Brandon Jennings

[rmfc]

Jennings is a cancer. A moron. Actually an egotistical moron. Even worse he's an egotistical moron that sucks. 4 seasons in the league and he's only shot over 40% once. That sucks. The last time we took a player the Bucks thought was too crappy to bring back we ended up with DNP-CV. He sucks. His contract sucks. Brandon Jennings sucks. This idea sucks. Burn this idea. Burn it with fire. Fire from the fieriest pits of hell. Dump the ashes off this idea in a bowl of acid. Seal that bowl. Seal it tight. Dump the bowl in a tub of acid. Stronger acid. Seal the tub. Seal it tight. Put the tub in a tank of acid. The strongest acid. Seal it tight. Put that tank full of acid, tub of acid and bowl of acid filled with stupid in a rocket. The fastest rocket. Fire that rocket into the sun.

That anger....

^If the Pistons truly believe Knight can still be a PG, they should hire Byron Scott as the next coach. His track record with PGs is undeniable - Kidd, Paul, and Irving.

The fact that they seem to have no interest in Scott at all, speaks to how little faith they have in Knight ever developing into a star PG, to me. Because if they thought he had star potential at that position, they would searching for a coach specifically to develop him. Instead they are searching for PGs to replace him in the draft, and a coach specifically to fit with Dre/Moose.

I don't think they've given up on him completely, but his development doesn't appear to be a major concern of theirs, which is why I think he could be traded at any moment for the right deal.

WTF does Byron Scott have to do with either of those PGs other than having the privilege to coach them? Those were elite level PGs on their own, #2, 4, and 1 picks. You make the most ridiculous parallels sometimes. You hate the idea of Nate McMillan as coach, but for the sake of developing Brandon freaking Knight they should hire Byron Scott? You do realize its much more efficient to bring in a better option as head coach and then bring in a vet mentor and run a system that helps cater to some of his strengths right? Hell, you can try to bring in guys like Rod Strickland or Sam Cassell to help with player development.

lol, you need to go back to school and learn how to read or something.

I never said I wanted to hire Byron Scott because of Knight. You are insane. Feel free to put me on ignore if my comments get you this upset. Maybe try some anger management classes while back at school learning how to read.

Hey genius, deflecting and going with the "put me on ignore" bs won't work, because its YOU that CAN'T read. I never said YOU wanted them to hire Byron Scott. I said you said FOR THE SAKE OF BRANDON KNIGHT they SHOULD hire him, and that is in fact what you said. How bad is YOUR reading comprehension?

Then you throw in Kidd, CP3 and Irving to try to make your idea sound more credible when in fact its pretty stupid given the fact its not much difference in hiring Nate which is a move you're staunchly against. FYI, I routinely scroll past many of your posts so no need to give me the "put me on ignore" garbage. You just post so frequently, unfortunately reading your posts is a necessity to follow the chain of convo.

Half this forum was obsessed with Josh Smith for us but everyone hates Brandon Jennings for us.

wow

Jennings is intriguing

I want to make this my sig lol

I'd pass on Jennings, He is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY better than Knight, whoever is even comparing them is completely delusional and it's not even funny.

With that said, there is a reason why Milwaukee is not so excited about bringing Jennings back. They tried to extend him and he asked way too much money. He does have a huge ego and attitude issues, he is extremely inefficient and is a me first player.

In a league with so much talent at the PG position I would not throw a lot of money on Jennings, there are way better options out there who would fit our team better.

I don't think anyone in their right mind think Knight is a better PG than jennings now, but where do you see knights future then?
I know you're not a fan of his, but his potential is undeniable IMO.

Do you see him as part of this teams future??

[Pharaoh]

Forget Jennings and forget about Knight as a starting PG

Bazz at #8, a PG at #13... Knight becomes the 6th Man of the future... a guy with all the intangibles but not the skill set to really lead the team from the PG position.

I can see Knight being a calming presence on our 2nd unit... someone that will sacrifice his own stats and ego for the good of the team... a team that will be built around our big men

Drummond + Monroe is where it's at... spending copious amounts of money on a "me first" PG with a questionable attitude is not smart, regardless of how much talent he may or may not have.

Do we need a better PG? Of course we do. Is Jennings the right man for the job? I say no

You're a F'ing idiot. If you knew how to read, you would know I wasn't suggesting that's what the Pistons should do. I was playing devil's advocate presenting both sides of the argument to how committed the Pistons are to Knight.

I honestly don't give a **** if you read my posts or not. You're an annoying troll that doesn't deserve the attention I'm giving you right now, and you're clueless if you think I give a **** about your opinion.

[Sheedpocalypse]

I would instantly sign a guy like OJ Mayo before even taking a look at Jennings...

This

@Pharoah I think we need to give Knight one more season (or at least half a season) before we give up on him as a starting PG. He had a good rookie year but really struggled last season due to playing through numerous injuries and playing out of position. Given his work ethic and potential that's he shown I think's fair to give him another chance to make the PG position his.

[vege]

but where do you see knights future then?

Same thing I've always said about Knight. He is at his best a Jason Terry 2.0. Right now he is a Jason Terry lite very lite.

If I see him as part of this team's future? Probably not. We need a PG and a SG desperately and we'll try to fill one of those 2 roles with Knight and he will continue to fail miserably. If we move him to a combo guard of the bench role he could be valuable for us.

Terry was the 3rd best player on a CHAMPIONSHIP team (you could make an argument he was the 2nd), developed properly and in the right role, playing to his strengths Knight could have a similar impact.

Mate, I'm a supporter of Knight... I want to draft Bazz at #8 and do the Dallas deal for Marion and #13 so we can draft MCW or some other big-ish PG

This benefits Knight immensely! He'll have more options to pass to on the perimeter instead of junk while he'd also have someone else on the team that could help run the offense!

I don't think Knight should have to shoulder the load of being the #1 perimeter scorer, the #1 perimeter shooter AND the dude that runs the offense!

We need to give him some help on the perimeter... and I think this Draft is full of players that would compliment him

I see Knight as an extremely important member of this team moving forward. He's tough, he's a leader, he's a smart and well spoken individual. Those qualities in addition to his skills = must keep player IMO

[DCintheD]

it'd be fun to have Jennings at the right price... aaaandd I 100% agree with Jodi... BK's got that Piston it-factor going on.. cant give up on the young fella... he will have a huge role on this team once it reaches contention again.. however, that role is not quite defined yet

But that's the thing, Jennings won't BE available at the right price...

[The Penguin]

Jennings is a 23 year old pg with 4 years of nba experience and proven he can be a starting pg on a team that makes the playoffs. If he were in this years draft it's very likely he'd be the 2nd player picked, surely top 7. You'd have to pay the daft pick $3-5 mil, signing Jennings basically represents buying a lotto pick for ~$20 mil. There's risk involved and hopefully Jennings understands and considers that, but I'd take Jennings over any other pg in this draft and think we have some money to spend.

[Sort]

I can't see Jennings not getting overpaid and that team not lamenting it. He's a shot chucker who doesn't defend. He's got some intangibles to his credit, but he's a one who doesn't make his teammates better. Is he willing to be Jason Terry? He's got a role in this league, but his ego may not recognize it.

Speaking of anger problems.....

You have an issue debating without name calling. If you had any modicum of brains you'd realize I'm accusing you of exactly what you say you're doing. Just because you're playing devil's advocate don't make it a good idea. How is hiring Scott any better than hiring McMillan? Nevermind, flame away, continue to be childish and call names. You take this board and yourself too seriously. Especially since that abortion of a forum you created flopped.
