The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that Jonny Flynn is off crutches and able to workout in a pool.
The Breakdown
Flynn was expected to be out until late November, so he this appears to be a sign he'll be back a bit earlier than expected. More than anything, this could hurt the value of Luke Ridnour as we expected to get a good month of starts out of him until Flynn returned. Keep an eye on Flynn's recovery as your draft approaches.

Byron Scott Wants Mo Williams to be More of a Playmaker
The Akron Beacon Journal reports that Cleveland Cavaliers coach Byron Scott wants Mo Williams to play more like he did with the Milwaukee Bucks by controlling the ball and initiating the offense.
The Breakdown
Scott basically wants Williams to play more like a point guard. In his years alongside LeBron James, it was LeBron who was doing most of the ballhandling and the offense went through him. Williams was basically a spot up shooter with LeBron around. If Williams can play more like a scoring point guard, as he had in the past, he could have a great season. His scoring is likely to jump a bit with the absence of LeBron, but what could make a huge jump are his assist numbers if he does indeed orchestrate the offense.
We really like Mo Williams entering the season because he's on a team that needs his offense. With the possible exception of Antawn Jamison, no one else on the Cavaliers roster can carry the scoring load. They need Williams to be explosive offensively and that appears to be his more natural style of play. Williams has a great chance of outperforming his average draft position if you're able to get him with a pick in the 50s or later.

Suns Reacquire Dwayne Jones
The Phoenix Suns have signed Dwayne Jones. Terms of the deal were undisclosed. Jones was part of the trade that brought Hedo Turkoglu to the desert. Jones was later released by the Raptors, allowing Phoenix to sign him.
The Breakdown
Jones doesn't figure to see much, if any, playing time. He'll be at the end of the bench or inactive for much of the season, with a possibility he'll be sent down to the D-League. He's not on our fantasy radar.

Support The V-Movement
Two things in life that we can't get back are time and our virginity!!! While we can't control time, we can control when we give away our innocence. Veronica Smith of the V-Movement organization is promoting abstinence in young girls. As a 27 year old virgin, she lets them know that although it can be difficult, it can be done. Check her out on Fox13.

Takers Takes The #1 Spot
Okay... if you didn't go see Takers this weekend, you most def need to be at the theaters SOON!! The movie was absolutely the bizness, and the fact that they gave you nothing BUT yumminess to look at throughout the whole thing just added to enjoyment. Idris Elba, O-M-G... I don't think I can come up with words to express how FINE that man is, and the accent just adds to his sex appeal. There is one scene in particular (you'll know when you see it) that caused me to SCREAM (literally scream) out in the theater like a maniac ROFL!!
Anywho, the movie beat out it's competition and came in as the #1 movie for the first weekend. T.I. mentioned to BET that they are already in talks of a prequel to the movie to tell the background of each character. That should be HOT!! Congrats to the cast and crew. This will MOST def be in my movie collection when it goes to DVD, gotta have it!!!
