flynn had 98 points on the whole season.

Is this the worst player ever to score 50? He's definitely worse than guys like Ross and Corey Brewer.

He would probably have a good career in Europe like Mike James. Another one of those guys who does the best when the ball is in his hands as the go to scorer but he’s not efficient enough at the NBA level to have that role.

People always bring up Tracy Murray, but Murray had a decently long career and lasted in the NBA until the age of 32. I think most people would be shocked if Flynn survived in the NBA until 30, but this 50 point game could be the turning point for him.

The most random 50 piece ever. Hard to beat that swan song as he plays out the last games of his NBA career. Happy for him though.

Johntay Porter beating himself up right now for not prop betting on Flynn.

The prop bet for him to score over 20 was probably 1000% alone.

His D sucks and he couldn't and not many teams would ever have allowed him to be a primary chucker to even have this opp.

Good for him for having a night when his career was on the rocks. Otherwise who cares?
Think you're taking a tongue-in-cheek thread a bit too serious tbh.

I would have to imagine he is by far the worst player to even score 50 points in an NBA game. He also did it on only 25 shots. :crazy:

He may get a few more years in the NBA based on his performance in this one game

I bet he went off in our practice games but then had no confidence in real games

LOL! Too soon? Should have let him go years ago.

People here have some real deep seated FOMO issues.

Yeah, he would have been kicked to the curb much earlier on any other team. The 3+ years he got here was more than enough opportunity, he just never capitalized on it. He was having by far his best year this season even before this 50 point explosion but it was still far below average. This 50 piece might have saved him for one last opportunity because it looked like he was heading to Europe before this.
