Any interest in Brandon Jennings?

If the Pistons get I. Thomas, it looks like Brandon Jennings will be available and only is under contract for 2 seasons. He's a definite upgrade over Nash, any interest?

He plays the game the wrong way but he has the tools to be a good player.

Jennings + asset for Nash if the lakers have already given up any chance at cap in 2015 by signing someone this summer.

Maybe Kobe could give him his mean stare and scare him into only letting him do the chucking. :lol:

He played well before Mo Cheeks was fired but that could just be a coincidence since Mo Cheeks was terrible at everything else.

As far as this asset... what are we talking about? 1st round pick? 2nd round pick? Future considerations? LOL

It would have to be two first round picks and I'm not even exaggerating.

I can't say I fault you for feeling that way but that's too steep... People on the Detroit board seem to think the Lakers would take him without Nash's contract for 2nd round picks. :lol: :wink:

Okay I've softened my stance to a first rounder(non lottery protected) and a prospect. The thing with Jennings is that he's great if you don't give a **** about your season, but we don't even have a pick next year so what's the point in tanking?

He's just good enough or just bad enough at tanking depending how you look at it.

The Pistons were trying to save their Top 8 protected lottery pick and he wasn't able to tank bad enough. :banghead:
