Reggie is probably worth Rose and a future first lottery protected. But if his whole team called him out that makes me wary.

He'll be a good get to some, but his rep as a pouter may not endear him to the hostilities of the current New York fanbase.
Plus, he's getting pissed off cause all he wants to do is pick and roll.

Out of all the players on the Knicks....Why Brandon Jennings? When he is on the floor, he at least gives effort and plays hard. Hes done a pretty serviceable job as a backup PG

Because hes not a good basketball player. Awful defender. He does try on defense and you see him constantly gambling for steals, but just because you try doesnt mean you are a good defender. Cant score around the rim, below average 3pt shooter. Another issue I have with him is his personality. Always throwing his hands up on defense and acting its not his fault and constantly looking to blame others. All bark no bite. Incredibly fake tough guy, thats why he always goes after no name scrubs and never mans up against the legit starters on other teams. Ive never liked him even when he was on other teams, so this isnt something new just because hes on the knicks.
Hes just too 1 dimensional, like Rose. Jennings is only good at 1 thing and thats being a playmaker. But he tends to over dribble and at times looks for the selfish assist instead of making the right play/pass and possibly get a hockey assist.
Unless you are a 3 point specialist, im against have players on the team who are 1 dimensional.

I still have hope for Ennings, gotta fix that jumper though, get it to decent level at least. Knicks can re-sign him real cheap.

His jumper is what it is. Too late in the game to fix it.

Re: Brandon Jennings
The easiest player to pawn off is backup point guard Brandon Jennings, with a $5 million expiring contract. He was a mysterious late scratch Wednesday with Achilles soreness after which he made his Twitter account private, deleted Knicks from his bio before flying off to Los Angeles. One Knick said afterward the scratch was a surprise. With the team’s surplus of centers, sources indicated Kyle O’Quinn could be another pawn.

Re: Brandon Jennings
Imagine you were an excited player, on a new team with a former scoring champ, defensive player of the year and MVP. The injuries were behind them, you signed on to a team you've always wanted to play for, training camp starts, you look around, confident, and think "****, we might be able to give the east a run for it's money, let's do this!"
Then this **** season happens, and the players you thought were something while looking at them from afar are not everything they were hyped up to be. You get injured, losses are piling, you are playing ****, and all the positivity from fans in the beginning has turned into venom.
I would delete my social media accounts and go into hiding too. That's all this is, and I don't blame him. This must really suck, because he really thought they would be pretty successful, this isn't even close. I bet Lee feels the same way.

Not that it matters, but there were MIN fans who were happy to trade Rubio for Jackson straight up. All of them wanted nothing to do with DRose.
Fans everywhere know the deal

For a backup /spot starter he's more than fine. Knicks should take advantage he's gonna be cheap.

Agreed. Jennings has his flaws, but he's far from the biggest problem with this team. You don't trade him just to trade him. If we can get something of decent value for him, then fine, but otherwise you're better off just letting him expire and see what kind of money he's looking for in the off-season. The guy actually wants to be here, and we will still need help at the point guard position.

Re: Brandon Jennings
Hey, drop the Reggie Jackson to NY. Don't want.
He was a headache in OKC, with a great team and now again with a very good coach.
If we're going into the lottery for a young guard, the last thing we want is a malcontent.
Jennings appears to be on the block though.
