The Syracuse Orange have been a lot of things in recent years - National Champions, Big East Champions, Sweet Sixteen attendees, etc. The one thing that they were last year that they weren’t the previous 3 or 4 years is boring…they were dreadfully boring for far too many stretches during games (and in crucial moments). Well, the future of Syracuse basketball has arrived in the form of Jonny Flynn (left) and Donte Green - two names that I’m sure all of you will know very well in about 3 years.

Flynn was fantastic the past two nights - on Monday he put on an offensive show, at one point scoring 9 points in a 60 second span. Tonight, he dribbled effectively in an out of a tough man to man defense to create plays and didn’t turn the ball over that much. He even hit the game winning 3 with 5 seconds left.

If there’s one thing these guys aren’t, it’s boring. Enjoy the season.
