KEYS TO THE GAME: Play like they got a team rolling out there with some accountability and pride. Could help to have a better home crowd on Saturday night facing the number one team from the East Central on the second of a back-to-back. They will need to work very well together to stop the Bucks from putting up points. The other obvious key will be to exploit the paint since Bogut is out. Marc Gasol's improved conditioning will have to be tested for this game.

Ridnour is also going to abuse Conley.

Jennings is just having some good days. rookie wall will come. loses will come. he is not even going to get the ROY. Conley will make his career-high in most of the stats.(tinsley too)
PS: i dont like the guy

dude Jennings has 20 tonight before halftime already ... and they're totally killing Bobcats. They're #1 in their division and playing withOUT their 2 highest paid players. their franchise players. they left Richard Jefferson go for nothing.

Jennings is possibly better than Lebrandon James.

I think he's the next big thing. if he don't hit that rookie wall you talk about... they could go to playoffs with a team full of 3rd rate players... and one complete prodigy.

As much as I like what Jennings has done so far this season, we have to make this guy earn his pts the hard way. We can allow him to start out the gates hot as hell. If he does, that can spell trouble for the Grizzlies.

I normally don't go on other boards and when I do I try to be respectful towards others (as I'd want in return). So here is my post. I am a Milwaukee Buck fan (and thank you for Warrick. Loved him since Syracuse days) and a huge Brandon Jennings fan. Just a word for you guys about Jennings. (And I am not touching the Jennings or Ridnour will outperform Conley..) Even if he doesn't start out hot shooting (and that isn't his priority) watch out for him. This kid has the ability and has proven it in numerous games that he can take our team on his back and single handedly score at will and win it. I'm not exaggerating nor looking at him through rose colored glasses. He'll hit the rookie wall (though he played professionally already so might not be as big a wall), but even his subpar performances thus far have been more than great for our team. I expect a good competitve game out of both squads and best of luck tomorrow.

I have to disagree with you SD. The Grizz don't have a prayer of shutting him down. In fact, their only hope is to let Jennings have his and shut the rest of the Bucks O down. With Bogut out the Grizz should have a decided advantage on the front line - at least with Marc and Z'bo on the floor. Should be a very interesting games pitting two teams with totally different make ups.

Grizz should get this win because of the front court and being at home.

Last game would have been nice to be able to bring a guard off the bench to defend Williams.
Same guy could help on Jennings tonight. I think Farmer might be a good fit for that role.

Another good test.

jennings will go off for 50, unless we move Mayo over to he PG.

Hell, baron got 2 fouls on every PG in the first half the other night.

TO THINK, WE PASSED ON JENNINGS AND TYREKE in the DRAFT, for a C that will never amont to anything in the league. Thabeet is a Poor Man Version on Mutombo, and half the player.

Neither did Bill Simmons, but who's right now? It's just foolish to hate or dislike anything... its not a matter of opinion, its a matter of not being objective and partial to the truth...

Thabeet's getting better every game.

I am glad you have made your career decisions on every player 15 games into their career though.

I trust thabeet and i think he can improve a lot but the thing is we didnt need a C. Gasol can cover that spot very well and our needs was to get a reliable PG.

anyway, i havent said i hate jennings. I just said i dont like the guy. maybe as years goes by he may change.

The Grizzlies need to double him off pick and rolls and make him pass the ball.

Jennings is showing he can hit from the perimeter with regularity. Put the pressure on Carlos Delfino and Charlies Bell to make shots.

I hope they pack FedexForum but you know Memphis people are slow to catch the news so they might not even realize Jennings is so good to watch tonight. But I hope it's packed and this game lives up to what I think will be a great shoot out. I agree OJ Mayo should elevate his game tonight and make it his personal quest to stop Jennings and be the hero :P

It would be good if Mayo can blow up in this game. He hasn't had an explosive game since the road game @ Denver.
