MIL / TOR 

Post#1 » by Jim Todd Jr. » Fri May 20, 2011 12:43 am

Jennings for the #5 pick.

Seemed as though Jennings had a rough year. Maybe him and Skiles dont mesh incredibly well. If Mil likes either Knight or Walker better then him, and they are available at #5, might work out well. Tor pairs Jennings with Derozan for the Cali backcourt and Jennings could sparkle in TO.

I don't like Walker/Knight or any of the Euros more then Jennings so I'd say no but I'm guessing you could find people who would say yes.

Hell **** no from Toronto! Jennings is a terrible chucker who is hot trash, The guy just likes to play for himself and is no damn PG. He's undersized SG who would make us play DeRozan out of position.

Anybody who is rumored/mocked at #5 are better fits then Jennings!

That's a little harsh. The kid has talent, and he's still young. He also really didn't have any help in the ball handling / creating department. Pair him with a solid 2 guard and put more around him and I think his efficiency improves a good deal.

Toronto wouldn't take on Jennings here in the 1st place we would have Calderon/Jennings/Bayless all at the point and that would be bad. Bayless deserves mins and so does Calderon (with his salary) so why does Toronto trade their pick for a guy who under preformed last year and is a bad fit? The guy is a shoot first pass 2nd guy he reminds me a better more athletic Lou Williams.

Say the 76ers had #5 would you move it for Jennings when you have Iggy/Turner as your SG. If so then I will gladly give you #5 and Klazia for Teague.

All I said is that you were being a bit harsh on your assessment of Jennings. I didn't say you should trade for him...The reason we don't need Jennings is Jrue Holiday. If we didn't have a PG I'd be happy to have him.

And clearly I couldn't make that deal you proposed, as Teague is on the Hawks.

I'd pass for the Raps. Bayless looked better for us when given the opportunity to start, and at 5 I'd much rather have Kanter/Biyombo/Knight, or perhaps try dealing the pick for a young SF.

So Jennings value is what a little lowered than it was when he was drafted? I figure that if the Clippers for about 12m sold their first round pick that was to be the 8th or so overall pick, the Bucks would be willing to trade Jennings for somewhere in the range of 15-20m in savings correct?

Sorry BringBackKorver, meant Jrue not Teague, yeah I don't think Jennings has value for Toronto for a #5 swap unless were dumping Jose that would be the only thing.

We don't have a strong defensive minded PG to play with Jennings and DeRozan is not a 3 so that would be a bad idea. Jennings isn't a PG he has playmaking ability but his assist to turnover ratio is very suspect. I would rather have Bayless/Calderon at the PG and whoever we draft at #5 going forward.

First off, Jennings is a talent. Hes had some amazing games. If this had been proposed after his rookie year, Bucks fans wouldve probably laughed it off. He was injured, and is in a terrible system for what he does.

Toronto is close to a perfect fit for him. He can run, he can have the ball, he can make a couple mistakes, and I think he would bring out the best in Demar.



What about

#5
Bargnani
Bayless

Jennings
Bogut

Yeah I figured it out, just had to get my shot in :)

I think that's fair. Jennings is going to take a specific tandem at the 2-3 to optimize his talent, and you guys don't have it. If we didn't have Jrue, I think Jennings would go great with a guy like Iguodala. He just needs some help to take the pressure off so he doesn't get forced into too many bonehead plays.

I really like Bayless, and I think I'm one of the only Calderon fans left alive, so I agree that you guys need to do something with #5 that will fit better. I've been picturing Vesely making it to 5 and you guys rolling him out there with Davis and Bargnani to make a giant goofy front court.

Easy no, and that's not really a shot at Jennings. I don't like him, but I'm sure he can be pretty good. I'd just rather roll the dice on several others at 5.

And how is that? His 49.3 TS% is flat out alarming, and his 25.84% assist rate is worse than both Calderon (76.65%) and Bayless (36%). At this point, all that Brandon has going for him is solid D, that 55-point game in his rookie year, and his high-volume low-efficiency stats. He's still young, and he had some injury trouble this year, so he still has a chance to improve somewhat ... but there's absolutely nothing to suggest that he's some sort of significant upgrade over those two now (the pick is still an unknown quantity at this point).
