One more team for us to deal with in the East. They won't get a ring but adding Josh Smith, Billups and Jennings to Drummond and Monroe (Hoyas!) makes them pretty tough

That is one crappy outside shooting team.

Am I the only one who would prefer Brandon Knight to Jennings straight up?

Jennings is a sixth man type. He can't play point and can't run a team. Knight showed promise at 2 guard. Plus J Smoove is a major shooting liability at the 3. If he isn't playing PF, yikes. I still think they are a lotto team unless they make strides defensively. At best they can do what Milwaukee did last year.

i agree that there will be many trades in brandon jennings' future.
knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

Jennings really is not good. Piston's may get a lower seed at very best.

8mm per is about right. Might be too high.

Lin gets paid more.

Funny!

If Jennings was in NY you would have his Jersey.

This guy can run a team and lead it, watch what he does in Detroit.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

Are we talking about the same Jennings that has yet to average double digit assists and averages less than 40% FG!!??!

I think it's a nice trade for Detroit. They got him at a fair price and dumped some contracts on Milwaukee.

What if Knight was in NY? How many hypothetical jerseys can one man own?!

Milwaukee was trying hard to find a Jennings substitute all summer, even after losing Ellis. Teague would have been a good signing for them, but I think they got a very nice piece in Knight. I look at Jennings and see a poor-man's Marbury, headcase and all.

Will Jennings and josh Smith be Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanova reborn? I like their young front court, but I wonder if they'll get drowned out by Smith and Jennings chucking.

Yeah, Jennings is a PG chucker. I'd stay far away from him.

He can run a team about as well as Jamal Crawford can. Smith is the guy that can elevate that team but only if he's focused and consistent.

The guys on Around the Horn were calling this a playoff team. Why do we pay these Analysts so much attention when they seemingly know no more about the sport than most of us
the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

It's all entertainment. Plus, some of those guys aren't half bad. It's not like skip and SAS. At least the guys on ATH pull up some stats occasionally lol...

Who's Detroit's coach anyway?

Jennings is awful. Has no feel for the PG position. Can't shoot. Can't get to the rim. What does he do well?
